I know..... I know.......

But some of the fun is helping others and to be honest I did mean it as a joke and it was not until later that I worked out what it meant.

I did go back and edit the post but it was to late....

Anyway it couldn't have gone to a nicer bloke.. just save the gold ones for me!

Anyway, here's the solution:

FIND 100 WHITE FLOWERS
THE SUNRISE STAKES OUT 6 FROM THE PORT


I'm facing East(ish) for this photo.

OK, very simple one this:

In the picture above you will see planters with something growing in it.
There are in fact 100 cauliflowers planted here. See this link for more info. The location is the Greenwich Peninsula near the O2 Dome.

So the first line of the clue 'Find one hundred white flowers' refers to this (cauliflowers are white just in case you didn't know )
I don't think any of us got this until Ade added the 'Sheep Dog' clue - sheep dog = collie.


I'm facing South(ish) on this one.

The next part of the clue is 'The sunrise stakes out 6 from the port!'

Look in this photo and you will see a very short wooden fence type structure at the bottom - there was one of these on each side of the cauliflowers. The photo shows the fence to the right hand side of the collies.

The coin (sunrise) was located in the gap between the vertical stake and the top horizontal part of the fence - funnily enough the sixth one from the riverside (port) .

I checked the left hand side first, but didn't find anything. I then found it on the right hand side. I only checked the sixth post on each side as the clue was fairly obvious about that. All I could see was a tiny bit of clear plastic bag sticking out. A quick prod with my PDA stylus and (after nearly snapping it!!) the coin was in my hand.

Approx sat coordinates (if you're interested in looking on google earth or retrieving my note ):

Well done, especially as just missed the Warwick one.

I'm feeling bad that I didn't have a go at putting the fence back up around the cauliflowers. Although, if I'd tried I probably would have been arrested for damaging it !!

It was a bit strange as there wasn't a soul around - I'm not used to that in London.

Nice one mate, welcome to the hidden isis finders club... now there's a thought...

There have been a few hidden down that way recently, hope the golds are placed in Yorkshire ........

Cheers

I just remembered about a dream I had last night. I dreamt I was searching for this isis, but instead of cauliflowers, it was tomato plants growing up stakes (no idea why they changed to tomatoes in my dream).

I remember I kept looking at the 6th stake along, either end of the row of plants, but I just couldn't find the coin. Then it turned into a Harry Potter dream...

Isis search is taking over my life!!

[ChadH]

Woohoo - just got my free Isis.

I was under the impression that it was going to be a 'second', but I've got a brand new boxed Isis. Funnily enough, it was in better condition than the one I bought last year.

Annoyingly it now has a couple of scratches from my wedding ring when opening it

[Lil Pip]

Wow, congrats!

I wanna have a go at opening one! Here's hoping I find one soon

I'll probably just get so frustrated with it in the end that I throw it out the window

Surprisingly enough, that'll probably help you open it

[bingabonga]

I'll probably just get so frustrated with it in the end that I throw it out the window

you never know that may even help

Haha, beat you to it

[Big Brian]

Bigbrian - this one would have been for you, but since SW did the right thing, I'm going to find another suitable home for it

Thanks for thinking of me in the first place.

Hope your enjoying it as much as I am. I havent had as much time to 'play' with it yet as I would have liked. Still theres always tomorrow and to open it too soon would be an anti-climax. I'm enjoying the challenge.

Well done
