Logs
As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. 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/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.
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 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every month or so to keep everyone up to date.

Thought we would have a quick look while still in the area before heading home out of the city. no sign of cache anywhere
If this was attached to the post office box then it ain't anymore. Don't know if it may have been moved as a result of recent renovations at the station?
It looks like this one has been muggled. Couldn't find what looks like it should have been easy.
This one needs checking by the cache owner.
Previous finders have confirmed it's not where it should be.

A quick visit to the Xmas event in Sydney, then north up the coast with Bettyboo3747.
A quick visit here, but no cache. Doesn't look good.
Thanks, Robmc.

Terry and I looked around the letter receiver, the charity bins, the car park areas in the vicinity and some other pieces of infrastructure, but we couldn't find it. .
I returned with Pam at 7:30pm and had another look, We read all the logs and went over everything again.
Since it's supposed to be on the object identified by the name, and is supposed to be a dead easy find, I strongly suspect it has gone.
I'd love to hear from the owner where it was as we go back to Melbourne tomorrow and this is a major source of intrigue for us.
Thanks anyway lawsontanner

A very easy find but always good to add another to the tally. Thanks for the hide.
We happen to be in the area today meeting the grandparents. Since there was a cache close by I decided to grab. Luckily we were here on a quiet day, I can see how this place could be reallly busy.
As it turns out this was my first cache in a 50 day streak I'm planning.
Thanks

This was probably our quickest find yet, even though all the research we had done was find out the name of the cache!

An easy find. LOTS of workers very nearby working to improve the station access so grabbed cache and walked across station footbridge to sign log in private but noticed lots of rail security cameras. Finally found somewhere to do the job and went back to return cache. Thank goodness for shoe laces or I may never have managed.
Found it, second find of the day while caching in the area with evangt. TFTC

This was an easy find but retrieving it took some time. Apart from the muggle problem, an armoured car was park at GZ with the staff involved in retreiving money from the ticket maching at the nearby railway station. I though it better to wait until they left. SL TFTC

Out for a morning walk and Lo and Behold my Shoelace came undone right at the GZ. TFTC
I'm sure there are a few people like us heading north that took the short detour down this road for a few quick finds. This one was easy with my driver parked in the nearby street . TFTC!
Found with Browngang, nice easy find we have a similar cache to this up at Cresent Head. Thanks for the cache.
I had grabbed this before Blackie_71 had even parked the car again.
Cheers from Browngang

flytosyd had this one before I had even arrived at the street from the station. TFTC!
Haha doesn't get easier than this - there is even special parking just for those visiting the cache TFTC
Hope that car full of muggles wasn't watching as I placed the cache back. I wonder what they would be thinking if I did...
Had to sign in secret as workmen and other muggles nearby and busy road beside. TFTC TNSL
Easiest Find to date. I guess I made a pick up rather then a drop off at the Mail Box.

Walked up to this one and went there is no way Im going to get it. There were workmen nearby and went stuff it lets just go for it. The workmen didnt even care that I looked where I did TFTC
Was wondering on which level till I remembered the name. TFTC. Log full, left paper.
Chook, Christine Vista and I ventured out for the day for some afternoon caching. I had to get this one as it was hot and the girls were big fans of the aircon. TFTC
Found with Team Unibolt on our caching adventure.....stop here and soon had the prize in hand thanks again Lawsontanner for the hide
Another scramble across the road as we headed to the obvious spot. The cache was retreived quickly, and we went for a short stroll away from the GZ to stealthily sign the log. The cache was returned and we were off to the next. TFTC.
A nice quick find.... grabbed when RTA man looked the other way.
SL and a quick replacement of cache.

Found it but even a lot of muggles at 1155 at night! And I forgot my pen. But yay anyway!
The middle of the day made this a bit challenginf to grab, but just at the right time, I received a real phone call, and had an escuse to loiter at the right spot to make the grab as I talked.
In returning the cache after it was signed I had to resort to the "loose shoelace" manouvre.
thanks.

A quick find while in the area waiting for the rain to subside enough to grab it and then return it!
Thanks for the cache.

In Thornleigh for lunch - why not a couple of nearby caches. Celebrating one year of caching today! TFTC
A quick find under the watchful gaze of some motorists and a couple of rail staff preparing for trackwork buses.
What a strange carpark as I discovered when I drove up the top to see if I could get a view of the approaching storm. Wouldn't be a bad spot, but once in you are trapped and have to negotiate the whole thing to escape - a bit like Ikea really! But the cache proved much simpler than the carpark, it was just a case of waiting for a gap in the passing traffic. Thanks lawsontanner.
Only the one muggle waiting at the nearby bus stop to outsmart then the cache was mine....easy peasy Nice quick find in the end Thanks for the cache !!!
Found it with akkatracker. he got a bit confused and i quickly got him back on track. TFTC
CM66 To The Eastern Come In Sucker with Glennren
Another easy find. Glennren arranged in placing it into a good location

The name said it all so this one was a quick drive-by. our last for the day as we had to hit the F3 to head for home. TFTC lawsontanner. [1151]
Interesting and very open hide. Successfully found and replaced with no muggles suspecting a thing.
Thanks for the hide. Logbook signed.

A quick find, retrieving a little more difficult with muggles around. Did the old tie my shoelaces trick to retrieve and put back. Thanks.. TNSLLN

I have some good news for everyone... this listing will shortly be archived and will turn into a multi, the location of which has been decided and will be sent to be published when the last waypoint is hidden.
Caught some other cachers in the act! Nice mob - we went on to the other cache nearby and found that one too.

I will start off this of by saying: I am an idiot!! I spent about 10 minutes feeling awkwardly inside a persons letterbox before geomum spotted gz and I felt my self esteem dropping a fair bit!! Anyway nice cache! TFTC RNLN
We did a Postman Pat cache only a few days ago, north of Richmond. It must be true that the postman gets around. This cache was easy. So is Postman Pat - I've heard rumours.
