Nice and quiet while we looked for this although had to pause while a small child had a look round. Enjoyed finding my first magnetic geocache. Smile Log book full so needs replacing!

At last found it. this have been one of those caches which i haven't found and haven't stopped to think about. i was trying to find it 3 times. First time i was looking for long time and only after while decided to check logs. found out i'm not the only one who have tried to find it but haven't found. Second time was in rush and don't know why believed more in coordinated than in hint. after while checked logs where someone was mentioning that coordinates are bit wrong. this time it took us only few minutes to find it. found with Smecers TFTC

Geo daddy found another easy find once we worked out the clue !!!
 
27-Dec-12
Third find for the evening! The log book is full so would be worth replacing. I think we were trying to be too clever with finding this one. Mr Clug was googling what relation a nose has to the GZ!

Had 20 minutes to spare before work nearby this morning so popped by for a quick-ish find between muggles. Sl. Tftc.
 
12-Dec-12
Found with a Wise Monkey prior to attending the Twelve event. Met up with Spire67 and PlasmaWave who arrived just as we retrieved the cache. TFTC
 
12-Dec-12
Another quick find with several of us around, so plenty of screen cover to protect the cache from muggles.

Walk on the Wildside had said our goodbyes to our friends (old and new) at the event, and we were out looking for more caches. I was hoping to reach 1212 finds today, and we only had a limited amount of time for caching. I was at 1205 finds, and this was the last of the city centre caches we could go for.

As we walked past the cathedral, I read out the clue.

"I have this really weird image in my head!", laughed WOTWS, as we continued on our way.

We rounded a corner, and I spotted a statue of a man on horseback. "You reckon...?" I asked

WOTWS was still chuckling at the thought of picking a statue's nose as we approached GZ. And then I saw what was there, and I burst out laughing too!

Fortunately, as time was limited, I found this cache quite quickly.

On to 1207...
 
I was starting to get some strange thoughts as i was walking along with my boyfriend mr wizz after coming from the near by flash mob event, don't pick your nose again? i don't even remember that i picked it earlier today? * deep in thought* oh well.......

So let's go pick a nose to find a cache! i was thinking as i was looking around at all the possibility's, is there really a nose that you can fit a cache up? and would you stand there with your finger's shoved up someones hooter? there is only one way to find out......................

Surely not!!! as i spotted something looming ahead of me, just think of this situation, you climb up and get into position, you lift your arm up, that's if you can reach that is given that this nose is some way up, point your finger and in you go!! you feel something hard, you pull it out and shout B-O-G-E-Y'S!!!!!!! in an elongated tone, to the shocked crowd who had gathered round at some point watching in amazement at some loon climbing up this statue just to pick this poor guy's nose!!!! and to the local police patrol who tell's you to climb down and you have to explain what the heck you was doing on the statue......... er....picking one's hooter officer sir............

Gladly it was not the object ( or nose as you would put it) in question as we walked on by..... i really did not fancy explaining my action's to the local police...... and neither would mr wizz i would of thought........

Mr wizz then gave out a laugh, he obviously had clocked on what we had to search, me, well i was none the wiser, THIS is what we had to search...........

i was still the none the wiser........

Then the explanation came......something i did not even guess, well i do now..........

well as you can guess the log was signed and then replaced and the thought of picking a nose was a distant memory.......

or was it as i was getting some strange thoughts again.......

and no, i did not pick my nose if that's what you was thinking.

TFTC.
 
Having found the old one just had to pop out and get this one while on a night out, short walk from the silk mill while having some 'air'
