Geocache Description:

A nice little maths teaser to keep your minds active. Thanks to Hobo and Little Miss for the idea.

Annie Cacher has found 22 more caches than her caching auntie Barby.

Caron Cacher has found 15 caches less than her caching auntie Barby.

Barby Cacher has found B caches.

The product of the number found by Annie and the number found by Caron is 210.

How many have been found by Annie Cacher (A), Barby Cacher (B) and Caron Cacher (C)?

The cache is not at the co-ordinates given above. It is at:

N51 (2B) . (2C-1) (A-2B+C+2) (B-4C) E000 (C-1) (C+2) . (B - 3C + 3) (A-2B+2) (A-2B-2

The footpath will take you along the side of the farmer's fields to begin with. However after going over the bridge the footpath takes you through the next field. The footpath is signposted but, at the time of laying the cache, the farmer has planted his crops over this so you will need to walk across the field for a few feet to reach the tractor tyre track. Please keep your dog's under close control i.e. at heel or on a lead.
