Doctor Who - Blink Fairlight, New South Wales, Australia
By zargfinders on 26-May-12. Waypoint GC3M6JZ

It wasnt awfully late yet, approx 7pm but still well after dark given its not daylight savings yet! Thats the best time for cemetery caching, right? Scaphoid and myself set off with our torches and made our way around the waypoints one by one. We very carefully recorded the information, which was important as some values werent so easy! Once we had finished we were confident with our values, but they still didnt seem to be correct. We spent a long time sitting on the grass trying to work out what was wrong, and even searched a large tree at a set of coordinates we manipulated without luck. Just as we were about to call it quits, we had one more idea and headed off to another part of the cemetery with our fingers crossed that the coordinates were better this time. Thankfully they were, and after a short search the excellent hide was spotted! Phew! Very creative cache, thanks for the challenge!

Being relatively new to caching there is a lot that Im discovering and enjoying. One of those things that is a new discovery is caching trips. Loci612 and I had discussed a trip to Sydney for a specific event, unfortunately, I couldnt make the event but I was still able to enjoy a good few days of caching with friends.Day 2 was all about focusing on getting some cachers with some good stats, particularly some high-terrain caches. We had all day in Sydney to spend caching so we were both exhausted by the end. Well, this was a fun cache! We ended up doing this after dark so it made it that little bit more eerie. Loci612 was in charge of directing us, and I was in charge of finding the angles and collecting the information. It took quite a bit fo searching to locate the cache but in the end, we had the lightbulb moment and found the very cool cache! TFTC zargfinders

Replaced cache container (camo was still there). Tried to stick it to the camo container with double sided tape, but doubt it will stick for long. This isn't a bit deal as the container can just be stashed under the camo.

Checked on this cache yesterday and the camo is still there. The cache container is missing so we'll replace that at some point. But feel free to log the cache as found if you find the camo.

been twice and still cant find it, i know the exact grave its at though

Awesome multi! TYFTC!

It started spitting, so I bowed to my family's pressure to go and get lunch. Will come back.

Strolled around gathering the numbers and tried very hard not to blink, and I must have be done something right as the checker checked. It took me a few loops but I eventually spotted the very clever cache. TFTC

Log is wet and soggy and mouldy a bit

A pleasant walk across the cemetery in search of angels. It always saddens me to see the tombs in a neglected state. But I guess that is how it always goes.
After an unexpected find of the Merry Widow at the cemetery, it was time to find the final for this nice multi. Of course I messed up a number, having read the wrong number from a headstone. But once the error was corrected the checker gave me the gree light.
I had to wait for a dog muggle to move on but then the cache was quickly spotted. What a great hide!
TFTC and have a FP.

???

The weeping angles could not defeat Commander floob

Nice stroll around the cemetery with Aussiewolves, busy with dogs and owners. Found all the clues, had to wait until doggy exercise was over to find the cache. Nice hiding!
TFTC

#22564. Approached from one direction and had no joy, and then tried another direction and this time I was pleased to spot the outer container in plain view. Very well done! TFTC.

I had solved this multi virtually at home using the wonders of the internet. Today, StreetWalkerNZ and I, accompanied by muggle Tom, walked via the cemetery en route to the Manly bus.
Once in the right place the cache was a quick find. Great hide, very well crafted. Left a TB. Those weeping angels sure were scary! TFTC.

Found it!

I found this like a week back forget to log it. TFTC really good one did with my mate CacherHobbit very fun. All in all good job guys!

TFTC Zargfinders! This was my first ever multi-cache and i was quite hesitant heading into it, it took about 30 mins but me and my mate did it with the gps. This cache introduced me to multies and i enjoyed it!

Again TFTC!

Well done
TFTC

Great journey through time. Great hide! TFTC

great activity. Very good hide. TFTC

A good walk looking for the Angels and an interesting place for a cache. TFTC

First Angel was easy to find but the other 5 took a lot of searching. Great location for the cache TFTC

What a great multi. Took a while to find all the angels TFTC

Good find

We're on a bit of a cache maintenance spree, so decided to check on this cache. The cache container and contents were wet, so we dried out the container and added a new ziplock bag with dry log sheet.

Cache is ready and waiting to be found.

Too hard don’t understand

Found! Very difficult! Took us 45mins! Super fun!

Dang I’ll have to give it another look when there are less muggles around

Take my dog there. Seen it 100 times.

Added a small container with a log sheet and cache note. Not nearly as fancy as the original book we made. Please BYO pen or pencil as we didn't have one that size. No clue in cache container as, sadly, the final cache in the series has been archived so there's no longer a puzzle to solve.

Really cool we had a heap of fun on our first multicache

#whitehunters

Cache disguise is good but the cache is gone.

Nice container but it’s missing, the thing is still there, here is pencil. TFTC Good container!

We're aware that there is no log book or container, but the camo is still there so please feel free to log the cache if you find it! With COVID, we're not venturing out that way very often, so will likely not replace until after the restrictions are eased.

TFTC from the Kayakviking. An interesting walk in a new "local" place and at least these residents don't have to worry about vaccine issues.
I grew up with the good Doctor and agree that the angels are still the scariest of his foes.
Would have helped if I had read the instructions properly and not kept staring at the statues - spent ages at one spot looking for answers (doh - 6 clues and 8 angels !).
Sums worked fine and found GZ (well the camo and a pencil). I have sent a note to the CO with a photo for a replacement log and container as I had nothing with me that would work.
Cheers KV

The Camo is all intact and at the right spot - no log book or container.

This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

Daytrip to Sydney with fitzy_1965 and albida33.

The main aim of today was to get Ruff and Tumble as I needed it for my Jasmer. After this was done and dusted we headed to French's Forest for a convenient CC event and then to this multi on our way home.

A clever multi and a fairly easy find here today amongst the muggles.

Canberra Day Long weekend Day 1. Sydney. After a weekend trip to Sydney last weekend there was an old cache we wanted to visit, so another trip was scheduled for today. I was joined by Fitzy_1965 & MinnieK for a day trip this time. We started with the GPP-G caches near Penrith before heading to Kuringai National park for a walk for three caches and a bonus Community Event in Frenchs Forest. The day ended with a fun multi near Manly. Then the dash home again for two more busy days of caching out of Canberra.

After the event, with the need for a multi we chose this one. It was a nice walk around the cemetery collecting the data from the angels. GZ was a bit of a surprise. I like it, but I hope it is appropriate.

Thanks for the cache zargfinders

**Albida**

23,753. Found with minniek and albida33 during a day trip up to Sydney for some quality caching.

After having an enjoyable weekend in Sydney last weekend, and seeing another Community Celebration Event happening, the three of us decided to head back up to Sydney, grab a series of puzzle caches we'd solved in Penrith, find and replace a damaged very old cache, the attend the event. This was the next find of the day. After attending the event we had tiome for one more cache before heading home. As an avid Doctor Who fan I picked this interesting sounding Multi. We had an interesting time wandering around gathering the required information, then after a few minutes searching came up with the cache at GZ. Signed the log (mainly as F65 MK A33), replaced the cache as found, then headed off home.

Thanks zargfinders !!

My second multi and my partners second ever find, he really loved this one!

zargfinders I found your cache Doctor Who - Blink on 29/9/20, 4:15 pm. This is my find 2729 and find # 9 today. Great multi. Walked around and gathered the information required. Got the green light from geochecker. Took longer to find than it should of. Very creative, a favourite from me. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN

Very creative!

Good quality multi, really enjoyed it doing it with my family.

Walked past the area a few times without noticing, very creative

TFTC!

An absolute cracker! Super favourite find and so much fun. Thanks for this one

A really nice cache to do while socially distancing.
My first attempt to find the information was done without the help of the WPs. I had a walk around the cemetery and visited every potential angel i could find. I ended up locating all but one of the digits required for the coords.
Once i got back to my starting point i checked the WPs on the map and worked out which one I’d missed.
Once id worked my way to the GZ it took me a minute to work out where the cache was but was impressed when i did.
A lot of fun.
The container is in good condition and the log is dry.
Thanks.

Caching with oldmorty this morning looking for Dr Who clues.
Family history is a hobby of ours, so oldmorty did some prep work to save time.
This didn’t save us any time at all as we couldn’t get the checker to agree with our coords. So it was off to the cemetery.
Having just found Doctor Who - Silence in The Library, we drove up the hill and found a park under a lovely shady tree.
We made a plan to walk clockwise around the cemetery and found stages 1 and 3 (these both agreed with oldmorty’s notes). We couldn’t find and angel for stage 4, so made our way to stage 5. It was here that we noticed the anomaly. A quick check with the checker and..... CORRECT (so we did save a little time).
Now off to GZ.
Oldmorty took off and I followed, just stopping short of you know what.
Well that was easier than I thought.
Another great cache zargfinders.
Thank you. Please accept another FP.

OCW frazeydaze on a warmish Saturday morning. I've been meaning to do this cache for sometime as I have several generations of my family interred here. I tried to be smart and solve the puzzle before leaving home but I couldn't get the ok from the checker so we did the cemetery wander and eventually realized the online mistake. This time the checker agreed with our solution and we headed off to GZ. After I walked straight past the cache, frazeydaze called here it is. How could I have missed that - well I wasn't looking for that size of cache. Thanks for another fun cache and worthy of a FP.

Added a log book with clue, cache note and pencil.

We've just been advised by Gozanators that the log book and clue are missing. However, the most important part - the camo - is still in place. So until the log book is back in place, you are welcome to log a Found It if you message us with a photo of the camo. Then we can send you the clue.

#1706. (Catching up on my logging - Jan 2020). Headed off to do this multi in November. Had only about 45 mins or so to spare before having to head off to work. Found all the clues but couldn’t find the cache anywhere. Had to leave and catch the bus. After checking through my calculations at home I discovered I had made an error which had put me about 50m from where GZ actually was! Now on my return visit I successfully found the very clever cache camo but unfortunately the cache itself and clue were missing. Advised CO who gave permission to log. TNLN. TFTC Zargfinders.

Thanks

Thanks

Fave point for sure this was one of my favourite finds of the day. I can see why it has so many faves. Very well done great little cemetery and met a couple of goregous pups along the way. Tftc

That's was awesome. One of my fav ones we have done today. Do glad we came here. Found the required info and found way to GZ. Lol loved the camo so well done. Fav point for sure TFTC

Thanks good camo

Late log! Thought I should finally find this one after creating the camo some time ago... Hopefully this stays in play for a while longer. Tftc

An excellent multicache. We had collected the required information in the blink of an eye. I kept looking over my shoulder to see if someone was quietly following me. At GZ we respectfully exhumed and extracted the cache container, signed the log, and reinterred it without any sign of disturbance. Well worth an FP from me. TFTC Zargfinders

A great cemetery multi. We had a little trouble with D as the angel is missing but found it eventually. Got the checker to give us the nod and found the perfect camo 27m away. Excellent work. Well deserved FP awarded. TFTC

Fun day out

#222 - Stumbled across this (not quite literally!) as we were walking back to the car after breakfast at Fika; I'd just pulled out my phone and said "I wonder if there's any caches round here" when I noticed a very likely suspect. Wonderful camo, I had a great laugh! Stupidly didn't realise it was part of a series so I didn't take down the clue, but I'll head back here at some point for the rest of them so no great drama. Thanks for the cache and especially for the work that went into unarchiving it - Blink is my favourite episode, so this one was extra special for me.

[edited to correct log number]

On these hot day, I was walking around there every stage was clear, than it goes to the final.
very cool

Enjoyed finding this cache, lots of history here, great camo, left TB. TFTC

Interesting walk around. Loved the camo. TFTC

#2104 (streak day #261)
Needed a non-traditional find for today's cache. This one was a perfect fit to coincide with geoSon's trial soccer game against Manly Vale. Dropped him off for his warm up and then came to explore the cemetery.
With a little bit of advance homework, the answers were quickly compiled and translated into a set of coordinates that the checker liked. I wasn't sure what to expect at GZ and got a pleasant surprise. Nice job with the replacement camo SpecificOceans. Took container a short distance away into the shade for signing, photos and to make note of the clue. Perhaps this was a mistake as the area near GZ was now being used by a couple of muggles playing fetch with their dogs. Seems a strange place to take your dog for some exercise but then again... Decided to do another loop of this lovely cemetery as the temperatures started to soar. On my return, muggles hadn't moved too far but were now facing a different direction which facilitated my replace. Phew - talk about not blinking...
TFTC zargfinders

Nicely themed multi! And very cool cache camo . This has been a really good series so far. TFTC!

Had a hoot going around the cemetery with Anominous Sign. We tried not to blink, but I think the angle was at our heels. We had to fake our own death to trick them.
Thanks for the awesome cache! Really love the camo.

#4839 (4 of 4 today)

Looking for a few finds today. But first I had to help the Geowife take Geoson #1's mugglemobile for a service. Planned to be back so I could take her to collect it again, but just after grabbing my last found out it wouldn't be ready until tomorrow. Hmmm, that could mess with tomorrow's caching plans...

In between the plan was for a few solved puzzles and a few more. Ended up with both planned puzzles, a multi, a traditional... and a DNF.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
So a **zargfinders** multi. Haven't done one of their caches in a while.

Started through the waypoints and collected the required information. What a pity the angel at one of them has been vandalised - what's the point?
Anyway, calculated my GZ and my initial thought was it's not where I'd have located it. And the logical feature to search was a few metres out - not what I'd expect from the CO.
Hmmm.

So searched and came up short. After 20 mins decided to recheck my numbers. All the info collected was good... Oops. Took the wrong digit from one of them. That puts GZ... in a much more logical area.

And spotted it immediately once there. Very nice. Yep, coordinates spot on as well!
Completed signing duties and replaced.

Time to head for home in case I'm needed - which I soon discovered I wasn't.

This one gets a favourite. Probably just being a Doctor Who themed cache would have been enough, but the camo is a top effort as well (thanks for the replacement **SpecificOceans**).

Wow! I was heading over to manly Manly again today and the time had come to grab the final of this amazing series. When I booted up my app I saw a blue face looking at me. Who are you? I have no DNFs left around here? Oh! Reactivation! How awesome. I was the last non-finder and although I already had the clue I had to pop by here first so I could officially say I'd competed the series should my hunt at the final be successful. I started hunting where I left off last time, only to find a few futile minutes later I had completely the wrong idea Brilliant! Massive thanks to Zargs and the generosity of Oceans in replacing this great cache. On to the final!

Unbelievable!!! So good

What a great cache, great camo. I got scared at some points but all round really great. TFTC

So pleased one of my favourite caches in the world has been resurrected- checked it out while I was passing - topped it up and left my TB- great job SpecificOcean!

Camo remade, back in play

On October 11th, 2017 we archived this cache because the camo had gone missing and we didn't have the time or energy to remake it. About a week later, SpecificOceans messaged us to ask whether we would relist the cache if he remade a similar camo. Our answer? YES, YES and YES!!!

Less than a week after that, SpecificOceans dropped off the new camo and cache box at the zargfinders workshop, where the log book and clue were added. The camo and cache were returned to their intended resting place on October 24th and on the 26th i,riblit unarchived the cache.

Fingers crossed the cache remains in place for at least another 5 1/2 years - and that it requires a lot less maintenance than the original.

Cache is ready and waiting to be found - all thanks to SpecificOceans!!!

It is with much sadness that we are archiving this cache. Over the years the camo has required a fair amount of repair and the contents have had to be replaced on numerous occasions. However, this is the first time the camo has gone missing. Sadly, because it was a rather difficult to make, we have decided not to remake it. RIP Blink.

Found all the angels but sadly no luck at GZ. The Zargs are however known for crafty caches so I took a photo of what I thought was the camo for confirmation. I'll be back!

Got the co-ords and confirmed with the geochecker, but after an extensive search and reading all past logs, could not find cache! Might have to get backup for this one...

Another beautiful day and the cemetery to myself. I have 4 generations of grandfathers buried here so felt kind of special.
I meandered around looking for angels and then when all found, realised there were handy waypoints for all!! Oh well, I enjoyed the hunt. Found final resting place of cache, signed shiny new log and left, unlike most residents here. TFTC. Clue noted.

After spending the morning on a cache maintenance tour of Manly Dam, we decided to continue the maintenance spree and drop off this cache. Contents have been remade and cache has been replaced. Hopefully it will stay intact for longer than last time.

Cache is ready and waiting to be found.

We were driving by the cemetery today so decided to check on the cache, given the recent DNF. Fortunately the cache camo was still there but sadly the contents had gone missing. So we've taken the camo away and will return it once the contents are remade.

Really tricky. We spent 1 hour looking for it

What an awesome cache.

What a great cache! I set off for the office earlier than usual so I could give myself time to do this one. Quickly found WP1 and made my way around the cemetery and found all the clues I needed, I like cemetery caches brw, I think this my 3rd one. Anyway after a good walk around I solved the puzzle and put cords into the checker and.... incorrect!damn I thought, not knowing which clue was wrong and not looking forward to checking them all again, I decided to check out the cords anyway, nothing (yet not knowing how close I was!) went back to all the angels, found my mistake popped new coordinates into the checker and bingo! Got the green light. Once at GZ I searched for a bit before finding the really clever camo and the cache. Really great cache, great hunt, well done. Because it's really good, I won't even mention how much I hate Dr Who! Also, my first multi!! Favourite point, cache #136 TFTC

Previously logged under team account BoogieRogue. Re-logging with my individual account. Had to walk around twice as we mixed up a clue. TFTC again a great cache

Had to walk around twice as we mixed up a clue. TFTC again a great cache

TFTC!

Returned cache camo to its hiding spot - complete with new log book, clue and geocaching note. No room for swaps anymore.

Cache is ready and waiting to be found. Hopefully it won't go missing again!

Thanks klahmz for letting us know about the missing cache contents - even though it was not welcome news. We dropped by the cemetery this afternoon and picked up the camo. What a shame to have to replace the contents. The cache hadn't even been found since it had been remade!

FYI Walking past today we checked the cache - found camo but it was empty

Chose this very rainy day to replace the cache, which had recently undergone surgery in the zargfinder workshop. If the two workers in their big truck (not working because of the rain) saw me, they would have certainly wondered why someone would choose to wander around the cemetery in the pouring rain. Hopefully the cache with survive the rain!

Cache is ready and waiting to be found.

Went to the cemetery this morning and was happy to find the remains of the cache camo - with berocca tube inside. Not sure how this happened, as the last finder only appeared to have found the berocca tube. One of the weeping angels must have been at work to retrieve the cache camo, fearing that the cache might otherwise be archived and not wanting to miss out on extra visitors to the cemetery!

Cache is in the workshop, waiting to be fixed. Not exactly sure how that will happen, but surgery is definitely required.

Thank you zargfinders for another excellent adventure. Though I must say, I felt a bit let down by the final find ... until I read other logs and realised it's been vandalised. Instead of something scary and sepulchral, only a naked, pedestrian berocca tube is left, sad and exposed. This just contains an ersatz log with a couple of signatures on it, and the clue part is missing. Maybe those weeping angels got it !!!!!
I gave it a favourite point anyway!!

Not sure what's left of the cache camo by now. A few weeks ago it appeared to still be there, just broken. But AussiePam's log makes me wonder whether what was left of it has also disappeared. Rather unfortunate if that's the case as the camo was a lot of work to make and we're not whether we could make it again.

We meant to check on it today while running errands, but forgot, so will try to do that soon. In the meantime, enjoy the waypoints. It appears that there's a berocca tube with a log sheet to sign.

In the early morning walked here and wanted to find some caches. Incredibly many people around this time were already on the way. The cache could be found thanks to the hint and the good coordinates.
Here we have a new logbook.


> TFTC say Moorhelmi

Very good. This was a very good mulity. Thank you.
