I parked in the car park and wandered over, the cache was a nice quick find. I signed the log behind the tree and once the cache was replaced I went over to see the sheep. The male was half way across but was still pretty impressive. Thanks for the cache and showing me these interesting sheep.

As mentioned below with greg3's help Lesley has re-hidden the cache.

The Grove is closing for the winter and Titan and his family are off to their winter pastures. Most of Titan's brood will be returning next year. However Titan himself has apparently made it clear that this field is only big enough for one ram so the male lamb is off to find his own field.

Lesley and Mr Nilbog's mum chcecked on the cache and had the following report.

"Titan is back in his field along with his ladyfriend of last year, Elsie, and her lovely little black twins as well as his other ladyfriend Rosie with her even smaller black twins."

Titan is off to greener pastures for the winter but the cache is still in place.
Titan is expected to return once the weather warms up.

We sat in the car for a while on a wet Sunday afternoon watching Titan grazing in the rain - first member of this breed we've seen. The cache was potted by the shorter member of the team and retrieved by the taller one.

Exchanged geocoins:
Out - Gele Bussie and Castle Man's Sweden Traveler
In - WDD 2007 Commemorative and Now we are one

Thanks

Had a wet day in Ramsey so decided to go to the museum. Took this one in afterwards but took a while to find this well-hidden cache.

Poor old Mrs D was too short to find this one ha ha! We enjoyed seeing the sheep and also visiting the interesting house. Note that National Trust memebers can get to see inside the house for free (and all the other Story of IOM locations).
Thank you for the interesting location.

Busy cache today. Had a quick look and did not find it so went and had a pot of tea for two with Nibbo in the Grove cafe. Found the cache straight after, well saw it first. Glad Nibbo was with me as on my own I would never have reached it. Took nothing, left a TT 2008 pin badge. Discovered the coin, did not take.

Having found the general location, Gps’s were going around in circles. Solution . go for a cup of tea. Cache found by Cushag as she was asked to leave the grounds as smoking is not permitted on the lawn outside of the Conservatory, banished to a neural area – the car park. From there located the correct position of the cache, still a bit of a stretch.
Took: TT 2006 pin badge.
Left; Yellow hippo with red heart key ring
Discovered Colorado geocoin.
Fourth visitor today.
One of Titans offspring has two horns developing whilst the other has three. The Old Man himself was keeping cool in the shade.

Cheers, NIBBO

The bloke in the ticket office was a bit of a worry, after spotting the cache we had to use diversionery tactics & wait for a group of visitors to keep him ocupied while I went in & grabed it.

A nice easy find on a beautiful, calm and warm evening. I was able to reach the cache quite easily Cool.
The cache is in a fine place for the island visitor.

Took nothing, left a Gecko geocoin (which wants to travel round Europe - I nearly took it all the way home, but was asked not to).
