I noticed a few weeks ago that the fire engine was now about 100 mtrs NW of GZ. This afternoon, on our way home from a Fathers Day picnic at Sublime Point we detoured to investigate. The fire truck is now on private property and no sign of Coolangattasaurus. We parked on the side of the road and I managed to slip across the ditch & thru the hedge and nab the cache. I did not replace it, but have it with me. If you would like it returned to the fire truck I can return it later this week when I will pass again. Or return it too you at the next event.

Came down to Nowra for the kids zone swimming carnival which is being held over 2 days and as there was the ineviatable break in proceedings I managed to duck out and grab a few caches.

Heading home after day 1 we stopped by here where we quickly found the cache. I've often wondered how long before a cache would appear here.
Thanks
