Geocache Description:

The above Co-ords are not the location of the cache, but it is located within a few hundred metres.

The above Co-ords are for the car park of a popular suburban park with a great kids play area, picnic shelters, bbqs and toilets. If you visit on a weekend you may even score a piece of birthday cake.

K8 has placed a cache in this park area, but unfortunately in her haste to list the cache, she dropped the co-ords and they broke into 6 pieces, (S/E degrees, minutes and minute decimals).

She threw them on my desk and asked me to repair them (as daughters do).

I’m afraid my desk is a little untidy (see photo) and to make matters worse the numbers seem to have disguised themselves.

To sort out the co-ordinates you’ll need some keen observation and a little GPS logic.

For those who enjoy an observation puzzle, the photo also has the name of the cacher and an object representing each of our previous caches: “Tennis Anyone”, “The 39 Steps”, “More Steps”, “Puzzle” series (1 object), “Peace” and “Has the Postie Been”

Solution is in the cache.
