It is recommended budding detectives work with partners in teams of 4 or 5, you will need to use one of your teams “panda cars” to travel around the crime scenes. You will also need some specialist equipment,
- A CSI Photographer (person with a camera)
- A Writing Implement
- Car full of Petrol / Diesel
- GPS or Sat Nav
- Magnifying glass
- Mobile Phone
- Pair of Wellies
- Sense of Humour
To add to the fun it is requested that you dress up as fictional detectives, there will be additional prizes for the best costumes and you never know it may help solve the mystery
The rendezvous point is at the Cache Polis HQ, Scotland Yard - Bellsquarry Hall, Calder Road, Livingston, West Lothian, EH54 9AA. There is on street car parking around the hall. HQ will be open from 1:30 until 7ish and the hunt to solve the mystery will start at 2 prompt. Details of how the afternoon will work and how the mystery can be solved will be given to all at 2.
After the mystery is solved a high tea of sandwiches, tea and cakes will be served and prizes given to the teams most successful in solving the mystery. To help with this it would be appreciated if every team could donate a prize (around £8 - £10 per car).
How to book a place:
If you wish to form a detective team of 4 or 5 please email Team Incredible, giving your cachers names, number of people in your team and whether you have room for any other people within your car. All teams must be booked by Friday 25th April
Previous Haggis Hunts have been extremely popular events, places will be allocated on a strictly first come first served basis. We are limited to 12 teams on the road, a “Will Attend log”, does not guarantee you a place

Important Instructions: The Legal Bit
As cache/event setters we cannot accept any responsibility for any problems encountered during the day, including motoring accidents, speeding etc etc. It is entirely your responsibility if you take part in the event.
By setting out to this event, the driver is responsible for any third party action that may arise during the day. We as organisers are not responsible for any actions by yourself at all.
The route could be 40+ miles so please ensure you have a full tank of petrol. Full rules and instructions will be given on the day. Brief will be at 2 p.m. and first vehicle to depart soon after, so please be prompt!
Driver:
The Driver has to apply to all UK driving laws and therefore as such whilst the vehicle is moving must take no part in the treasure hunt (looking at GPS, reading maps, making decisions etc. He/she can take instructions from passengers as to which direction to drive in).
He/she must be in full control of the vehicle and even though the event is time based all speeding laws must be followed, and obviously drive slower if the conditions require.
Co-ordinates must be passed if the road conditions or traffic does not allow safe stopping.
It is the driver’s complete responsibility for the event and his/her passengers.
Driving faster than you would for an 'average' day out in the countryside is the driver’s responsibility, and I suggest for this event that it should not happen.
Note: To be within the law for mobile treasure hunts, this event comes under the category of ‘Navigational Scatter Events’.
