Geocache Description:


A series of 10 caches on a circular walk of around 2 miles to the NE of Baydon designed to be family friendly with no stiles and no cunning hides, all designed to be found. The caches are all novelty caches to match the theme of each cache and will hopefully appeal to children and adults alike. Each has a small jigidi puzzle to solve to get the co-ordinates.


A Bug's Life is a 1998 computer-animated action-adventure comedy-drama Disney/Pixar film directed by John Lasseter, with Andrew Stanton co-directing. The film is loosely inspired by the fable "The Ant and the Grasshopper" and the classic samurai film The Seven Samurai, it is the second Pixar movie and tells the story of an outcast inventor ant named Flik (Dave Foley), who recruits a group of circus bugs he mistakes for warriors when his colony is threatened by a group of grasshoppers.

Manny

Manny is a praying mantis with a British accent and the magician of P.T. Flea's circus troupe. He is very kind and courteous to his fellow circus troupe and other insects, especially the ants on Ant Island. He is also Gypsy's husband.

His act involves the "Chinese Cabinet of Metamorphosis," which is really the packaging of a Chinese Takeout. His magic act is not appreciated well by the flies in the usual audience, who insult him and throw berries at him, but the grasshoppers take it seriously, as he somehow improved. Manny is aggressive towards Flik at the beginning of the film, but grows to like him and in the end, convinces him to go back to the colony and help save the Queen from being killed. During this rescue, Manny does his magic act and is almost strangled by Hopper when he refuses to give up the Queen's location. He later pretends to die during the "bird attack," which makes P.T. Flea angry enough to set the fake bird on fire (not realizing that it was a hoax to scare the grasshoppers).
