Geocache Description:

This is number four of five themed caches around Gerrards Cross common. This is 'How Do You Do It' by Gerry And The Pacemakers which hit the No1 spot on 13th April 1963, 50 years before this cache was published.

Gerrards Cross common covers around 32 Hectares and is immediately to the North of the A40. West Common and East Common form a curved Northern edge and it is bisected North / South by Packhorse Road.
There are areas of open grassland which include a children's play area and a football pitch. There are also two ponds and two large wooded areas. It is in these areas of mainly silver birch with some holly that the caches are placed.
There is a network of paths crossing the common and the caches are all quite close to a path. The main paths are pushchair and wheelchair friendly, side paths can vary in accessibility. There is a new wheelchair friendly path skirting the common along West and East Commons. Cycling is permitted with priority given to walkers.
There is free parking in marked bays ( 1 hour limit except evenings and Sundays) around both East and West Common, but unrestricted to the Eastern end, close to cache No 1. There is also a Pay & Display car park in Packhorse Road, while the supermarket near the railway station allow up to 3 hours free parking.
This cache was placed with the kind permission of Gerrards Cross Parish Council.
The answer to the title of the song is 'carefully, from the middle'. There is no room for swaps or trackables in this cache. Please put the paper log into the top of the container to make it easier to remove next time, thanks.
