How are you doing with this, Tony? Looks impossible to me.
Hope you're enjoying your holiday

Looks like it does.Oh bu**er.I shall be in big trouble with the Geocaching community if they find out.
Post all replies in a little green envelope under the door at the hedge near the monkey puzzle.
Seriously though I love Geocaching;get involved if you have never tried before.

Hi TonyW,

Could this be HTML Language? Some of the 6 digit sequences are HTML Colour codes? i.e (search "Code 460838") I don't know enough about Geocaching to know if this is relevant, or even helpful at all but you may! Good luck, that's an evil genius at work there, with that code!

Interesting idea. That's certainly thinking "outside the box".

Actually, all the groups will generate an HTML colour, but using only the usual 6-digit ones gives the following.

Tonyw, do the resulting RGB or HSL numbers relate to usable co-ordinates or offsets?

111714 RGB: 17, 23, 20 - HSL: 0.42, 0.15, 0.08

252515 RGB: 37, 37, 21 - HSL: 0.17, 0.28, 0.11

460838 RGB: 70, 8, 56 - HSL: 0.87, 0.79, 0.15

116158 RGB: 17, 97, 88 - HSL: 0.48, 0.70, 0.22

Perhaps we're over-thinking this, but as OCD is a common affliction, I'm sure someone will crack it.

mmm perhaps when this is over you might tell the neuronally challenged what Liskatraz Dicky means!
You seem to be getting somewhere, well done
