Where to go caching this weekend?

It's the day before our usual caching day out and we still cannot decide where to go...

The weather forecasts for Saturday have been looking dismal for the last few days, but this morning they are looking a little more promising.

Nowhere is jumping out saying "come here caching", apart from very distant areas in the South East which will require an overnight stop. Isaac is working hard swotting for his 11-Plus exams which are either side of the Christmas holidays and cannot realistically spend the night away from home until they are over.

There are quite a few new walks around Bromsgrove / Alcester which look to be our kind of caching. 10 or so caches on a circular walk in lovely countryside, followed by a short(ish) drive to another nearby set of caches etc etc. Perfect, apart from the fact we have a uncontrollable desire to go north again this weekend.

The new Stockport Heritage Trail caches look interesting and could be combined with a mop-up of DNF's in Burntwood Park near Manchester Airport. Not enough caches to keep us entertained for a whole day, but if we then go north on the M60 towards Oldham and tackle the caches around Failsworth then there would be enough. If we have time, then there are more new caches towards the city centre e.g. the new Philips Park ones. If we are brave enough, there are even two new caches in Moss Side under the title of "Manchester's Most Dangerous"!

I think I'll watch the weather a bit more and decide later in the day...
