Headed out after some time in the pool.. beautiful day for it! Took me a little to find this one but once I saw it I knew! Log signed and replaced! Thanks
Ahhhhh there you are.Previous pics definitely helped here. Glad there were no trolls in sight today.TFTC!!!
Couldn't see anything out of place but a broken string. Might still be here, but can't find it today
headed off to Ipswich today, for the witches night markets and to help my daughter out.Decided to hit a few along the way.I found your cache, I'm not a troll today. This is my 2762 find.Quick find.igotahunch, TFTC, TFTH & TFTSF
A great little hide luckily no trolls around 2 wreck this find
Log is in great order hide is hidden in plain sight
I am currently on a road trip from Victoria enjoying Queensland in the days before a family event.
I am driving around getting new local government areas to fill my map and make it worth while in a geocaching way
I want to say thanks to the CO for the placement of the hide

I hope the tent under the bridge belongs to some local kids and not someone doing it rough. Feeling unsure if there was anyone in there, I carefully searched up and down the bridge. Finally spotted something that might be a cache and with a bit of manoeuvring managed to get my hand on it.
Thanks An Old Hag for the cache placement and igotahunch for maintaining it.

Super hard find but we got it in the end! This was our trickiest find yet! So happy we persevered!
Hmmm unfortunately this one got the better of us. We were in the area chasing boxing day sales so at least not all was lost.
During our recent stay in Ipswich, we found the cache and signed the log.

It took me a bit before I spotted it. A previous photo helped. Thanks for the cache
Jumped on the Moggill ferry while the geo kid is at training to do a cache or two on this side of the river. TFTC
Needs alot of maintenance, there are spiders with a nest inside of it and the log book is soggy. So needs alot if maintenance.
Knowing that this one had survived the floods I came here.
Luck had me in the right spot straight away.
Thank you for hiding this geocache an old hag

This evening with the publish of a couple of new geocaches in Ipswich, I decided to make the drive and explore the area. I quite enjoyed seeing a few of the local monuments and the University of Southern Queensland campus, and I ended the night by checking out a few creek caches.
My final cache find for this evening, and I decided to swing past here with confidence that this cache had recently been found from all of the Brisbane heavy rain / floods. I've done enough searching along creeks recently only to leave with a DNF.
This cache took a little time to find, and I needed to read the hint a few times to understand what it was referring to. It took a few ups/downs along the bridge, and then finally taking another approach for finding this cache. I feel like this cache was very lucky to have survived the recent floods, given its position! The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks an old hag for the cache placement, and Wardy079, muggle no more, and Igotahunch for its ongoing maintenance.

A crafty container in a nice spot.
Judging by the mud markings, this one only just got missed by the recent floods. Lucky.

Mrs Woodyrothwell and I were heading for a night away in Ipswich and there wasn’t a single hostage involved. Somehow we had found a hotel and restaurant combo pack in town better than any fast food establishment can offer.
Our original plan was to grab a few caches around the place and then check in to the hotel for a glass of rewarding bubbles. This was our first hide of the day and our grandiose caching plans were squashed in the blink of an eye the second we got out of the car. It was oppressively hot and I’m sure even the sun was looking for a nice cool shady spot to hang out in.
We didn’t have far to walk from the car but the magic popping corns I keep in my pocket in case I come across some loser selling a cow we’re going off in the heat. I used to keep magic beans in my pocket until I got sick of beanstalks growing in my pants each time I pissed myself.
What we needed was a quickish find so we could get back to the car aircon before we melted. In fact we both agreed to set a 2 minute limit so thankfully we came up with the find. Did I mention is was hot? tftc

As I approached GZ I picked a side to start with and spotted the likely suspect. Gotcha a great hide, tftc
Signed and replaced as found.
Many thanks for the cache.

On the way to Toowoomba my husband and I decided to pick up a few smileys on the way. It was my husband who spotted this tricky hide. I love it. Thankyou for taking me here and for placing this cache here for us to enjoy
Took me a couple of minutes, then spied something that made me look twice, and then I had the cache in hand. TFTC!
In there area and decided to stop off a this one, a quick find once at GZ. TFTC Igotahunch
Out with Mr CuriousQuest, finding a few caches. This one was very quickly located by Mr Curious Quest. Log signed, everything returned as found and we were on our way again. TFTC
Out and about today with Selva Girls to pick up some caches today. A nice quick find log signed and caches returned as found. TFTC
With a focus on Lab caches and picking up the odd icon that has gone neglected for too long, I spent the morning with NurseyJulie sorting out sorting all that out. [^]
First actual cache on the list, NJ had already secured the find some 3-4 years ago, so it was all on me. Scanning both sides of the location, I spotted something that was a little out of place and soon had the cache in hand.
Name in the log, I returned everything as found and hit the road.
Cheers old hag and Igotahunch.

Took us a bit but once we remembered anything can be a cache we found it great hide
Wandered up and down the bridge a few times before we had an idea and hey, there's the cache! We appreciated the solid construction of the cache and remarked that it would last a long time. TFTC.
Gotcha. It is just over two years since we first looked for this cache, in that time it has changed ownership and location. TFTC. Find 1033
A late night call to OBC and a plan was set to do some target caching on an assortment of caches in Toowoomba. An early morning start on a fresh, wet morning saw us leaving and heading west then a backseat surprise from mini obc was my wake up, lol. The targets were some oldies, some letterboxes, some for DT matrix, a FTF, a couple of puzzles and the odd trad as we stepped over it. It is always a fun day and an adventure when we get together and today was no different. We did have a little hiccup when we thought we were going to be stranded in Toowoomba and our caching day brought to a sudden stop. But a quick call to RACQ and a quick fix and we were soon on our way again. The list got shortened but then it got added to in other ways. A passing storm and wind gusts did see us having to abandon a few targets but we did make up for it on the way home. An awesome day with lots of laughs and some brave adventures.
This was our first find and in the early morning darkness we still managed to find it. A nice hide and a quick find, thank you. With log signed and cache replaced as found we were off to the next on our list.
Thank you for placing this one here for us to enjoy.

Ahh, the first cache of an awesome day!
Chamad and I decided to head to Toowoomba from Brisbane, and pick up an assortment of caches along the way. Some caches were for the date published challenge, some for the 360 degree challenge, some for the DT matrix, some because they were oldies, and some because they are already fulfilled challenges. And some because, well, you never walk over a cache.
Somewhere in the middle of Toowoomba, my car broke down, and our plans were thrown into chaos. RACQ to the rescue, and we were back to caching, albeit an hour behind schedule. Our luck continued into the afternoon as a storm rolled over, the temperature dropped, drizzle gave way to heavy rain and wind, and our commitment to the greater cause was traded in for some warm food and the safety of the car.
Still, a fantastic day with great company, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Only found with the assistance of “an old hag” with calls of “cold” and “warmer”...
What a pleasure to meet someone with so much experience and the disposition to share their time with a total stranger whose introduction was “are you geocaching....”
From my introduction to the work of “an old hag” years ago in Pooh Corner (now archived) I am a fan, and today did not change my opinion one iota... tftc... have a fave point just cause I want to...

After 5 minutes of being clueless, Mr Krispy Kreme finally found the well camouflaged cache. FP for this one! Love it. (Some of the pieces that hold the cache in place have become unstuck though).
This was day 4 of our 7 days of caching streak.

Out for another day of cycling with a little geocaching to provide rest stops along the way. I caught the train to Ipswich and started my loop back home by bike. After a bad run of DNF’s ( 4 in a row) the day settled down after that. (Appears that 2 of the 4 had gone MIA and the other 2 well maybe I had not woken up or the DNF’s left a bad taste in my eyes)
Bit of a hidden short cut through here. Shame there is not better signage for the Ipswich Motorway bikeway, if seems very disconnected around these parts

This is the third time that I have visited here. The first was a DNF and the second was for a missing cache.
I returned today to convert the frown into a smilie and had a quick find this time.
TFTC igotahunch. This was the 4th frown that I have converted for the day.

We came across your cache, an old hag / Igotahunch, while on a quick trip to Ipswich.
Nice quick find once we realised what the description meant. All in good order.
Log signed and cache replaced at 11:16 AM on May 3, 2018. TFTC.

I haven't had time to race out to this cache, I feel it will still function as intended without the glue. I will be out soon.
We are nomads. Having left Perth WA in February 2014 we now live in our caravan and go wherever the will or caches take us.
Now in Ipswich for medical appointments, today we managed to head out and cache as we completed some tasks on our todo list.

I know this is a new cache, but sadly the glue used has all come apart, so more repairs are required.
Some would say it was a crocodile in the water.
Construction still in progress.
Construction still in progress.
I finally have this one back in play! There is a new container which isn't as clever as 'The Old Hags' original, but should get you looking. No need to go under the bridge as it is still fenced off.
I have nearly finished a new container which obviously will have to be approved by 'The Old Hag'. Hang in there, its coming.
Still waiting. There's a lot of activity right next door so a bit longer maybe required.
There is a lot of work going on around GZ. The cache has disappeared so it is on hold for a short period, until I can make sure the guy are finished.
First look with the family and and we couldn't find it. Will have to try again soon.
Spectacular morning looking for #300 but it was not to be here.
Extensive search above & below failed to find the prize..

I can now claim this as a find as I no longer own it. Thanks to igotahunch for taking this one on.
Found this one today for the first time with Hero8of3. I have recently adopted this cache. It's currently in a temp container & I will endeavour to replace with something more interesting, but for the moment, the new log is dry & ready to be found.
Temporary cache in place until I get around to making a proper one ... please write your name small enough to allow others to add theirs as well
My second attempt at finding this cache and I attempted it from the opposite direction this time.
I was getting out of my car when I heard a greeting and said Hello to the CO.
We took the stroll to the cache an, luckily for me, The CO determined that the cache has gone missing. That saved me a long, fruitless search.
I will return when the cache had been replaced. Good to have a chat with the CO. Haven't seen you for a few years now.

We took a slight detour on our way home this arvo to get this one.
At GZ we looked and looked and looked some more. Then we found it.
Great work! Fav point from us.
Thanks for the fun.

Out and about this afternoon and this one was next up on the list for us We pulled up on the roadside and made our way over to GZ. A quick search of the area and we couldn't spot it, so we expanded the search and a PAF confirmed we were on the right track. We soon had the cache in hand and added our name to the logbook
