THE TALONS OF WENG CHIANG Box Hill North, Victoria, Australia
By i love dr who on 21-Apr-12. Waypoint GC3HMCN

This cache was such a cool cache,
Any one who didn't have a chance to find it,
It was a plastic rat with the log book around its neck.
Keeping in the theme of Dr who and the episode was about a giant rat [:x]

Could the owner please check on this cache?

Iii check on it soon [:X]

After all the comments made by people who logged this cache, I was looking forward to being surprised when I found this. However, I didn't have any luck. I will check back in future to see if anyone else has any luck in finding it again. Thanks for the effort, sorry I couldn't find it.

No luck last time a couple of weeks ago - and no luck today although I was here with two previous finders...

Hahaha got me good

It's funny how little people look around good hint and good set up that's another good find for the father and daughter team I also think the actual size is micro

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

Did not find it we assume it was taken

TFTC! Startled me at first lol! Log book is full, needs another

Ingenious hiding spot!

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

Interesting spot and startling hide.TFTC i love dr who. Loved it!

Quick find. Nice walk. Thx

Found with Myntelka

An easy find, once we got past our (incorrect) certainty as to where it _must_ be hidden. Gave us a bit of a start when it revealed itself.
Official log sheet is completely full and has been supplemented by a previous finder, using a parking ticket which must have been all that was to hand.

Interesting spot and lots of muggles. Eventually got a minute to find and log. TFTC

Easy find TFTC

Nice find

Nice Find

This cache gave me the fright of my life, I loved it.
Was confused by the description of the size until I had found it.

TFTC

Nice to learn a bit of local history while out looking, the recruit was oblivious to the camo standing right on top of it but not getting scared!

In the fading light without a torch I pulled the pin on this one after 5 minutes of looking.

Thanks anyway i love dr who.

Found it! Freaked out by the rat as well! Needs new paper roll! There is no more space left

Found this afternoon, clever and nice camo. Tftc ilovedrwho.

Very hard and we got scared by the rat

Australia Day

~22:00 King and King with interstate relo,

After a few stressful days and with the geoprinces in bed I gave King Sr a call and off we went together with an interstate relative that is with dad and mum for a few days. Our target some more local caches we need to revisit that need to be found.

This was 3/3 caches attempted today. Arriving at GZ we had been here before and tried to remember when. After some time pottering about and waiting for a "connie" to come and collect our tickets we found this not so little beastie.

Our thanks again "i love dr who". King Sr's road GPS has a proximity alarm for unfound Trads and each time he passes it beeps - he will miss it.

Time to pick up a few caches while Geowife is at the local hospital. Thanks for bringing me here. Nice hide, and heart beat slowly returning to normal..! TFTC

Definitely made my heart skip a beat for a second ! Tftc

I'm surprised that this one has lasted the distance. Maybe it scares all the muggles away? TFTC.

Found by Obelus O. Cheesy! Note the log is full.

What a crafty cache! After running all over the area trying to beat the other, I found this just before CJ-Curry could get close enough. Glad the rain held off long enough to find and sign. Thanks!

Quite the audacious hide! Having said that, I raced past it twice without seeing it, and could barely believe myself when Hevic grabbed it from (almost literally) right under my nose. Audacious, clever, and worth a favourite for the novelty of the hide. Cheers!

Found 5:07pm , find # 2535
After travelling all the way north to Box Hill to do the new challenge cache, I thought I'd hang around and do a few more before returning to God's own country by the Bay.
As it turned out they were all CAPITAL CACHES by the same cache owner, except one DNF.
Now for some reason, this one took much longer than it should have, purely because I failed to look in the obvious place, but I got there.
Bold, and cheeky cache.
Gets a fav point. At this point I decided to return to my car as it was spitting rain.
I still had one cache to do however.
Thanks i love dr who.

Brilliant cache, took me and robham by surprise when found. Tftc

Cripes! Thoutght the rat was a clue to where it was. Yeah. TFTC

Went caching around sunset, and the bugs were out in full force.

Heard rustling in the undergrowth, so quickly grabbed the cache, logged it, and bailed.

Slightly creepy. Don't look for this one in the dark!

Awesome cache!

Walked here after finding another cache nearby. Searched for quite a while but couldn't find it. Friend got bored so we left. >.

I didn't check the hint and got a fright as I saw a rat staring at me! TFTC

Oh you are evil!

Visited some TBs.

I had just dropped off some students at the end of the day and noticed this cache was close by. I parked the bus and after a short walk found my self searching for it. The cache was exposed and a easy find was logged. After replacing it I covered it a bit better and was then off home.
Our thanks to I love Dr Who for the cache.

The "love the cache and the Dr" Coffee's

Happy Birthday Dragon. TFTC

Tftc nice hide

Out with my group of mates doing some cacheing thanks heaps for ur effort. Love this one thanks

Cleverly hidden

5th find of the day. Lucky I have no fear!!!!

I recently picked up The Doctor trackable in the form of a Matt Smith regeneration. It seems he has lost his TARDIS and so today we went in search of it. Although we found The Talons of Weng-Chiang, we did not find the TARDIS. Being careful not to cross time-lines with the "Tom Baker" Doctor, we left our mark and went to search out the TARDIS elsewhere.

Thanks to I Love Dr Who for this cache. As per the previous log, although hidden from general view the cache was exposed and could easily get muggled. It would be worth paying a visit to ensure all is as intended.

Find #1089. Found @ 17:35.

I was after a p366 cache for today and we were visiting the in-law's place a few kms from this one. I arrived in the vicinity of GZ as it was starting to get dark and spotted the cache completely exposed. I left it where I found it but used some indigenous camouflage materials to obfuscate the hide. Perhaps the CO might like to check the placement as I doubt I found it where it was supposed to be.

I have very vivid memories of this episode (string of episodes) as, for some reason, the giant rats in the sewers unnerved me. I also found it weird that a warrior from the severteam would panic while being chased by a rodent of unusual size. However the rats didn't hold a candle to that freaky pig brained cyborg homunculus Mr. Sin - thinking about that guy still gives me the willies.

Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables.
Thanks for the cache i love dr who. As soon as I'd read the cache page, I guessed what I was going to be looking for.

Classic!

Love this very cleverly hidden cache

Scared me at first

Clever hide! Thanks for the cache!

We've just begun geocaching and this was our 2nd find. Thank you

We had some cache maintenance to do near by so after this we headed off to try our luck at a few close caches.
Quite an interesting cache page which made the find at GZ all the more enjoyable.
We have been to this park before for a different cache but have not been to this end.
We felt a bit exposed at GZ but the proof is in the pudding and the cache was still there safe and sound.
After signing the log on the near by seat we had to wait for a couple of muggles to pass before we could return the container.
Thanks i love dr who.

Had a pen with us this time. Brought the geokids but they didn't jump nearly as much as I did the first time. TFTC

Found it!! Forgot a pen so will be back to write on log

We needed the hint. Kids found it so was fun. Thanks

Loved this cache. Thank you.

TFTF - after reading the hint made the find easy. Very cute....

Quick find. Nice container

Found after reading the hint. A very interesting piece of history here. And great camo!

Rat scared me bit hard!

Tftc sl awesome find, good spot nearly missed it. Cheers

TFTC SL, nice quick find, great location

No luck today. Hope it hasn't been muggled.

Took the geokids and a friend. A new convert.

Nice cache! PIPPAESP

Eny meany miny mo, that one no that one. Ah that one...found it eventually. Gps sent us a couple of meters away.

Clever cache and hiding spot, dad was very amused by the container.

Decided to do a few caches after visiting a friend in Hosipital. She has recovered well.
This was a nice easy find.
TFTC

Took a bit of searching around before I narrowed down on the beady eyes and was signing the log at 6:25pm. I remember having been to this location before while bike riding, so I must have missed it last time.
thanks ilovedrwho

Ha ha I got a cache just like this. Tftc

Well i said i would be back and got the chance tonight while it was still light. So knocked this one off. I can see how i missed this easily in the dark. Cheers for the cache.

Was out for a ride on this nice night. Decided to knock off as many as i could while in Box Hill and before the sun disappeared.

And this was the cache that broke my streak this evening. It got a bit too dark for me to search for it. Will check back again in a few days and i know i'll knock it off. I might have to bring my pet rats on my shoulder as help

Quick grab after orienteering down the road.
Horrible, horrible hide but TFTC.

Whilst on our way to visiting a relation in Boxhill we got a few caches. What a novel cache hide!
Had not seen one of this kind before - area was busy this am so stealth was used!
TFTC i love dr who and for bringing us to this intersting site with its history.

Had a bit of a poke and look about tonight and came up with the find, one of my caching buddies wanted to exterminate (best darlek voice) this one. Good hide i love dr who.TFTC

Find #18 for the day @1815 Hrs...

Out & about with Happy Pants & Moosetash after attending Spladem's 1000 Event @ Balwyn... This was one of the caches found...

Stopped and made this nice find on a hot afternoon... “Bow ties are cool.”...

Took: Nothing Left: Nothing Signed Log

Thanks for bringing me here...

Sorry to disappoint, but I really don't like Dr Who, and I refused to even look at the cache container!!!! But still a great cache for creative containers. Thanks for bringing us here and for the cache.

Good idea for a cache! Found it with Wooly13

-Fuzzy

So scary! TFTC luckily had help from Fuzzy.

Found it after about 10minutes of searching in the wrong area and people walking past.

B2 didn't like this one but B1 thought it brave.
No wonder it has so many favourites with his love/ hate relationship.
B2 gets squeamish with these images.
Well done

Found this very clever cache today. I have previously been here 2 or 3 times and each time the cache has eluded me. Today it was in a very sensible place but I had never looked there. Great cache container and I signed log but didn't swap anything. I think this one deserves a favourite point for the original cache container and also for the history of this place which was where I used to catch the bus when I lived nearby.

Thanks for the cache i love dr who.

I nearly freaked out when i found this!!.. TFTC!

This scared the heck out of geo-boyf Spud53! it was just poking out with those devilish eyes!

Found by The Empire
Find number 22 of 33 today. Got this one on DVD, loved the cache too. Favourite point added. Thanks for the cache i love doctor who.

Geo son and I have been here before, but with people at the seating area, we had to head to a nearby cache instead. Today no muggles to seen and a fairly short search followed. The geo kids thought the cache was fantastic and were comming up with all sorts of related caches that we could hide. TFTC.

Initially for the first few minutes I couldn't find anything. Then sat down read the hint, waited for the GPS to settle, checked somewhere I hadn't checked yet and bingo there it was. Eeeeewwwwww. TFTC.

Visiting my family, after a trip with Mum to Vietnam and Cambodia. This is new since I was last in Melb, and worth a visit. Lovely spot, I liked the seating area that looked a bit like a tram carriage. TFTC.

Out with our caching friends the Walenator's. This cache was a surprise. It impressed our 8 year old! Thanks for the cache, I love dr who

Decided on a bit of New Years Caching today so gave our good caching buddies the Earthbound's a holler and we were soon on our way. Cache was a nice quick find for us today. It took longer to wait for the traffic lights so we could cross the road to get to the cache and back again than it did to find it. TFTC...SL....TNLN

Third go for me at this cache. This time I brought the whole gang for an after dinner cache. I'm not sure why I missed this on the two previous occasions. The clue got better, but then it was pretty close to where I looked on two previous occasions anyway. This time, we also retrieved a pen some previous cacher was probably poking around with - we left it by the cache.

Thanks i love dr who - good cache.

Neat little reserve - enjoyed walking around and exploring the remnants of yesteryear.... fascinating. The cache was spotted quickly due to a muggle/cachers pen being left behind hehehe I tried to retrieve it but to no avail it was while I was trying to retrieve the pen I accidentally stumbled upon the hide.

Thx to the CO for the sharing this awesome piece of history Ohhh and the cache of course.

Out and about in the suburbs looking for a few caches.
This was one of them.
Cute....!
TFTC

It's got to be someone's pet it has a collar with a dog/rat tag around its neck , I never knew that the tram was here great info. Thanks for hide I love dr who.

Out for a lunch time walk and the chance to find a new cache in the area. Loved the container! TFTC SL

Good one!!!! Enjoy these caches.

Had a nice walk through bushy creek trail and identified the gz on approach. Cache in hand in no time at all. TFTC

On my weekly caching expedition thru the 'burbs, this time the Box Hill area was selected. A quick find due to good coords. I liked finding out about the history of the trams.
