As this cache has been out of action for too long and there has been no response from the cache owner, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 21 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

Finally we found this one, our second try. But without that peach tree, it would be quiet boring place.

The plum tree made this more interesting than expected and although soft, and many have fallen, they were nice. TFTC

Found some yellow shoelace type thing tied to a tree just south of the plum tree with no cache attached. Kept looking & found nothing. Possible muggled.

05-Jun-11
Found easily alongside two other groups of geocachers. Passers by on the expressway must have wondered about where the party was!!!!
 
05-Jun-11
While driving along a certain stretch of highway, we noticed two car loads of suspicious looking characters. The GPS, which had been steadily counting down suddenly was pointing back in the opposite direction. Hehehe, we were about to join this shady looking group. Razz Nice to meet some more geocachers on the trail. Nice to finally hand on Karloff's Lapu-Lapu as well.
 
05-Jun-11
We pulled up for this one and another vehicle of peoples pulled up too, mmm what's happening here, yes another car load of caches and then another.

Can you believe it - 10 people turned up togather (3 car loads) to retrieve this quick cache. Have taken TB PCWKDK and moving it North.
 
25-Apr-11
The number of motorists that pass this way must be questioning why is there a group of people climbing in and out of the shelterbelt lol TFTC spotted by Demon, not much in the cache, gave it a bit of a clean up and put logbook in a bag as the bubble solution that was in there had leaked. TN left heart candle

I was visiting friends in the district, and was very pleased to discover this useful extension of the expressway.
Not quite so easy to discover is the cache during rush hour traffic...was rather thankful that I spotted the passing policecar before he spotted me "coming out of the bushes". Couldn't think of a "cover story" to explain my behaviour at GZ Smile.
