Was a difficult one to find. But got there in the end with a bit of common sense.
Second visit here for us as last time we were obviously looking in all the wrong places due to the GPS leading us all over the place. This time the well placed cache was soon spotted TFTC.
where? oh, terrain check and confirmed there!
Divided and conquered was the strategy used here, as we did not want to pop up back and surprise a passing unsuspecting muggle!

After my first attempt at a cache in this area i wasn't to sure about coming back. Luckily i didn't get attacked like last time. This one took me a while to locate but with the help of a stick i was able to find it. Thanks. Dropped tb
Took a while to locate, but while searching was fairly sheltered from the rain. SL TFTC
Won't lie and say it was a quick find my GPS was being erratic, but I was determined and finally logic took over and I found it. TFTC
With Gaines'em, Spent quite a bit of time, but couldn't lay our hands on this one. We'll be back to try another day.
Took quite a while to find this one. Got it in the end, very well camouflaged. Picked up the TB. TFTC
It took us quite a while to find this but got there eventually.
In the mean time we found the container and some of the contents of Zorgon's old cache in this locality.
+ a marble, - nothing.

I seem to remember being here for another cache in the past. This one is well hidden and shouldnt stray. Thanks.
Good one. Found and left Irish blessings geocoin. Not many goodies for the junior cacher to choose so we added a couple of things.
7630 Glad to see all the problems with the previous cache here has now been laid to rest, nice to have a cache to celebrate I.G.D, and a great tribute to the “PC cache” many thanks.
Didn't like where the GPSr was pointing so put it away and went with gut feeling.

Nicely tucked away. Know the area reasonably well as I used to have a cache close by.
Many thanks
Many thanks
Coordinates were pointing me too far away to the same grovelly spot as last time, but found this time after a bit of help - phew!
Wow this one was annoying... Thanks must go to the quiltys for the actual find, I'd probably still be searching with there help.
Must of had about 10 visits to this location.

No trolls under the bridge this time, however due to low light conditions had to go fetch a light to assist in finding the cache.
On our way to get a torch we noticed someone I had seen before, wait it was HKCB who was here when we could not find this one last week.
Armed with a few more clues and sliding around in the wet conditions we finally found the cache, very clever hide.

Arrived at GZ just as it was starting to get dark and was talking with my kids about where it should be when we hear someone ask if we are looking for the cache.
Arrgghh, a troll? wait, no, its just another geocacher. HKCB was hiding under the bridge.
Looked around for a while but could not find it, also got dark pretty quick. Will come back when during the daylight hours for another look.

4458 Out on a frustrating Munzee raid in the Tron, swung by and picked up this new cache whilst in the area. Quick find - left a UK Travel Bug so hopefully the locals will move it on.

Familiar place but nicely hidden.

Damm, thought that I had a chance at this, however with failing batteries had to give it up and remember to take spares in future
