Geocache Description:


Following on from the abandoned kayaking near the Dhoor, and a long walk from Ramsey via Andreas to Jurby he has now decided to make another attempt at finding his missing cousins Bernie and Harry, plus a return visit to recover the box he left behind on the last time. Some how or other he managed to turn right before Andreas village, then realised his mistake and took a left onto the Regaby road. Now that could have led to tears (again?) as Regaby is another place like Grenaby, all roads lead to it but it's so small it isn't spotted on the way through leading to confusion as the signs start to point the opposite way to your direction of travel. Arriving at the crossroads he got distracted by the Sulby Giant's green hand and stopped for a look. "My Lorrs, he must'ha been a big fella, I'm glad I didn't meet and fall out with him!". Wonderment over our hero sets off again, the wrong way. Are we surprised? Not much. Fairly soon he comes on a sign he misreads and thinks it's telling him to 'Stop in One Hundred Yards'. "What's this all about? I haven't been in any yards yet, never mind a hundred of them, How long am I supposed to stop for, this could take forever Yessir? The whole job's gone to pot, no box and no Bernie nor Harry neither! I reckon I might just head for the main road and catch a bus south. I know where I am when I'm there." This last statement could be disputed by those patient souls who have followed his travels. All you need to do is read the sign and see if it reads as he read it. Simple really. Take care exiting this road at either end, vision sideways is not good. Going from Andreas towards the TT course there's one more stage in this drawn-out saga!
