Avengerland Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

tsiolkovsky: Very sadly it appears the cache has gone for the 4th time. I've been checking this on a weekly basis since mid-summer and it seems the location has been compromised. Apologies to all those who tried to find it and couldn't and equally thanks to everyone who did.

Geocache Description:


AVENGERLAND refers to the area within half an hour's drive of the Borehamwood and Pinewood film studios where series such as THE AVENGERSTHE SAINTTHE BARON and many more classic television programmes did their location filming.

However there is something utterly Avengerland about the posted co-ordinates for this cache.   I could just imagine John Steed and Emma Peel having a fight with villains at this airstrip.

 

so to find the cache all you've got to do is to answer the following questions:  

Who was Steed’s controller when he was working with Mrs Gale?

  • If it was Aunty: A = 7
  • If it was Mother: A = 8
  • If it was One Ten: A = 9

Which of the following was NOT driven by Purdey?

  • If it was not a Yellow MGB: B = 4
  • If it was not a Yellow Rover Saloon: B = 6
  • If it was not a Yellow Triumph TR7: B = 8

What the undertaker from “Bizarre” known as:

  • If it was “Bagpipes” Happychap: C = 7
  • If it was “Hickey” Happychap: C = 5
  • If it was “Jessop” Happychap: C = 3

Who was Dr Keel’s Assistant?

  • If it was Olive: D = 0
  • If it was Rhonda : D = 3
  • If it was Carol: D = 6

Who invented the Cybernauts?

  • If it was Armstrong: E = 2
  • If it was Kane: E = 1
  • If it was Beresford: E = 0

Where did Mrs Gale send a Christmas card to Steed from ?

  • If it was Las Vegas: F = 9
  • If it was Miami: F = 0
  • If it was Fort Knox: F = 1

Black Jamie, the ghost who haunts Castle D’Eath is:

  • If he is a  headless horseman: G = 0
  • If he is a phantom piper: G = 9
  • If he is a ghostly child: G = 5

How does Steed like his tea stirred?

  • If it is clockwise: H = 3
  • If it is anti-clockwise: H = 1
  • If he never stirs his tea: H = 8

The Cache, which is within 2 miles of the posted co-ordinates, can be found at:

The cache itself is a wee bit small but is big enough to hold a quid for the FTFer.
