Hello, I plan on reactivating this cache within the next two week period. I am waiting on a suitable container so that I can make a better hide than the last one, so hopefully it will last longer.
Thanks for your patience.
Thanks for your patience.
Unable to find the cache. Sad. A lovely spot. Have walked past here lots of times when we were muggles!
Couldn't find it at all. JoStock - 14 Dec 2014, found 6.

I checked on this cache today and it seems it has gone missing Will have it up and running again in the future.
Quick find! Nice little park area away from heavy traffic, good for the kids.

Down south for a caching run on a sunny Friday afternoon.
I was distracted by the interesting mini-Stonehenge thingy here.
Soon moved on to GZ for an easy find
On we rolled...
TFTC RPW cacher! A nice location!

I came up this way yesterday but this little park was muggled out by local exercise enthusiasts. They weren't close to GZ but after wandering down I just felt a little sus so I had a look around then left.
Back earlier this morning and thankfully no one in sight just yet. Just as I took off towards GZ I could hear a maggie singing away, so I quickly grab a small branch that was lying on the ground just in case and took off. Well thank goodness I didn't try yesterday as this little sucker took me a while. Hopefully no one was watching me as I walked around in circles for way to long. Eventually found it and got my name on the log. Thanx little BoDiddlies and of course I had to try out the stepping stones. I thought about climbing the big rope climbing structure.

After parking at the top of this park we headed down towards the Stepping Stones. Then it was a case of waiting to search between muggles. There were a number of cyclists about with the nice weather. We soon made the find and added our name to the log. After replacing it as we found it we headed back to the car and off to our last in this area for the day. TFTC
I noticed another car parked close by when I stopped and found that there was a family group in the picnic shelter as I approached the search area. I don't know if I spooked them or not but they decided to pack up and leave as I approached. Very convenient.
A short search and I came up with the cache, thanks to the accurate coordinates.
I followed the family back up the path to the cars.

I had a few hours spare this afternoon and decided to come back up to this little area as now there were 4 for me to find in close proximity and with little traffic. 1st puzzle cache GZ was already full of activity as I drove in so I went straight to the second puzzle and then down here.
What a great park for kids. I would have loved to have a go on the flying fox but I would have strangled my dog as I dragged her along with me.
A family arrived soon after my arrival. There was a huge lizard just near GZ not moving. I moved in and extracted the cache moved away and signed and then used the lizard as a reason for moving back to GZ. Only problem was that some members of the family and their dog were also interested in the lizard. Nothing to do but take the cache for a walk down along the path and hope that they had moved away when I came back.
Pretended to have another look at the sick lizard and replaced the cache. Thanks RPW cacher.

Our daughter (Coucho90) and her partner (Jarred86) are up baby sitting for a week and were free today to do some caches with us so there was no stopping us!!!
We had found a nice group further north and were now heading back to our place for tea so we decided to stop in here to see if we could grab a few quick ones!!
We checked out the stepping stones and then started our search!!
The GPS was pretty accurate here and so we soon tracked down the prize!!
Thanks RPW Cacher TFTC SL

FTF @ 8:56pm. We had just finished our movie when the notification came in. Sal was feeling a bit weary, but Anth was keen. Ok... Seeing as it's father's day... Let's go. Headed to GZ and Anth had the cache in hand after finding it by torch light. Lots of birds and bats in the trees including a tawny frog mouth. Thanks for placing the 670th cache that we have found so far RPW cacher!
No logs after almost an hour so I decided to head out, it's been a long time since I got a FTF. No cars around when I got to GZ mad no torches in the bushes... I was feeling good. Quick find and I unrolled the log to find... Beaten congrats sal and anth and thanks RPW cacher for the cache!
