Geocache Description:

Another quick Post Box series cache.


Tolliver Groat was one of the last two postmen remaining at the Royal Mail. As he severely distrusts doctors, he brews his own medicine and has his own little cures to keep himself in good condition. Paradoxically, several years' worth of an application of bread pudding and goose grease to his chest actually did save his life when he was attacked by a wild banshee who mistook him for Moist von Lipwig because he was wearing the Hat at the time. This meant that the long killing claws merely gashed his chest and did not penetrate any deeper. His trousers, permeated as they were with charcoal, nitre and sulphur to keep disease at bay, were the only known subject of a controlled detonation in a medical environment. As he resisted all attempts to give him a bath while in the care of the Lady Sybil Free Hospital, Dr John Lawn was more than happy to discharge him into the care of Moist, for a large "donation" of course. Tolliver is fluent in the only rhyming slang known to the Discworld that does not actually rhyme, and would be delighted that a descendant of the Royal Mail is still in use today.

The published coordinates will take you to the entrance of a small shopping centre. Facing due WEST, walk 15 meters into the centre. You will come to a device that will assist you in descending 4m at an angle of 45 degrees. You will see a water fountain ahead of you, and beyond the fountain, a corridor. Walk to the end of this corridor, again walking WEST, for about 60 meters. When you can walk no further, you will be within 5m of the cache.
