Geocache Description:

Originally set by McDehack, then enhanced by Master Mariner.

 

The London Rainbow Cache series comprises seven virtual caches that can be logged individually. Information obtained from each cache can then be used to find an eighth, physical cache.  

The London Rainbow Cache 6 - Indigo

This is the sixth of seven virtual caches each of which has a connection to the colours of the rainbow. The sites, for all the virtual caches, are a little bit off the well beaten tourist tracks but take the visitor to interesting places, in and around London, that would not normally be seen.

The caches can be done in any order but information will need to be collected from all the caches to help find the final cache.

You could stop here for a meal if you could afford it. With your back to the "colour" turn to your right and walk about 60m up the hill. What you are looking for is evidence of a famous author who had apartments here as well as offices for his magazine.

To claim this as a find please post (NOT EMAIL as it fills my inbox) a photo of EACH person logging (within 24 hours) with your GPSr at the location (WITHOUT REVEALING ANY OF THE ANSWERS) AND using the below answers, send a blank email to forenamesurnameABCDEFGH@howeasy.org (eg mickeymouse19022002@howeasy.org). Make sure you include your caching name (eg rodz) as the subject of the mail or your log may be deleted. You will receive a confirmation email (remember to check your spam folder too) almost instantly if your answers are correct, at which time you may log your find.

a. Who was the author?
b. What years did he have apartments and offices here (ABCD-EFGH)? D is NOT 0.

 
To locate the final cache use the years ABCD and EFGH.
((EFGH - ABCD) - 10) = position "N2" and
 (D - (C + E)) = position "N3".

Latitude = N 12 34.567
Longitude = W 123 45.678
