Sad to see these gone as it really was a great series. CO has given permission to log a find and caches are removed. Thank you for all your efforts and hard work here OldHag Tftc
I think given the location and amount of car parts and burnt trees, "black" doesn't seem like a very fair hint :/
Catching up on logs, found this with Black Flag 78 and ODST 501 (formerly Black Flag 001) great cache series, glad I got to experience them.
Catching up on my logs, found with Black Flag 78 and Black Flag Angel on a family day out. Signed as my former username Black Flag 001. Great series, TFTC.
Stopped here to do the ones alongside here before going home for the day and enjoyed the containers used for these caches. Took me a few minutes before choosing the right spot but got there. If I was a cat I would have lost one of my nine lives I reckon but after that wore off the cache was in hand, log signed and returned as found, TFTC.
If you come across from the poo loves honey lettercache there is a crossing at the creek. Easy find SL TFTC

Didn't find it was here for ages, big hollow places where it would most likely to have been. Will have to have another look
Needing a cache for today and going with the theme for the souvenir I wanted to do one from one of my favorite CO'S hides. TFTC and another great cache, I look forward to doing more of the series when I'm well enough todo soalso a favorite point from me to
We found this cache today on our round through Pooh Corner. Thanks for this really nice and well maintained series of caches.
Laughed when I found it. I have one at work I keep putting it in a mates toolbox as he hates them.
No, no, NO!!! No way I would grab this container although I knew what it was... Needed help from a family member to get to the log book. TFTC
After having having searched unsuccessfully previously, we decided to try again today inspired by recent finds. Whether it was the different light or just luck, we finally found what everybody has been so terrified of and even though we knew what to expect, it made half modelbear jump when she spotted it. Perseverance finally paid off. A favourite point from us. TFTC
Really well thought out find really glad we came to this cache. Just glad it wasn't real!!! TFTC SL
LOG IS COMPLETELY FULL
LOG IS COMPLETELY FULL
Hubby: "scared the living tripe out of me". They got a stick to make sure things were safe before they proceeded. Unfortunately log is full. Wrote over top of faded entry.
Added a pic of the logbook's container to prove we found it today (Oby88 and I). Really clever little cache container- not for the faint-hearted, when you first look, if you're phobic
The log was completely full, thus the pic instead.

Cheating a bit with copy paste logs as I realise I haven logged this big day out with Menstrietash and Zee+glee and I'm now on holiday so will come back to finish the logs later but this will keep things in order to log the holiday finds!
lost count already!
A great log holder and a reminder of the reason I sometimes wonder if this is the best sport to play in Australia!

Had a fair search for this one today, however it appears that there has been a serious car accident very close to GZ and we were a bit distracted by all the car bits and pieces strewn around the area. We will put a watch on this one and return to have a better look in the future.
Left Chloe in the car again as we stopped the cars near GZ. Luckily i managed to get a little more charge into my phone and I headed straight over to where I thought the gps pointed to. Picked something up. nope thats not it, had a closer look, Argh! I found it. Had the shivers because this is not one of my favorite things in the world. but before extracting it, Menstrietash had to come find it too. TFTH! Really well thought out hide.
Our last day in Ipswitch, this morning we headed out to Pooh Corner.
We are so pleased that we chose this series of caches to do with the limited amount of time we had here. A pleasant level walk around the track.
The caches were all found & they followed the Pooh theme wonderfully. I certainly would reccomed this series to others.
This was a clever hide, have given it a favourite point.

just visiting and enjoying your amazing reserves of native bush. Really enjoyed this series around Pooh corner. Thanks to you all for your efforts. Looked in the likely spots but there was no cache to be seen
Caching with friends. A quick find but we were unable to sign the log as it was full. TFTC
Caching with friends. Quick find. Log full, unable to sign. Novel cache container, hard to spot. TFTC.
Very cool set up on this one and well blended into its host. Thanks an old hag.
Personally, not a fan of the container for this one! Although, I am quite afraid of these creatures so that probably doesn't help...
As three out of four of us are extremely afraid, it was up to Geago to poke it with a stick then get the logbook out... Signed, and placed back by Geago; and were on our way!

An enjoyable walk through the hundred acre woods today with engphil , palopinto , madscatts geosie, bopsygirl and the minniemoo tribe . TFTC
Find #1879 at 15:09 with the whole family plus 1MinnieMoo, 1MinnieMooJnr, 1GiantPanda and ScattsMadhouse and MadScatts.
We were initially misled by the previous cache, but soon realised the cache wasn't there, and discovered the correct GZ.
Ha ha. It certainly gave 1MinnieMoo a start when she found it, followed by lots of laughter.
Watch for barbed wire up near the road.
Thanks for the cache, an old hag the cache maker.

All of us were unsure why the cache was called Moreton outlook, both before and after we had found the cache - is it in Moreton area? Sadly I think we will be remaining a little ignorant here, however, as we had a cache series to complete, so why puzzle over it too much.
I found and got a little fright on this cache, my reaction drawing the others over quite quickly, with 1MinnieMooJnr looking almost directly after me and getting a few heart palpitations too. ScattsMadHouse had wandered directly past this and looked just before me but somehow had missed it. A clever little hide, despite its "drawbacks", and a little fun along with the shock.

After searching the obvious places at ground zero and having no luck I read some of the previous logs. I knew what I was looking for and widened my search area and soon found it. Even knowing what it was I still poked it with a stick first!
Out caching with the kids. Took us ages to find this. Even after reading the previous logs I still got a fright when I found it!!!! TFTC!
Found this evening with Goldielover. We spotted a nice looking place to search and found a very pretty finger nail but no cache. Goldielover though had more luck in another spot. It is great having a few unfound caches near us to fill in some parts of our grid.

I spent a while looking for this, after reading a few logs I soon had an idea what I was looking for.
Quick stick check, log signed.

So I was out with the mad dogs and English men today... boy it was hot. I had missed my usual morning time-slot so headed out at my lunch break to do a couple of chores and have a quick look for a cache. Surprisingly under the tree cover it's not so bad, but it's very dry out there. Would hate to think how fast it would go up if something sparked a fire.
In any case after following the bouncing arrow for a while, one spot looked pretty likely and after a second look I spotted the nicely done cache. Did the signup and hightailed it back to the air conditioning.
Thanks old hag, this one is my favorite for Pooh Corner so far.

We had a free day on our long weekend in Brisbane so decided to head out to find the Pooh Corner caches. We saw three kangaroos and a goanna on our 4km walk. TFTC
Like a lot of other cachers, I searched close to where the GPS was pointing and then read back through the logs to see that I had to widen the search area and then i spotted the spooky hide.
Glad it isn't Halloween yet.

A nice easy find. Had decided to meander through the bush to this one. Much more pleasant than walking along the road. TFTC.
I found this cache a few weeks ago with Jaseck however my phone had low battery- tftc
Headed to this one next and soon was where I needed to be.
The dead skippy was a little on the nose nearby.
Soon found what I needed to and grabbed the cache.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks an old hag (Not) All good with this cache

So many caches in close proximity for us today. No 2 caches the same and with a lot of creativity.
Almost gave up due to smell of rotting roo on road, at this point as long as the cache isn't in the carcus, I don't care what kind of container it's in. Tftc
Got to GZ area and started searching looking for something black. After a search we came upon the cache that is certainly black. TFTC
I'm always freaked out by these containers. Lol. BCF88 and I enjoyed finding several park and grab caches along this stretch today. It was a fun trip. Tftc.
I had been wanting to do these Pooh corner caches for a while, as I have always been a big fan of "Winnie the Pooh" and friends. I needed to get 3 more letters to complete the "September" challenge and coming here today allowed me to do so.
I really liked this cache, but I image some would be a little perturbed. Nice job. TFTC
