Sarahjones65 and I decided to make this cache our last today before returning home for brunch. After three successive DNF's and two finds today, we were hoping to even things up with this one.
I see George quite regularly as I drive past the garden centre near this location (at least I think its St. George, it's a large knight on horseback), so I knew roughly where we were heading.
We parked on the opposite side of the road down a small side road next to a timber workshop. After crossing back over the main road, the entrance to the path was just past some newish offices and through a wooden gate at the end of a private car parking area.
The path was muddy, but the recent temperatures seem to have dried a lot of it out. The branches of several trees did make for a very scratchy, twisty, crouchy walk. When we got to GZ we thought we found the item mentioned in the clue right away - no such luck!
It took another ten to fifteen minutes of searching numerous items that seemed to match the clue description before Sarah came up with the goods. The cache was swimming in water again, but the log was dry. We took nothing and left nothing and when we replaced the cache we turned it upside down so hopefully water won't be able to collect in it again.
Satisfied with our last three results, we returned home via 'MeatMart' where we bought our Sunday Roast for Mother's Day.
