Purely a GA day today, and this is one of several within easy striking distance of other caches nearby. #6 for the morning, and w're curious about the structures all wrapped up in tarpaulins close to GZ. Thaks Trimbletas for another good 'un.
Out and about on a sunny but quite windy afternoon, not many people on the nearby track which gave us a good opportunity to search without looking too dodgy. Good coordinates and a useful hint really help the find. Thanks for the cache
If my memory is correct the Leven Pony Club grounds used to be where the model railway is now [relocated to North Motton many years ago]and this loading ramp was where the horses used to be unloaded from the trucks. This was 50 plus years ago when no-one but the very elite had horse boxes and the rest of us plebs had our horses travel to events in cattle trucks.
After checking out a few likely spots according to the clue the cache was found fairly quickly.
Bit of activity at the model railway today and it looked like a working bee was happening but we were nicely hidden from them.
Thanks Trimbletas.

Heading home after a day of caching down the coast we needed to find another nano to complete our quest on the Cacheopoly board.
This one fitted our requirements, made a quick find at GZ of another cool nano
Many thanks Trimbletas for your cache placement.

Noticed the publication of this cache as we headed west so, after checking out the web page, we decided to look for it on our way home. Mrs y'stassie decided on the walking option and soon found herself approaching GZ. Last time she was in the area there was an off lead Staffy chasing a native hen up the ramp. She was glad to have the area to herself today. Good coordinates soon had her extracting the interesting little container and signing the log.
Thanks for this cache Trimbletas. The 3D printer is certainly being put through its paces.

I was out and about early this morning nabbing another cache when this one popped up.
Back out at gz it didn't take long to find another nifty well hidden container.
A bonus ftf as well.
Many thanks Trimbletas for another enjoyable find...much appreciated...cheers ST.
