Found this afternoon. The park was really really busy and we had to pluck up a lot of courage to phone - we've never done it before but doing it in a city where you are not known is the way to take the plunge. Cache was an easy find, ! Sat right next to it! Fun cache! TFTC

The GPS was having all sorts of problems logging on, so while we were waiting we just used the map and our caching instincts and found the cache straightaway. SL TFTC

The nearby food tents are tempting.

Well - this must the first DNF of its type! The cache was inaccessible due to a Gangsters protest on the Manchester Wheel! (see below) MrJimDG and I couldn't get to it due to the large police corden... Sad Oh well - another time maybe! http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2014/may/06/manchester-gangster-scales-ferris-wheel-protest

TFTC anyway!
