I! Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 From memory, that's called something like Hell Bay. It's on Bryher in the Isles of Scilly.From memory? I'm impressed! Oh, mustn't forget ... DING! Quote Link to comment
+Simply Paul Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 To be fair it was a memorable cache and I found it only a couple of years ago. Now, if I could remember the GC number too, that'd be impressive! I've some rare busy days coming up so I invite someone else to post a picture Quote Link to comment
I! Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 OK, then if you don't mind, a trickier one ... what cache is this man guarding? Quote Link to comment
+Haggis Hunter Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 OK, then if you don't mind, a trickier one ... what cache is this man guarding? Yep, that's trickier alright. Unless I am missing a trick you will only get that if you have actually visited the cache! Those pillars could be anywhere in the world, and I know I haven't got the time to check all of the street view maps Quote Link to comment
I! Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 OK then, let's zoom out a bit. Quote Link to comment
+MartyBartfast Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Well that stonework looks like the Old Lady of Threadneedle Street to me, but Streetview isn't working for me at the mo so I can't check. If it is the Old Lady then the cache would be one of RSA or Ye Old Royal Exchange (which has the co-ords out and isn't adjacent to the bank, but is actually across the road) Quote Link to comment
I! Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Ye Old Royal Exchange (which has the co-ords out and isn't adjacent to the bank, but is actually across the road) In view of the monetary theme ... KER-CHING! Quote Link to comment

I! Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 http://coord.info/GC1RNBQ The vessel began her maiden voyage from Southampton, bound for New York City on 10 April 1912, with Captain Edward J. Smith in command.[1] As Titanic left her berth, her wake caused the liner SS New York, which was docked nearby, to break away from her moorings, whereupon she was drawn dangerously close (about four feet) to Titanic before a tugboat towed New York away.[31] The incident delayed departure for about half an hour.[32] After crossing the English Channel, Titanic stopped at Cherbourg, France, to board additional passengers and stopped again the next day at Queenstown (known today as Cobh), Ireland.[1] As harbour facilities at Queenstown were inadequate for a ship of her size, Titanic had to anchor off-shore, with small boats, known as tenders, ferrying the embarking passengers out to her. When she finally set out for New York, there were 2,240 people aboard.[33] Quote Link to comment
