| struggling then. | |

| Ok, I'm sorry TJ, don't have any coordinates for you ( :o) But | |
| I'm not completely useless, as I know what to do... just a case | |
| of working out the answers. | |
| Somehow you get values from these clues on the listing: | |
| Parking? I have no idea! - representing a car park | |
| Do you need a pen? I�m in disarray! - representing a pen | |
| Then, you look at the next two points: | |
| 1. The cache is NOT at the above co-ordinates (is that a | |
| car-park?). Check your calculated co-ords here. | |
| 2. The devil is in the detail. You will need some luck (but you | |
| don't need to be lucky) - Lucky? Why that is a lucky HORSE | |
| SHOE!! . | |
| What are horse shoes made of? IRON So, thus why the cache is | |
| called Irony | |
| Then, if you look below, you'll see: | |
| If you are still "at sixes and sevens" over this cache, feel | |
| free to email me for a hint. | |
| By "sixes and sevens", this is what a website says on how horse | |
| shoes are made: | |
| [quote]"strand are all "at sixes and sevens," too unstable in | |
| position to be adjusted."[/quote] | |
| So, it is something to do with horse shoes. 5 minutes to my | |
| deadline, give me a little more time, and I may have some | |
| numbers. At least I provided some help :D | |
