Geocache Description:


You will not find the cache at the published location.

Although, you may encounter some people chasing a little white ball
around a paddock and whacking the hell out of it with sticks.
Don’t laugh at them. Remember, they have sticks.

The Puzzle

The kids I stumbled across in a park one day (see Numismatists
GC2NVPM) have now grown up. But, they still bicker and argue. Their
collections have grown as they have and, once again, they have lost
them.

When I interrupted their fight and asked them what they had lost
this time they replied:

Sam. “Sir Charles Kingsford Smith , Francis Greenway,
Sir Joseph Banks and John Macarthur”
Stanley. “Two Sir Charles Kingsford Smiths, Sir Joseph
Banks, John Macarthur and Queen Elizabeth II”
Steven. “Sir Douglas Mawson, Baron Florey, Sir Charles
Kingsford Smith, Francis Greenway, Sir Joseph Banks and Queen
Elizabeth II”

Elaine. “Sir Douglas Mawson, two Sir Charles Kingsford
Smiths and Sir Joseph Banks”
Eleanor. “Nothing. Ha!”
Emma. “Nine Sir Douglas Mawsons and two John Macarthurs”

Once again, can you help them locate their lost treasure?

The Cache

A sistema with a few goodies for trade and a FTF prize for the quick off the mark. Themed swaps would be appreciated. And remember, trade up, trade even or don't trade.
