Jam Series - Thick as Thieves - GC12H0X

This was the second of three caches we found today. I'd been down here before for another cache which now seems to have gone and so I had a fair idea of where to go. There was a new road here now, which when I first came was just being started, but we stuck to the footpath at the side.

On arriving at Ground Zero there were several candidates that matched the clue, and one particularly had a great little hole in which to hide something - but it wasn't there. After a quick look round some other likely places Sarah went back to the first spot and nearly broke her ankle down a boggy hole which appeared out of nowhere.  This shook her up a little and she very quickly decided that she was going to give up on this one.  I, on the other hand, persevered and eventually found it, in a familiar container for this series - it's a pity that many of the others are now defunct.

This is a great location and you almost feel that you are out in the countryside instead of in reclaimed industrial wasteland where there was once a colliery. One day I'll have a good look around the adjacent flash for birdies - it looks like it could be a good place for them.
