Geocache Description:


To celebrate my 30th birthday milestone I have placed 3 Geocaches in my local area, 1 for each decade, all you have to do is solve the puzzle and then head to GZ to find the hidden cache. 

MCMXC - GC8ZG0Q

MM - GC8ZG27 

MMX - GC8ZG3Q 

Note the Cache is not at the listed co-ordinates. To locate GZ and find the cache you need to answer the following questions;

A = The month which the Hubble Telesope was launched.

B = The month which Nelson Mandela was released from prison.

C = The date of the month which English and French Engineers finally meet 40m under the Engish Channel.

D = The date of the month which the Leaning Tower of Pisa was closed to publich due to safety concerns.

E = The month which Margaret Thatcher resigned as Priminister of the United Kingdom.  

 

Use your answers to solve the below;

N 53 0(B+A).(D-C)(A+C)C W001 C(E-(B+C)).(A-C)A(D-B)

 

NOTE: Please approach GZ with care, the terrain can be hard going and challenging depending on which side you come from, relative to the other 2 caches in this series. You are looking for a medium sized container, which has plenty of space for TBs and SWAG.

Please return the cache as found, and no spoilers in the comments.  

GOOD luck fellow Geocahers, and i look forwards to any feedback you may have to improve the discription/clue/cache.
