More than a year since the last find, no owner contact, this needs to be reviewed.
I found what appeared to be the right spot, and style of hide, but no cache.
One of the previous logs seemed to confirm my suspicions.
Needs a check for the CO and maybe needs maintenance as well.

Looked around for a good half an hour with geokid7, but no luck.
I have an idea of where the cache is and will return again with a torch.

The cloudy weather and occasional drizzle has the advantage that muggles prefer to stay home or wander the mall. So today, in all peace and quiet I quickly found this little cache.

What a greta little park. No-one was around so I made the find without any trouble and met a man and his dog as I was leaving. TFTC.
Quick find as the rain falls down and lightning right across the sky. OCW Brewmaker. TFTC prof_inkling
Thankfully the park was empty as I conducted my search this morning. Nice quick find on a beautiful sunny morning. Thanks for the cache!
A quick find this morning while out checking out the new metro and collecting caches for Mystery at the Museum. Thanks!
TFTC. Needed a bit of help from the activity log. Eventually the 10yo found it
Nice quick find on the way home from work, thankfully I had the park to myself.

Exploring a new area one cache at a time.
Another pretty park in the suburbs, deserted so we could have a quick grab

Find #: 2,009
Companions: None
Muggles: A guy and his dog
Weather: Very hot summer's afternoon
Cache condition: Good
I needed to go to Bunnings, and on the way home decided to avenge my DNF. A dog walked into the park before me, followed after I entered by its owner. I made a quick find this time in the likely spot - TNLNSL, TFTC

TFTC! Good to turn this into a smiley, drive past here a lot finally had a chance to stop.
Nearly muggled but thankfully they coughed loudly giving me the chance to hide the cache again!

We parked and walked over to GZ in a little park which had no other visitors on this overcast but dry afternoon. There was one very possible place to search and there was the cache. Thanks prof_inkling for the hide.
I have mixed feelings about caches hidden in playparks. On the one hand, it's great to have a cache to look for when I take my own kid to play in the park. And caching has led us to some pretty and interesting parks in various suburbs.
On the other hand, when I'm on my own, I don't feel very comfortable skulking around a park looking like some dodgy character. Sooo, they probably work for me when I have my son around, but otherwise are probably best done when there is nobody around, like at night or when the inclement weather keeps people indoors.
Fortunately, today was a grey and rainy day, and school holidays or not, there was nobody outside today. I found a nearby parking spot and ambled over towards GZ. It was a quick and easy find -- it helps having some experience and recognising the likely hiding places.
Log quickly signed and then everything put back as found. Then a decision to look for the cache at the old gateway, also within walking distance.

This one does seem to have replaced recently, either by the CO or a community maintainer(? given no maintenance log). TFTC
Muggle stealth was needed for this one! Pick a quiet time for optimum sneak. Found with @bigswifty1
I'm going to log this as a find and give the trackables some mileage even though the log is inaccessible. Cache owner hasn't been seen for over twelve months so maybe it's time to archive the cache.
The cache container is inaccessible. It can be seen with a torch. The cache owner hasn't visited the website since January 2016.
Time to archive, perhaps?

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
I arrived on a right spot at GZ except I can’t reached it so I will say easy and quick find. You will need replace a new one. TFTH
I was looking for a cache to get the NYD souvenir and this was enroute. I parked right next to GZ and headed over, glad to see that the playground was empty. I searched the likely spots, and then read via the previous log that the cache has gone south. Thanks anyway.
We were entering the park as it was getting dark. We had to use the torch on the phone. It wasn't difficult to find the right spot but the container had fallen down and we couldn't retrieve it! We could just see the little container at the bottom. We recognised it from one of the previous log photos. We found it but IT NEEDS MAINTENANCE!
Another day with sevabo and ozuk, Nice park area - signed the log.
prof_inkling thank you for organising the cache and hunt.

Looked for an hour but couldnt find it... i think someone may have took it because i looked almost everywhere. Maybe because it's autumn it got buried with leaves.
Wow! Easy find. But, after half an hour looking inside countless stumps and eventually realised out of our complete stupidity, we were NOT meant to be looking inside stumps! We were actually looking for nothing in particular. But with the help of Technological_Terror, we found the cache! TFTC
It was an easy find and was fun for the family. In the end it was like "This one! No. This one! No. This one! Yes."
It's always easier to find playground caches on a wet day not that I am a big fan of them. We had this in hand after a short search made easy by having no muggles around. TFTC.
Tftc, easy grab with the rain keeping the park empty. This one? This one? This one!

Parked right outside the park and saw a muggle playing with his dog in the park.
Hmmm, can I use stealth..... sure I can. I made my way over to GZ and proceeded to visually scan the area for possible locations for the cache. After a few incorrect guesses the right hiding spot was soon found. I casually signed the log and replaced the cache. Lol just as I was leaving so was the muggle with his dog

Three standards options… found on the third try… 3m from arrow’s indicated GZ. Still, a quick and easy find.
Back in this area and spotted a new one to me...!
Having seen this style of hide before, it didn't take long to discover but still a good hide.
Could be a little tricky for the newbies.

Tagging along with Robak65 after work, we stopped here to keep my streak going and do one he hasn't done yet. Was a quick find as it turned out, muggle free as we had the park all to our selves, great timing. A nice location for my 100th find.

Headed westwards for another cache of the day, to keep the current streak up. Parked in the street and luckily found the park completely abandoned; it might have been more difficult with muggle kids and parents around.
The cache was located in the first place I was looking. Signed the log and replaced, and headed back home again.

Second visit to this park and cache. Don't know what happened to ur previous log entry on the 14th October but this was a bit harder. Last visit we broke up a fight to the death between a pack of Common Myna's (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_myna) and their unrelated native cousins the Noisy Miner's (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noisy_miner)
I was hoping the locals would win but I need to get to GZ. Picked it on the third try.
Today the park was overrun with bigger noisy things and their grandparents. We had come in from the opposite side and I was sure it was the same park but until I locate located our log entry I wasn't leaving.

Geoson Lachnic and I both went for the same things as we determined GZ. It was a case of "which cup us the ball under?" Lachnic chose well. TFTC
Cache was in good condition and was a nice find for the day
