Sorry team. Nearby snoops/ Muggles have made this one nearly impossible to maintain, and we do not live close enough anymore to check on it as often as it needs attention.
This cache is constantly being moved and interfered with by the occupiers of the nearby building, making it very difficult for us to maintain. Sorry, but we are taking a break for a while.
Morris Crew strikes again. Not a magnetic micro. It’s PVC with screw cap ends
found the metal strip its meant to be on but no cache, looked round the base also but couldn't find it
Had a quick look on my way home from work. It was dark but nonetheless I couldnt find this one. After seeing the pics I knew what I was looking for but I couldnt lay eyes on it.
Nice quick find this morning kind of on my way to work. TFTC!!!

Found with magnet not attached. Couldn't get log book out may need to think bout bringing tweezers next time but proof on H3ADZ123 Page
Found it magnet came off, have jammed it back on but may need better repar tftc
Found it destroyed in the garden. We have replaced it again, but for the last time. Either muggles, staff, or other finders seem to think they can keep removing it . Sorry to the genuine players out there, but this is the 7th or 8th replacement now and we're getting a bit over it.
Replaced cache and magnet (again), all good to go again now folks.
We're not sure why this one is so fascinating to some folks that they need to take it away lol.
Cheers Lions.v.Lambs for the message

After arriving in Dunedin this morning, I picked up a rental car from the airport and drove down to Invercargill. After checking into my accommodation I took a look for a few caches around the streets of Invercargill. Made a quick find of the cache on the interesting feature here. TFTC!
After a late lunch at a nearby cafe there was time for me to check up on a couple of caches. A museum that I didn't know existed.
Found by Pratchettfan, while I was still lacing up my boots.
Thanks for hiding and mainaining the cache!

Due to the windy and rainy weather we ended up in Invercargill earlier than planned, so we used the fact that most shops are closed for a geocaching stroll through the city.
While Feeeeeee was lacing up her boots I quickly grabbed this box.
Thanks for this Cache!

Took me a second attempt to find it, as this was my first cache, I had no idea of what I was looking for! Going to start looking for more around Invers
In Invercargill for a ten pin bowling tournament, had time for a walk to fine some caches. Thanks h2os18 for the cache.
This was one that was recommended to me for all the favourites and a cute little Alkathene plug similar to one I found a couple of weeks ago. TFTC
no problem with this one a very thoughtful container great to see some of invercargills great caches TFTC
A week away down south and a chance for some caching. Was a nice and easy find this with the hopes of lots more. TFTC

We are on a road trip around the south of the South Island. Today we traveled from Te Anau to Invercargill and Bluff. This was a quick find in a nice location. A nice cache container. A favourite point from us. We had a bit of trouble re-attaching it but got there in the end. TFTC.
Never knew this museum was here despite having driven and walked pasted it on many occasions... It was closed today so I had a peek in the window. Cache located quickly. TFTC!
After a half day of travelling and a visit to Bluff we had enough time for a nice walk through the city. We let the geocaches lead us. Ending with 11 founds.
All CO's thanks for giving us a nice afternoon and a lot of information about what we have seen.

Today we had a great trip from Te Anau to Invercargill and on the way we manage to find some caches. This one was easy to find. Many greetings from Germany and TFTC
After a few days of very intense work activities, I had one last full day free in Invercargill before I head back home to Nelson tomorrow. I headed off early for a full day out caching to see how many caches I could find. The weather was threatening but apart from a cold wind and occasional drizzle it really wasn't too bad. An interesting spot. It was closed so no one around which meant I could look for the cache in peace. All good here. TFTC, Biggles.
quick find and we had a look through the windows at the museum as it was closed for the day tftc
TFTC h2os18! It was great fun to find.
This is now cache #19 for me!

A wander around town on our way to find something to eat. Interesting location with historical fire fighting equipment
This looks to be an interesting place but it was the wrong time of day to have a look inside. It is a nicely hidden cache.
#4531. I flew into Invercargill this morning for a work trip that starts tomorrow. So had time today to do some walking around the inner city and looking for any geocaches that were nearby and muggle free. A bit of a fresh breeze blowing today but stayed fine. Good hint here made this a simple find. Good to see a different type of container. Signed the log and replaced the cache as found. Thanks for the cache h2os18.
