you may know this already, but www.geocaching.com has thousands more for
you
great if you have kids and want to get them walking. And for those days
where you can't decide where to go.

I meant to take a camera and send him a photo, but forgot it at the last
moment, but I didn't know what to expect, so I just looked at the odd
assortment of plastic animals out of Xmas crackers and a key-ring.
I signed the book on his behalf.
It involved plodding through a swamp in the grounds of a cemetery to get
there, but his GR was spot on, and I would never have found it without
the GPS!
I also had to make two road detours (due to floods?) and another because
of a major gas leak, and got completely lost in Blackley. I had to
resort to back-tracking along the track of my outward journey to
extricate myself.
:-)
I saw some work being done on the "B of the Bang" sculpture by means of
a hydraulic platform on the way home. The men must have been 100ft
above ground, and again I wished I had the camera....

Just so the rest of the NG doesn't get lost in the cemetery in Blackley
(pronounced) Blake-Lee (lol) it is in Manchester and the "B of the Bang" is
a new sculpture outside of the City of Manchester Stadium, so called after
Linford Christie said he set off the starting line in a race at the B of the
Bang.
