Single Cache Clear Up

Raining today, but we decided to brave the elements and go out clearing up some of the single caches yet to do, so more a cache and dash type of day.

GC1KGE8 - Confused - Am I in Scotland or England?
Been meaning to to this cache everytime I've been past it. Today we parked up in the garden centre and wentn to find this one. It was hidden in England, so signed the log and moved it to Scotland. if your confused check the pictures in the log. There is a great ride on railway at this GC (also stands for Garden Centre ;) ) thats worth a visit with the kids when its running and not raining.

GC1PC3A - Smell of Success
Quick stop of the car for this one. Standard 35mm film canister. Signed log and moved on.

GC1P7MJ - SideTracked - Adlington
My second in the SideTracked series of caches. Wondering now how many stations I've been to over the years and how many of these caches ive been so near to. Hindsight is wonderful at times.

GC24CV4 - The Bollington Box
Second visit here as the first time the cache had been muggled and stolen. Great to see that it is back in action, although the caching container needs a little work on it due to water getting in. Picked up the "Gib0r's Inaugural Travel Bug dog Tag" from this cache and dropped in the two Travel Bugs I had in my inventory from previous caches.

GC1P7MW - SideTracked - Prestbury
After a drive down the A523 it was over to Prestbury railway station for another SideTracked cache. Took a little looking but found it in the end. Signed log and moved on to get another couple of caches, however there was a diversion on the roads so we could not get to where we wanted to go. Maybe next time.

GC1PGQX - Strole In A Park - Park Up
Had to mark this as a DNF as after a couple of mins looking, a chap turned up to work on the model railway line they are building there and challenged me as to what I was doing stood in the copse next to their workings. After a brief conversation thought best to leave it and try the next one on my list. Suggested that this cache be moved somewhere else in the park as they will be working on the railway till Christmas and then it should be open. Its going to be a high Muggle area shortly.

GC2DB0P - Hidden Cheadle Hulme - Hesketh Park
Our last for today. How many Ivy covered trees!! Eventually found the right one and picked up another Travel Bug "Three Peaks Challenge - England" will need to get this heading Northwards towards Ben Nevis which is next on its list of challenges.
