Geocache Description:

This cache is part of the "Cache the WORLD" series-- caches created to bring interesting containers, hides, and techniques from around the world to the cachers of Okinawa. Many of these caches will be unfamiliar, some you might want to use yourself (dozo!), and others haven't been done here for good reason, but each is common *somewhere* in the world. If you've cached off-island, you are invited to add to this series and share your own "Cache the WORLD" experience.

COUNTRY: U.K.- England
LOCALE: South Telford
CACHE: This cache is ordinary and simple in absolutely every way except one: its camo. One word: "Sockoflage." Don't have time to spray paint your container? Worried about a glimmer of light reflecting off of your beautiful camo job and giving away the location of your cache? No problem- just stuff it down a black sock and stick it pretty much anywhere and you're good to go! Does that sound gross and ridiculous? I certainly thought so, and the first time I came across a 'sockoflaged' cache in England I thought it was somebody's idea of a joke, but no, I found 
loads of them as I cached my way around the area. So I bring this cache to you with apologies, but I just had to share the horror. I am not recommending that this camo technique be repeated here in Oki. If it has rained recently I recommend bringing gloves or someone with a strong constitution, 'cause England is a damp place as well and every single sock I touched was soggy and gross. At least I can give you my personal assurance that this sock has never been worn.  In any case, let me reiterate: this is an otherwise ordinary hide. It's best accessed from inside the little park. Have fun!

-200 yen FTF prize, because you deserve something for touching the sock.-

**Congrats to Bobby_MD for the FTF!**
