Looked for this quite awhile ago and kept it in my watchlist but forgot to log a DNF. Can the CO check this please?
Had been found previously by geosis & geonephew but after super-thorough searching , no luck!!
I was feeling hungry at the last cache find.
Out with RoddyC for the day to grab some smileys around the area.
Fish and chips would be nice.
Had to travel for them. Thought RoddyC was going over the border for them.
Arrived in Currumbin for them which took a long while to get cooked and less time to eat.
Fortunately we were sitting on our next cache.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks Rainbowfish1
All good with this cache

All good with this cacheWe decided back at M'n'M #4 cache to have some lunch and we agreed that since we were on the Coast, Fish and Chips would be in order, so we tried to locate a Fish'n'Chips shop somewhere, and the only one we could locate quickly was at Currumbin.
How is it that on the Gold Coast it is extremely difficult to locate a Fish'n'Chips place??
It took over 45 minutes for them to fulfill our order of grilled Flathead and sweet potato chips. Team Benders ordered after us and received their order after us, so I don;t think they had to go out and catch the Flathead or peel the sweet potato!
So we had lunch in this nice little park and added the cache to our caching day.
Found at 2.00pm on 22nd November 2015. TFTC.

Found it! Still in the process of trying to get the log out, definitely worth bringing a toothpick or similar 
Lots of muggles,however the cache maker and I waited them out ---- log book is full so we wrote over another name
Took quite a while but found it in the end. Needs new log. My first nano cache.
Quick easy find, usually don't like nanos. This was easy though. Needs a new log. Tftc tnlnsl
Wow that was hard
Took for ever. But after checking the same place over and over eventually found the sucker tftc

Finally found it!! Took my caching assistant and magnetometer along and she found it pretty quick on the third spike!
Log is full but managed to squeeze my log entry in.
It only took me 2 years to find it ... argh! Thanks for great cache!

GOT IT!!! signed log & off to the next.... thanks rainbowfish1....(missed 6/9/14)This is one of those caches that could be easy or hard depending on where you are looking. For me it took much longer than I expected because it was in the last place I checked. But, there it was and I happily retrieved it and signed the log. Many thanks Rainbowfish1 for the cache and showing me this nice park. [^][^]
Kids and I could not find this for the life of us, is there any chance of seeing if muggle has picked it up????
Couldnt find it beacuse there wad a family of muggles sitting at the location of the geocache
Lots of muggles around and the location of the cache makes it hard to be discreet! Oh and probably not the best day to wear white clothing...!
Arriving at GZ I noticed there was a nearby cricket match under way. But I did not see any chess or checkers players today. Lucky or finding this cache may have been either more difficult or rather awkward. As it was this was a simple and quick find. A beautiful summer's afternoon of caching continues. TFTC. SL.
Out for a day of caching with JooJoo57 and this was to be first on our list and wouldn't you know it, council trucks and workmen sweeping the road, hmm they are not near us so lets give it a little peak and a feel and a oh yes, what about this. Nice hide. TFTC
Out geocaching for the day with DiamonJs. Started early as it was predicted to be a very warm day - so glad we did. The council workers and RACQ were also here looking for the cache!!! We carefully searched as the lingered near the carpark. A previous log helped and then bingo cache was found. TFTC.
