Received a call from Psychrn, he couldn't find the cache.
Met him at GZ and came to the conclusion that the sign which held the cache had been removed. Will consider replacing or archiving.

Surprisingly not so many around the tower, Saturday midday. Made for an easy retrieval.

Only the bookshop open this morning, so very quiet around GZ, not my first choice for the hide, but soon had it in hand.

Second attempt, after having been scared off by excessive muggles. I found it about 5m from where the GPS pointed, but forgot to take a better reading.
Did my best "bored, waiting for someone to meet me, checking the time on my 'cellphone'" routine.

Definately an after hours grab.
2nd time lucky.
Local pizza wasn't bad either.

12.30pm. Had to fill in time while a hungry muggle sitting in the area consumed the biggest takeaway salad I have ever seen. Then a quick pick up and replace and it was all over. Thank you. David
Dropped in to this one on the way home. Quickly guessed the hide and retrieved quickly. Nice hide. TFTC
A few people around but no one seemed interested in what we were doing. Good thing. Guessed a few possible hiding spots and found it shortly later. Having worked up an appetite, we then went into the nearby cafe for a snack. TFTC.
Quick find while AC was at netball training.
Very public place, but thankfully not too many around this morning.
