Geocache Description:


So, you think you know Christchurch??

You may live here, or be thinking about visiting here if you are reading cache listings for Christchurch... but how well do you really know Christchurch?? The following questions will tell.

1. Christchurch has an area of AX square kilometers
2. Christchurch was originally known as XXX? (Number of letters = B)
3. There are two main rivers in Christchurch. The avon and the____? (Number of letters = C)
4. First digit of population of Christchurch = D
5. Third digit in the year that the District of Christchurch was established = E
6. What is the name of the spit in Christchurch? Number of letters = F
7. In which century was the house at 3 Bridge Street built? Second digit = G
8. There was severe flooding in Christchurch this year. However it was in another year that locals awoke to flooding due to a river bursting its banks in the early hours of the morning of a public holiday. Last digit of the year = H

Cache is not at, but the following coordinates will help you infer the location:

Where:
a = A
b = C - D
c = E - H
d = F - H - A
e = F
f = E - D
g = G - F
h = G - H
