I love hate/puzzles - intro
Click here for cache page. A simple list with difficulty = 2 (and that's probably a bit higher than it should be!!!). The part we need is:
For the coords you have to solve the following puzzle:
Flowery,Snowy,Snowy,Hoppy,Flowy,Snowy,Croppy
Breezy,Breezy,Breezy,Snowy,Blowy,Showery,Showery,Breezy
Assume 10 is 0.

Solution
If you Google the string "Flowery Snowy Hoppy Croppy Breezy Blowy" you will find a poem by George Ellis about the months of the year, which matches the hint.
Snowy, Flowy, Blowy,
Showery, Flowery, Bowery,
Hoppy, Croppy, Droppy,
Breezy, Sneezy, Freezy
which pretty obviously equates to the months of the year with Snowy=January=1 etc. Plugging this into the puzzle above you get
Flowery,Snowy,Snowy,Hoppy,Flowy,Snowy,Croppy = 5,1,1,7,2,1,8, which gives N 51 17.218
Breezy,Breezy,Breezy,Snowy,Blowy,Showery,Showery,Breezy = 10,10,10,1,3,4,4,10 and I say that 10 is 0, so that gives W 000 13.440
Put that into the geocheck and you will get a hint for the next puzzle in the series.
