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 listing and post a new note every 30 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Unfortunately after a good geoventure with my buddy MizCupcake tonight, I have to log a DNF on this one. Coming through on a quiet evening we spent some time having a very systematic search over the top level and the stair well. We found many a good spot for a hide but came up empty handed in the end. This cache seems to have it's ups and downs, with maintenance performaed erratically. *Can the CO please check on this and confirm it is still in placed or perform maintenance as needed.* I believe it has either been muggled or possibly dropped and lost from the top.

My mum and I found it in 10 minuets! It’s very well hidden (it’s rusted and so is the thing it’s placed on) and I recommend you to use the compass! Make sure you bring a pen though
 
21-May-18
cashe and log in degrading condition. Very well camoed. forgot my pen so I had to go back down to car. container is pretty rusted (camoed) and 2 lists. 2 list falling apart. just grabbed this on way home else I'd have bagged the list. not easy to see with afternoon sun in eyes.

Blends in well! TFTC
 
19-Feb-18
Needs maintenance. Definitely not there based on previous photos.

I think you're underselling yourself with the title here CO, it's a great hide, regardless of the type of container. Enjoyed the space without any muggles about on a Sunday afternoon and were very glad that we'd read the hint before making our attempt. Top hide jayden.streatfeild.

#3914 (5 of 5 today)

Another day where I need 2 finds to meet my goal of 5 finds per calendar day by the end of 2017.
After a morning of Pokémon Go with Geoson #2 - is last day of holidays - I set out for the junction of the M5 & M7.

Was looking to get 5 finds, and got them despite being muggles out of two previous DNFs - so no change there.
Two finds were in places where I'd gone past them previously but not searched, so at least a few holes plugged!
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
I found a cache closer to the station a while ago, but decided not to grab this one - for reasons that now escape me.

Time to knock this one off - hopefully I'll have better luck than the muggling out at the CO's other caches today. It's getting dark, and I parked close - over the road.
Pretty quickly realised that I needed to relocate.

That done it took about a minute to make the find - under the glare of the security camera.
Took away to a spot with no nearby cameras to complete signing duties, then back for the replace.

Time for home.

All sorts of excited to find this one.

Glenfield is Purple's 'home' town and so much change has left her feeling ambivalent about the place.

Purple only gets to Glenfield once every couple of years but wanted to nab a 'home' town cache.

Fortunately, a near-by cousin (also a Glenfield childhood local) had also done a small amount of caching and was very happy to assist in the search. So at 4.30pm Saturday afternoon we set off on a pleasant track-side walk.

When we were children here, there were only 2 platforms, no lifts and certainly no car-park , high rise or otherwise. The stories I could tell you about the goings-on of this station back in 'the' day. We also calculated/guessed that when we lived here only 1/4 of the houses were here. Glenfield in thirty 'short' years has 'boomed' - good or bad - who knows as I no longer live here. It's certainly bigger, busier, more anonymous and more cityified.

Both our fathers as we grew up were train mad and the theme/location of this cache was just perfect. Unfortunately, we talked so much as we only catch up once in a while, we forgot to take in the view at all.

My cousin signed off as Madhatter in log book (although we are both aware this caching name most probably won't be available). I vote for Madhatter_Shazza but doubt that she'll be into that.

OK, thanks for the adventure in my childhood/teenagerhood stomping grounds

24/9/16. 3:55 PM. Cache #4232.
2nd of 6 this afternoon - Glenfield & Macquarie Fields.

After "Great Southern Road - Glenfield", I came here. Having already read the hint, I parked in the street outside and found my way to GZ via staircase. Checked the satellite photo to head to the exact spot and made an easy find. Back down to the car and off to "Kennet Dog Park". TFTC.

OK I hate cut and paste logs so will try my best to add a little something different to each log I post. Code 1 and myself were out on our annual caching run weekend. So some of our logs read both names but to save room on micros and nano’s etc we used CJ1.
Like most of our past trips a little homework was needed to work out a suitable location, route and to build lists and PQs, with this done and set we found our self’s in the Camden location. A great range of finds and styles were located with a great deal of questioning over some of the posted difficulties and terrains.

Found on a weekend invasion of my old romping ground with JAB's.
It's crazy to see how much the area I grew up in has changed over the years.
