4 weddings and a funeral Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Freddo: Archiving this cache for now. The final location has been taken over by bees. I will ask Honeysuckers to retrieve the cache when they are in town. In addition the elm at the final location has died. I suspect the council will be replacing the tree shortly. So long for now.

Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood,
For nothing now can ever come to any good.
