We went and did a quick geocache at Moreton Corbett Castle GC16ZVW at Shawbury - where Prince William has just done his helicopter flying training. I have been there many times with the children but Steven hasn't so he was intrigued by the old ruins. Such a shame they were allowed to rot. But there was a picture of a 19th Century engraving showing that the rot had already started then - it did not have a roof but all the walls were intact.
The cache was easy to find but tracky to get to as there were loads of nettles and as Steven had his shorts on - I had to do the deed. Luckily there were plenty of dock leaves around to make me better!
I may even have a scrapbook layout to show later as I started one yesterday, with the lovely transparency in yesterdays Gogo kit, just can't think what title to use yet.
