AAND It's Good Night From Him Sociable Challenge Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Simply Paul: Picked up today while I was in the area for the following reasons:
The area is about to get very busy as a yard for HS2 is planned close by.
The area is prone to flooding and this has damaged the cache, it seems.
The area is a bit too far from home for regular maintenance visits, I've decided.
The cache is unfound since October.
The cache has only had 6 finds in 14 months - it's simply not popular in its current format/location.
I was in a bad mood.

Thanks everyone who found it - lodgebarn, you're still welcome to log a Find when you're eligable (I'll mail you) - and sorry to those who didn't - It's likely to live again as Sociable Challenge II, somewhere closer to home [:)]

Geocache Description:

Hidden to replace/recycle LB40-2011 - Life Begins. Again. BONUS! - This is an AAND-based puzzle cache, but with a Challenge element which also needs to be completed before logging online. IT IS NOT HIDDEN AT THE ABOVE CO-ORDS! However, it is within two miles of the them.

To find this cache: Locate one of the many hundreds of a certain colour of AAND (Aluminium Alpha-Numeric Disc) given away or supplied as a full set at or after the 2012 Oxford Geolympix. But which one? A clue is to be found on this page. Once located, head to N51° 5C.JGH W000° 5J.KHG

Or... solve the Comedy puzzle below, an alternative finding method as required by Groundspeak:
N51° 5 (_ Go Mad in Dorset. 1982) . (The _ Characters of Comedy: Guide to Sitcom Acting And Writing by Scott Sedita. 2005.) (_ Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps Please by Splodgenessabounds.) (The Now Show, Radio _. 1998-)

W000° 5 (Which of the 'Dumb Ways to Die'? "Eat a two week old unrefrigirated pie.") . (Inside No. _. 2014.) (_ Candles. 1972.) (Three Up, _ Down. 1985-89.)

Logging this Challenge cache: Before you can log this cache online, a task must be achieved. This is a Groundspeak-approved Challenge Cache logging requirement, based on these guidelines.

To log this cache online, you need to have attended and logged 100 or more Event caches, of any type. Standard meets, CITO events, Lost and Found (eg. 10 Years!), flashmob meets (listed as a standard event, but shorter) and Megas all count. Attended before or after publication of this cache, attending your own events and attended after physically finding this cache all count too, but you can't log your find on this page until I can see you've complied with the Challenge.

You can find your number of events attended on your profile page, on the Geocaches tab.
