As lots of last finders have written that the logbook is full, I didn't even try taking it out and go through the pain of unrolling and rolling it. Photolog instead.
Mike's condition is strange indeed.

TFTC!

So tiny! Log was full though Sad love the storylines to these caches that make way more sense when you're in the location Smile
 
07-Jan-18
Good easy cache, lovely day with lots of muggles about. Luckily cache was easily found without acting too suspicious. TFTC. Log was jambed in and rather than attempting to remove and cram it back in took a photo. Too many muggles about for that kind of carry on Smile

Cool place to hide a cache sooo tiny couldn't find it without the hint cool that it was magnetic it didn't take us that long to find it thanks to my sister
 
18-Jun-17
We discovered that both our ancestors had lived and worked nearby in the 1800s and almost definitely would have known each other. Such a small world.
After visiting their former residences we were in good spirits and thought we would top it off by searching for a cache and this one was perfect, just around the corner.
It appears that the nearby retaining wall is used extensively by smokers as there is an abundance of butts and a lingering smell but fortunately there were none around today.
We found the cache after a brief search. So small and such a great hiding spot.
Thanks for the placement.

Find #2732. Had time to kill around the hospital so gathered a couple of caches. Not too hard to find in between muggles. Hardest part with these is rolling up the tiny log paper in the wind. SL TFTC.

I had to visit the Hospital today. Thought it was a good idea to find this one while I was nearby.

The log is full and there is no room to record my visit. However, I attach a photo of the cache and the log as proof of finding.

Thank you

Walked from the zoo and my fingers were nearly too cold to retrieve the log sheet. Tried to sign log but not much room. Photo attached.
 
04-Sep-16
We have many of these nano containers in Hong Kong and am used to finding and handling them. The log is full but you can do as I did by filling up a gap left by previous cachers. The log is nice a dry and can be rolled up easily. Many thanks for the cache
 
03-Sep-16
Nice park n grab. Didn't open as those nanos are difficult to put back together so assuming Log full. Pic instead.
 
27-Aug-16
A busy spot.

#112. Log is completely full. Signed in spot #27, the last available. I pass this cache every Wednesday when I get the Meals on Wheels that I deliver from the hospital kitchen to some needy old people in Kilbirnie & Lyall Bay. Usually the area is populated by smokers indulging their vile habit, but the weather today meant that GZ was completely free. It was pouring down and blowing a gale! Smile Tftc, but see "Needs Maintenance" note!

After dropping Mrs S and the youngest off at the hospital, I popped around the corner to find a few caches (Mrs S had given me permission to go caching instead of having to wait for the youngest to go through the routines at the fracture clinic). This cache was the first and was super easy as it was on full display walking up to GZ. Log signed it was then wait and wait..... for a free spot amongst the passing muggles to return. Placed back in almost the same spot as found but this time protected from muggle eyes.
Thanks for the cache. Haven't had the joys of a 'pill cam' but have had a camera up the arm to have a look into the heart....!

Only one spot left on the log to sign, recommend replacement shortly.
