Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the published coordinates which is at "Frays college" where X was a teacher. To find the cache you need to work out who X is. Then solve the puzzle.

In 1932 X was just starting his career as the writer. He was working on a book. However, x also found time to write a play for the boys at The Hawthorns School, Hayes, where x was a teacher. The school has gone but the Fountain House Hotel stands on the site. In 1933 X moved to Frays College, Uxbridge. One afternoon, whilst out for a ride on a motorcycle, x was caught in a downpour of rain. Without protective clothing, x was soon soaking wet. Pneumonia followed. X was treated in Uxbridge Cottage Hospital. When x left there to convalesce in Southwold, Suffolk, he did not return to this part of London. The cache is at: OP-EH-FO-EX-RN-VT-HU-IC-BV-HU-IR-IN-PR-VD-PO-TD-FH-IV-TD-FH-IV-RE-VN-VR-NL-VA-HW-VA-HW-VA-HW-HV-TV-BV-RC-FU-UN-PR-VD-HV-PN-UI-HV-PW
