Geocache Description:

It has been agreed that I can extend this series of caches to a location in Hexham. I hope you enjoy the search.


I don't want you to think that I'm paranoid but I do worry about how many ways there are today for Big Brother to keep track of us.One of the most innocuous seeming strategies is postcodes so I thought I'd base a cache on them.

There are six initial elements to this puzzle that need to be connected.All have two words and to get the numbers you will need you need to add together the alphabetical values (A=1 Z=26) of the initial letters of both words.

The first element - A - is the connector.

To discover the other five elements you need to start from the following postcodes which are listed in alphabetical order.

EC4V 5JB

G84 7LZ

ME18 5DU

TW19 4BT

WC2N 8HL

To make things a litle more interesting I've mixed them up. You need to rearrange the second parts to give five that each relate to only one address.

NB WC2N 5JB qualifies but is not one of the five you need.

When you have identified the five places use the connector to find the elements, substitute the values then arrange them in the correct order to give you B C D E and F.

Go to N 54.767(A+B+C+D+E+F) +2F W 002.75(A+B+C+D+E+F)+A+D+2

The cache is NOT hidden there and I'd ask everyone not to cause concern to local residents.

You will see there two more words that are appropriate to the theme of the cache.

Add separately the alphabetical values of all the letters in each word to give you Y and Z respectively.

The cache is hidden at N 54 58.2Y+6 W 002 04.2Z-14
