Dan Q did not find GCARTJD 5Gee, Under the Oak Tree

This one’s going to bug me! The second nearest cache to this week’s volunteering event accommodation and I had to DNF it!? Poked my fingers into every hidey hole I could find (while a nearby goose honked at me: maybe it was mocking me, or perhaps it was saying “it’s on your left” – afraid I don’t speak goose) before giving up. It’s right on my doorstep, though, so I may well be back for another attempt!

Dan Q found GCARTJK Hencote Lane

Some fellow volunteers and I are staying in the nearby Hencote Farm for a week of work on software that helps charities work more efficiently. As has become a longstanding tradition for me at these events, I woke early for a walk and this morning was treated, as I made my way through the vineyards, to the especially wonderful view across the valley.

A view of Shrewsbury, from a distance, nestled in its valley, as the Spring's morning sun dapples across the verdant grass below.

I’m not sure I was supposed to exit the farm grounds the way I did, but I was eventually able to get out and was pleased to discover this cache was nearby. QEF once I’d chosen the correct host. TFTC.
