Geocache Description:


The have been several people called "Sir Francis" over time.

What has this got to do with this cache I hear you ask?
Well nothing as it turn out except Francis is the street where it best to access this cache from. Park at the bottom of the street, get the geo dog as they are allowed in this park. The cache is a short 200 metre walk along a well mown path. We disturbed a couple of kangaroos lying under the trees.

The cache is a small container so small swaps are welcome.
