Geocache Description:


This is a mystery where to find the final coordinates you need to answer questions based on Christmas in the U.K. Any Answers which are words can be converted by simply counting the letters in your answer.

The formula is; N 54° 36.(Q1)(Q2)(Q3) W 005° 53.(Q4)(Q5)(Q6)

1)  Where did "All I want for Christmas is you" place in the UK charts in 2024?

2) What Manchester born  person said "Don't let the past steal the present. This is the message of Christmas: We are never alone?" (Surname)

3) Which Queen described a year as an Annus Horribilus during her Christmas speech?

4) How many Christmas speeches will King Charles have given after his one in 2024?

5) "I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year" was quoted by which Portsmouth born writer in his Christmas themed book. (Surname)

6) Always _______ but never Christmas was said by Belfast born C.S Lewis.

The container is a camouflaged micro on an island sandwiched between 2 paths and hopefully at the solved coordinates. Which may be a bit fuzzy as have been averaged out between 3 measurements.

Good Luck and Happy Caching!
