Snooker Loopy
The Snooker Loopy caches are colour coordinated caches, starting with the white cue ball and 15 x red caches (mainly small size) and followed by 6 coloured caches (these are larger size) with room for colour coordinated swaps - please keep to the colour them for swaps.
WARNING - PLEASE FOLLOW THE DIVERSION ROUTE. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CROSS THE MUD CAUSED BY HEAVY MACHINERY.
The Route
The Loop(y) is about 8K and mainly on footpaths, either through fields, woodland, along the bank of River Wallington or behind the solar farm but there is also a short section along the road
Parking
There is parking for one or two cars on Sheepwash Lane not far from the start of the series (GCB5RN9).
Alternatively if you want a longer walk there is plenty of parking at Purbrook Heath and the loop can be combined with the Sheepwash Round-up
Letterbox caches
All caches are at the published coordinates and contain letterbox stamps - these are not swaps and must be left in the cache. The ink stamps are in separate double potted containers to ensure the ink does not leak into the rest of the cache.
Please feel free to collect a copy of the stamps in your notepad. This is particularly encouraged if you are caching with children to add to their enjoyment of the series as they can collect the different designs.
Swaps
Where the caches are large enough for swaps please only place the themed colour items in the cache.
If you are unable to keep to the themed colour please do not swap.
You may take something but please replace with an item of equal or higher value. the trinkets are not 'prizes' so DO NOT help yourself to them without swapping.
If caching with children it may be worth planning some swaps in advance so they are not disappointed if they see something they would like in the cache and do not have a suitable replacement.
You will need swaps in red, yellow, green, brown, blue, pink and black themed items.
Logbooks
All caches have logbooks which must be signed. Not all caches have a pen, so bring one (and a spare) with you. If caches are claimed as found online without a signature on the physical logbook, they will be deleted.
I hope you enjoy 'potting' the caches and collecting the stamps - although I'm pretty sure there will be some muggles out there that would say .........

The Cache
The cache is a small tub in a black bag and contains a letterbox stamp. Please bring your own pen.
