THE DAY’S STORY
A fun day of caching spent in the company of Moonshiner Extraordinaire (ME), up from Dublin for a few days, taking in caches located in Glencraig, Seahill, Helen’s Bay, Ballygilbert and Newtownards. When we ‘called it a day’ in Newtownards at around 5:00 pm, ME had managed to bag 25 finds along with 3 DNFs, while I had clocked just 2 finds and 2 DNFs.
The day ended with us both attending the special ‘GIFF 2015 (Newtownards, Co. Down)’ Event organised by sgtzara. But tomorrow is another day with two more ‘local’ events in the offing and a plan to help ME find a whole lot more caches in and around Holywood and its environs!
THIS CACHE
For some reason this cache and it’s ‘companion’ further on along the track of the old railway line through Newtownards hasn’t been totally off my radar. Although I’ve driven past this area countless times since these two caches were published, I’ve never given a second thought about going to find them. But today, with ME keen to find more caches in the town and at the same time enable me to ‘clock’ ones I’ve not yet found, they both suddenly became a priority target!
As for this cache, thankfully we managed to find it, though it took us a few minutes of searching all around GZ before we finally put our hands on the wee container.
Glad to be able to record a find here after or failure to locate its companion cache – N'ards Greenway #1 [GC4MYHD] – further up the ‘line’!

Had this one on the list to do a 'caretaker maintenance visit'. Alas, it seems all is well here.
Good cache,good clue,good spot.Tried to walk along the greenway from 1 the other day.VERY BAD move.Small hint from CO and got it this morning.
Found this one after only a few minutes of searching, good co-ords. Shame about the fly tippers dump nearby. SL.
