The best drink in existence.
"Like having your brain smashed out by a slice of lemon wrapped round a large gold brick"
You will need to visit all 8 locations to collect the ingredients of the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster. The locations can be visited in any order but from the sea to the hills is the most sensible route. When you have collected all 8 ingredients for a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster the final location will be revealed.
Last seen location of the S.S. Heart of Gold.

That was unexpected! Without warning the Heart of Gold dropped me in the middle of Adelaide and left without the trace. And just when I was to enjoy a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster! So I had no other choice but to make a new one...
Being stranded without transport is tough, but after asking around I got hold of a three-gear hire bike. Not my first choice, but beggars can't be choosers. So into the saddle I hopped and of I went.
After one hour I had a bit of a struggle with a suntiger but managed to extract the first ingredient. After cycling for almost two hours along the coastline I finally detected the correct mixture of Santraginean water.
Fortunately from there the Mega-Gin and the Marsh Gas weren't so far away. After also procuring a dose of Ol' Janx Spirit, a hearty olive and a bit of Hypermint I ran into a small problem. Those earthlings didn't understand the urgency of my mission and demanded that I return the bike by 4:30pm. So back to the city I went.
From there I took one of those big wheeled horizontal people transporters to get me close to the final ingredient. After a short hike it was successfully retrieved. Now I had all ingredients, but no container to safely mix them... Just then I noticed a location where the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster could be prepared, and it wasn't even that much further, considering how far I've come today. What I forgot to consider was my absolute lack of winged transportation, so I ended up walking quite a bit longer until I reached the correct place.
On the way there I spotted a couple of natives, one was a small grey cuddly thing with a button nose, and the others were two jumpy-thingies. One of them even had two heads! "Earth can't be all that bad, if there are other two-headed creatures around", I thought to myself and continued on my way.
Once at the correct location it took a good deal of rummaging until the container showed itself and then I was finally in possession of a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster! And after the day I had, I could definitely use it!
PS: Found 6:39 pm, #7 of 8 (day), #677 (total)
PPS: Summary - 6.5 hours spent on a bicycle, 3 hours hiking and 1 hour in buses.
PPPS: Thanks for this fantastic Cache! I had a great day :). But considering the enormity of the task and the location of the final a difficulty 3 and terrain 2 rating would be more appropriate than the 1.5/1.5 it currently has
PPPPS: IN: Favorite Point :)

So who would be crazy enough to run around and chase down FTF on this cache, on a cold wintery night with rain threatening and a half decent hike required...
That's easy I hear you say. I'll have a $10 bet it was locus cache, she's easily crazy enough, and with good recent form too! Sadly, you'd be wrong. I hear the name 3LG shouted from the back of the room. Certainly worth a punt, I'll give you that! But again, there are no chocolates awarded.
The Scoobsters have been known to chase down FTF's relentlessly, or maybe Cache or Check felt energetic enough to hunt this one down. Tiger Muffin? He's known for running/rogaining through all sorts of terrain, and some of those are 24 hour events. But all of those guesses fall short on this occasion.
For it was I, the humble Walrus who in a stroke of sheer genius (most certainly the insane kind), raced around for the required waypoints and then prepared the delicious concoction from the ingredients collected. The slow but steady walk in the night followed, and I now present my claim to my share of the crazy stakes. I await with trepidation your critique of my claim Freddo .
On a slightly more serious note, this was actually a lovely hike and while it was certainly cold, it wasn't freezing which made conditions bearable. Wandered around at GZ for forty two minutes (okay it was actually ten at most) trying to find the cache in the dark, only to find it by nearly tripping over it. Not quite sure how I missed it for so long. And, as always TFTC Freddo!
