Tea for Two in Treloar. East Tamworth, New South Wales, Australia
By lohanfinds, mikeyjames2020 on 21-Feb-13. Waypoint GC46BCY

One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep 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, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 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 am 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 28 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 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Cache has been muggled and has been in pieces for a long time. Also cache owner does not seem to be active anymore.

Found prices of smashed cache

DNF at 5:41 PM. Not a good way to end a big day of caching, but if it was in that tree where there is ivy growing all around it - we couldn't find anything there. We also checked all of the surrounding Cyprus trees and ended up sneezing all over the place, but no cache.
Feedback: What sort of a hint is that? The GPSr takes you there! We want a hint to find the cache once we are at the given co-ords!

Found this cache without JabberHand

Had a cup of tea

Awesome location

Easy to find. TFTC

No lid on cache container !
Easy find.
Thanks

Today we did a tour around Tamworth, we visited many parks, lookouts & the wonderful tributes to Country Music of which this town is so famous.
The caches we found were interesting & varied. The cachers of Tamworth should all be proud of their well maintained caches.
Thanks for placing this cache lohanfinds

From the picture of a broken piece of the cache container this is needing some attention.

Found cache container smashed on ground

Found smashed cache on ground near GZ.

Found pieces of the cache and possibly the former place of the cache given the older logs, however, I couldn't find the cache itself.

Cool cache container. Nice find

As per the previous log we are not sure if this cache is in the correct place. After finding the GZ container we realised that we had walked over some broken pieces on the way to GZ. SL TFTC

Found the cache with GCookie, but NOWHERE near where the GPSs were pointing. Looks like a broken piece of the container in a more recent log (sorry about the late logging - 11/5).

1320 GAFF1 (after an aborted DNF last night)
After a (unlogged) DNF yesterday here as it was getting dark, I came back today for a better look / feel! Was going 'the hard way' by just using the coordinates and name of the cache, so thoroughly searched GZ, and was sitting down wondering how else I could find it I spied something that certainly didn't look like a cache, but I thought I had better investigate since it was out in the open. Went about 20 m away, and sure enough, it was something that could fit the cache title, and there was the logbook inside! Not having read previous logs I took back to GZ where there is something quintessential to the title, and hid the container there.
SORRY if that is not actually the right spot, but it is NOW within a few metres of GZ, and NOT some 20 m away out in the open !!!
Having found a tennis ball in my search with MVMB I used that to help plug up one of the holes of the container. With the coordinates being SO FAR OUT for where I found the container there was no way I was going to leave a Correct Site Marker there. The log book was reasonably dry tho.
Brought through for mileage: 12-12-12 Event, 3 Bros NSW, Auckland NZ'13, Aussie Christmas Geocoin, B 2 B Travel ingot, CII-35Z, CITO - Upper Swan and Beyond geocoin, Explorer Tag - Jeremy, GCookie EARTH Cache 10 year Celebration Coin, GxPROXY Traveller - MATT, Iconic Bridges 2012, Mei letzter Schilling, cache critters Baa, Neigh Neddy, and Oink, NZ Mega 13 signature, NZ Mega 2013 GCookie Coin, Semmels first 1,000 Geocoin, The Cache Koala, X-Mas Geocoin 2011, and trackable shirts.
TFTC lohanfinds - it may 'pay' to check where you had hid it, and where it is now, and adjust if needed. Cause it has certainly moved from the original coordinates.

Great find but be careful to put all of it back TFTC

9001 caches found

needed the corrected co ords for this one


Took: Nothing
Left: Nothing
Thanks lohanfinds for the hunt today

Found while here for the Country Music Festival. This one had us going for a while, reading and re-reading the previous logs. Even the cache page had us wondering what side it was talking about. We eventually found it 14meters out. Try these updated ones.
Thanks for the Cache and Cheers from Browngang

The Line Dancers were camping here during the TCMF, and GZ had me within 1 mtr from 2 of the tents. I felt awkward poking around the trees here. I checked the large tree (with tap) without luck, then all the other trees nearby, until an earlier log suggested I try across the bridge. Still no luck.

Good hide - team handle took travelbug

Found by team handlel. Nice cache. Follow the yellow brick road but if the troll bothers you you went too far

Great cache log bookis wet
Left American flag travel bug

A great Cache, but it took some locating, another recent log entry made mention of the coordinates not being totally correct I had the same trouble. If you live in Tamworth do please go and retrieve the log book, as it is wringing wet and very difficult to put an entry in the book.
Another Cacher mentioned to seal the spout, that is a good idea. But I have one further suggestion, that being to fit the container with a waterproof "Tea Cosy" to prevent rain entering through the lid. From the available photos it is no secret what the container is. (it also needs a new coat of paint)
Please don't take offence at my comments, it is a great and well placed Cache and I enjoyed it TFTC.

The Alice quotes made much more sense after finding the container. Initially looked in the wrong place, because we thought a tree with it's own tap was the most likely candidate. Didn't think to look on the other side of the bridge for quite a while! TFTC

Found this one before heading home from Tamworth. Good container however a little damp inside. May I suggest that you seal the spout to reduce water from entering. TNLN thanks.

Awesome cache. Beautiful spot in Tamworth.

GPS was off about 15-20 meters.. The enchanted tree does pull you towards it.. Beautiful wildlife.. Thank you.. Challenge TTW

Bit of hunting even with three very keen helpers dnf maybe next time!

Haha really hard
Not were your suspecting

TFTC. As others have said GPS coordinates are off

I bit far away from the gps co ordinates aye

Found this one on second attempt. Didn't have Uncle Grant with us today so maybe he was holding us back last time

Wonderful cache container!!

TFTC

Signed log and left bouncy ball.

Hubby found this one!!! Great spot!! Took the badge... Left a gnome

Cool container

Tried getting this one yesterday, no luck. But today it was an easy find with the smucklettes. tftc

Walk around the coordinates in a 17 m radius to find this cache

Cache number 3 for the day, as previous finders have mentioned approx 15 m off but very easy find once you're there. TFTC

There really was a magnificent Faraway tree where I headed immediately I saw it, thinking it held the treasure... but no, a few meticulously placed stones inside the hollow at the base of this tree hid nothing... a false lead, I am sure of it! I could have sworn I saw the saucepan man high up in the gnarled and twisted boughs, and had to wrench myself away from this mystical and majestic king of the enchanted forest to continue my search. The Angry Pixie under the bridge refused to whisper the secret so I searched a little further afield and a little higher, when what did I see??? I accepted the offer of refreshment from dear old Moon-Face, and signed the visitor's book when all was done. Exhausted by my adventures, I fell asleep and dreamed of clouds and The Land of the Wishes..... Thank you for inviting me here today, Iohanfinds Added to my Fave list for the excellent container and that fantastic tree nearby!

Found, however ditto on the previous in regards to the co ordinates placing you on the wrong side of the bridge.

# 6569 Found on our 2013 winter escape trip to Qld.
Just a few to find on a short stopover in Tamworth.
No muggles around here today and co-ords were about 15m away,
like a prev finder said, on the other side of the bridge for some reason.
TN LN SL. Thanks for the cache lohanfinds,
Roostaman.

A great find after Agquip. The camo on the cache is wearing off and Geo-Teen found it quickly. We tried to add natural camo once we replaced cache. We love the form of the cache. Very clever. We signed the log & added our pathtag. Thanks lohanfinds & mikeyjames2020.

Found it not where I expected since the coordinates were out. The item provides its own cover I had thought one of the southern trees was holding up two fingers but I was wrong. There is a very nice enchanted tree near the GPS coordinates complete with tap for tea water but it is the wrong side of the bridge.

Looked & looked - no luck

Found with georgia, Joey, jayce and Sam. Very easy, pretty cute idea.

Wow, did not expect that ^_^

Finally found the enchanted forest
Traded a 1700s Chinese coin for a 2011 Canadian one

Our first one, my boys were very excited.

Spent half an hour looking for this one with no luck Might be able to try again tomorrow.

What a cleverly named cache! Can't say we've ever found a cache in one of these before. The container was damp inside but the log book was nice and dry in its zip lock bag. Thanks.

No tea today?

Took a lot of searching to find this one because the coordinates are a bit off but it is an easy find once you head in the right direction. It's definitely a creative cache and I liked it once I found it

found with an old hag


thanks for the cache

the cache maker makes caches that are different and so we both thought that this one deserves a favourite point because it is different - however it really needs a brown paint job ASAP, because it is clearly visible from the path at the moment and the difficulty is only a 1 the way that it is

thanks for the cache lohanfinds

Spent about an hour here.
Looking and re reading past logs.
Couldn't find it anywhere.
Looked at co ords as well as surrounding area.

If this cache is in place we will try again next holidays.

It would be interesting to find out where it was.

SJBS+Kids TFTC excellent hide! Bring your own cup

SJSB and skidlets... We were looking on wrong side of bridge!!

Second attempt, found with team SJBS and kids, great idea for cache!! Enjoyed thoroughly.

Spent about half hour looking for this one, even with other logs could not find today, will try again another day!!

Yep, the GPS had us barking up the wrong tree ; Our GPS was 17m out also, so look further yet closer , How it is still in situ is puzzling [?] SL, TNLN, and a fav point from us anyway .

What a cute cache! I found it only after reading other logs as the GPS was out a bit. Took an angel, left a Doctor Who badge, replaced the ziplock bag. TFTC!

I seem to have logged this find before but it is not on the listing. I found it after the second attempt with some help from another Geochacher. (8D)
A well hidden cache and is remarkable that it has not been Muggled. Took a Koala and left a flashing light.

TFTC great hide, as mentioned GZ is a little out but thanks to previous logs found on the other side of the bridge. Zip lock back is broken and will need replacing particularly if we actually get any real rain.

tftc found with geopartner

After a very cool night camped at Uralla (-3) we finished all the caches there and started heading south again picking up as many caches as we could.
We pulled up here and must have been having GPRr problems as ours had us searching in the wrong location totally. We rang a previous finder and they guided us to it and a nice easy find but the GPSr was still insisting it was 18mts the other side of the bridge.
We have to say we did get a smile getting this smiley.
Thanks lohanfinds, mikeyjames2020

what a great cache, i was in the right area and just happened to place my hand on it whilst leaning in to have a look as it was just on dark. a lucky find...

Up and down the path over the bridge and back again, remember not where you think it is

Great little cache, co-ords definitely out by a little bit though. Probably would've taken a fair bit longer if it wasn't for other people's logs. Still good though.

Found on 2nd attempt
took travel bug JZH219

Try again tomorrow!

Thanks. Found on north east side of bridge. Coords may be out. Left travel bug.

Awesome hide. Great find. Thank you

After much searching, we finally found it. Nice find (:

Will be back later

Found it. After much searching and frustration found after looking in that spot several times. Head slapping moment for sure.
TNLN TFTC

Back for another search for the elusive tea for two and this time we got out of the rabbit hole and in the right enchanted spot. At last, a fairytale ending. TFTC Iohanfinds, left TB.

Really mastered my tree climbing skills on this one. Turns out it didn't help at all

Very Cool

It was fun looking for this. This was my first ever cashe find.

Yay found, met other cachers for first time and it was they who found the goods, coords were out by near 20metres

TFTC meet some other people looking for it.

We found it after a little bit of searching. This was our first time, we are hooked!

Found it! Made us smile, we liked it.

Will come back again another day

Tea Pot - Would you like some Tea???

.

STF
Found this one 10m from GZ.
At home i saw the new hint.
Nice hide for a cop of tea.
Thanks.
J-N

Nearly went mad trying to find the Hatters pot but eventually found my way out of the rabbit hole. [:o)]

Got right up to GZ and searched in the wet for about 15 mins before I closely looked at the cache attributes and realised tree climbing was required...I had suspected it might be up there.
Will try to come again on our next trip through town.

It's still there, the owners might need to recheck the coordinates. Here is a photo to help people follow the yellow brick path.

Up high enough to not be affected by weather! And in a dry place.

Saw this fairy tale published 40 minutes after driving through the area .Bugger gone to far to turn around now. Now returning after 7days away decided to arrive unannounced for a cup of tea. Approaching the bridge ,Troll shouldn't be a problem looks like his was in flood zone. Over the bridge, alas failed to find anyone home,knocked on every door not a pot in sight. Thanks for the invitation .

Had a good look but no luck today. Met another cacher looking too but 5 sets of eyes could not locate.

Hate to say Did Not Find, I must have spent well over and hour and half then Bessie's Mob appeared and still no luck for any of us. Nice to meet other cachers

Woohoo FTF!!
Such a brilliant cache container and clues. Thanks for the new cache in town
