Apologies folks.
I have been working in a different location for a year, only recently returning localy.
I must have missed the earlier reviewer note in my sea of emails.
You are not going to belive this, but I literally said to a work colleague on Frisay "I need to replace this cache, remind me on Monday and we will go for a walk"
c'est la vie
May it rest in peace

I think this one has been taken there was a bit of velcro under the seat but no eclipse mint container
I finally had an opportunity to look for this one as I come by often (my other hobby I sewing). But the park bench was in use by a couple consoling one another - it's actually a surprisingly busy little area - next time!
Quick find, strange place for a park....
Currently waiting for a muggle to move on some I can return the cache to its rightful place

First find! Faster than I expected, no pens so remember to bring your own. Thanks for the hide!
Thought this might be a disaster during the food and wine festival down James st but this was a little patch of peace ttfc!
This one was very special for me and the hubby as it marks the 1 year anniversary of Chester Bennington's suicide and as the cache was located so close to Chester st we have been saving this cache for the occasion. We found the cache signed the log and then set up a small candle lit vigil for Chester, taking a moment to be mindful of how he impacted our life. I remembered my mum and step-dad walking down the aisle together to Linkin Park's "Numb" and how happy I was for my dear mumma and how proud I was of her and how beautiful she was.
If anyone is thinking about Chester tonight and is having thoughts of harm PLEASE feel free to message me. I will be here for you from 2:00am - 5:00am Australian Eastern Standard Time

Found it. No TB’s in cache. Not surprising considering the size of it.
Also admire BCC,s efforts in policing this park. I was going to ride my horse here and play a game of golf till I saw the sign...

Great little spot in Newstead. Made for a fun little outing on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Many thanks!

I don't tend to spend much time in these parts of the city but our caching with HuntHiHuntLo tonight we chose to grab a few around here, not something I would do on my own at night that's for sure. Looking at the map, we decided to head to this one, and as we pulled up noticed we were right by Urban Climb, somewhere my brother tended to spend quite a bit of time. Parking the car - much easier in this area at this time of night - we headed over to make a quick find. Nice to see the CO has provided some soft furnishings here (There is a roll of carpet on one of the bench seats)! Took a seat (not the carpeted one) to sign the logbook before HuntHiHuntLo replaced the cache and we headed for our last cache of the night.
Thanks for the cache Rogainer.

I had to head into the Valley after work to pick up a few things and decided to make the short detour to get this cache. A guy was sitting on one of the seats smoking a cancer stick I sat on the other seat until he finished killing himself and left. Then I made a quick find. Thanks.
Cache 1 of my Brisbane trip. Great to be caching in some warm dry weather for once! Also chance to checkout the climbing wall.
what a fantastic spot for a cache. i never would have know this cute little park was here. this is why i love geocaching . love the art work nearby and the hanging bikes. thanks for placing this cache here for us to enjoy
Nice quick find! Tiny little park!!! Thanks!!! Unfortunatelyu no chalk messages today!!
Woohoo! A nice little work & a quiet seat for lunch. TFTC!! Left a small pressie. Cheers neb1117
Easy one next to my hotel. First one in Australia for me. Greeting for Quebec Canada
Cute little location, was a little tricky to find but found it . First Geocache found.

I think the cache got muggled again... I found the velcro but far and wide was no cache to find
Away from the herd, ducked down a quiet alleyway for some purely legal activity. Found at half past six in the pm. Cheers rogainer for placing one here oh so long ago.
What a glorious sunny day for some Caching. We are in the Brisbane area for a few days of Caching. Upon arrival found Velcro strip under seat, which fits description / hint. However, no cache. So we widened search and found Cache buried in garden some distance away. Log book signed and Cache reattached with its own Velcro strip to Velcro strip at GZ. Many thanks for bringing us here. TNLN SL TFTC
This was our first find! The geocache may have been moved from its original location as there is a Velcro strip on the tin but we did not find it attached to the other side of it's Velcro. We couldn't find any Velcro in the area so we replaced the tin where we found it.
Was out and about today and thought of finding a few caches in the inner suburbs of Brisbane and the city .Their weren't many muggles about today along the river so retrieving the cache was easy. There were a few muggles about talking to each other so stealth was essential . We no one was looking the cache was retrieved and signed .Thanks for the cache Rogainer . TFTC!!!
Good to go
Be aware that it appears that a couple of homeless people have made this park home. You may wish to limit your finding of this one to daylight hours.

I turned up here with a replacement cache only to be muggled out
Unfortunately, I am working out of town at present, so it could be a little while before I can get back here.

Hey couldn't find the geocache no where to be found even had a geocaching friend help me it may be missing have never logged a DNFI defiantly disappointed
Also it all has been freshly mulched I encourage the owner comes and has a look for it themselves
Oh dear...there may be some bad news on this one. There is a correctly-sized piece of Velcro attached in a likely spot, but no cache to be seen. Don't see any other place for it to be hiding. The owner may want to check up on this one.
Found after lunch while in Brisbane for work. I used this cache to explain geocaching to my muggle workmate. TFTC
I'm in Brisbane for work and this one is the closest to my hotel so after work tonight I headed out. I made it to a deserted GZ and made a nice quick find but unfortunately my pen ran out so I couldn't sign the log.
I have photo's of the cache and log to prove my visit if the CO wants me to send them through. TFTC

TFTC... 16/3/17. Sitting made it easier to find it. Not too many people about other than misssusan79.
Took a seat on the wrong seat which allowed us to see the hide from afar. Found with REMSJW after visiting a local dance store.
I'm sure we parked illegally here, but hey we stayed near the car to move very hastily if needed. Watched all the youths in the area coming and going to do a bit of rock climbing. Finally the coast was clear that we could get in and do a proper search, in between teenagers keeping a close eye on us. We must of looked a bit strange in their eyes, blocking their bike path with our car and loitering out the front of their hang out. Hey we are ok, we just need to find our fantastic plastic.
If they come out we just sit on a seat together and admire the local artwork, which I'm sure makes us look more weirder, geo-daughter could of helped us out and come out to hang with us...but no she's too busy on snap chat.
Soon located the hidden treasure and watched this social climber go for an urban climb.
tftc Rogainer, all good here.

Out early this morning for a fairly easy find. Hardly anyone around in this tiny part of Fortitude Valley. As I was sitting with the cache in hand I noticed one of the local chefs was looking in my direction, but he went back to his trendy cafe without a second look. I hope.
I walked right past the laneway leading here so put another 500 odd metres on my walk. Although small, there was room to leave a Big Dad 57 pathtag. TFTC, Rogainer

Urban Climb is rather busy, so keep an eye out for muggles. An interesting little park though that we never would've known existed, so thanks! Sneaky Squirrels (and an ambivalent Space Prairie Dog in tow )
Back and forth we went, finally back to the original 'spot' to make a find - how did we miss that?! Tftc
Some relatively inner-city caches for a change today, in the company of Nadine1989. We concentrated mostly in the New Farm area, but started at Kangaroo Point before heading over the river.
Park Here I did while the ladies sat down in the shade and made the find.
Log signed & replaced again. Found at 1.40pm on 7th December 2016. TFTC

Early morning stroll in this great place to visit. Here only for the weekend, but couldn't resist a few of the local caches, thanks
Got it! Was hard as there were a few muggles around, had to be tactical, don't think anyone saw me. TFTC!
Forgot my pen... But here is proof that I found it!
And yay! Found an Urban Climb!!!
And yay! Found an Urban Climb!!!
Took longer than I'd like to admit, but we found it eventually. Cute little park though.
On my way to see a movie, thought I'd grab this one! No chalk designs, unfortunately; and I had to wait a while for some muggles but happily I was sitting on top of it! TFTC.
Nice and easy for International Geocache Day while we were in the neighbourhood.
