Hi Travelling Sister,
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Found the ‘grow up and get a job’ note but no geo... neighbours must have clicked on
With clues such as 'no need to climb bank' & 'gaffer tape' & 'near the greens' you would think a 1.5 difficulty would be a quick and easy find. But not. Looked all through retaining wall and hanging branches with a torch in the middle of the day and nothing. Hmmmm.
Coleboyz Teamwork.
Both E&W found together.
2nd trip back here.
Save yourself a climb...

Visiting my sister and realised this one was just around the corner. So we both went for a stroll and wouldn't you know it my sister who has never geocached before found it. Even stranger as we flipped through the log book looking for a spot to sign I stopped at a page with one name on it. My sister then exclaimed "that's my grand daughter!" Didn't even know she was a cacher.It was meant to be. Thanks Travelling Sister.
Grey Nomads, hold up in Wellington Point while Mrs D recoups from bi lateral knee operation. We have not cached much since Covid hit, but today, Mrs D cried boredom, so out we went to find a few caches, she navigates, he is runner, she does the logging.
Today's count is 2 finds 2 DNF and a DNfinish!
Have found many Mary MacKillops around our caching country, another ticked off the list. Thanks Kristie Morgan and Travelling Sister

I came around the corner to find substantial roadworks underway, and my heart sank slightly. However the road workers were much more interested in the traffic than me and I spotted the cache on approach. All is good here. Log is dry and cache is tucked away safely. TFTC
Out and about with Grand Poobah and doscrapbooking on this fine day to find a cache. 
A quick find close to where we were staying with friends. [^]
Another Mary MacKillop cache found.
Thanks for the cache.

Brother Colin, doscrapbooking and I found this cache as we were staying with friends just down the road.
Thanks for the cache.

Nice easy one. Nice puddles over the road. Good to watch everyone “not” go through the flooded water. We took the round trip. TFTC
Another one in this series... but the first one for me in quite a while. All good here today so TFTC.
A bit of rain as I looked for this one.
Not much time to appreciate the surrounds considering the weather.
A quick find, easy to spot the cache
Thank you for this one

Really easy find! Emptied out some gross hairballs people left in there! (Thanks team) left some cool stuff
Retracing finds from a few weeks ago with my little sister, when we forgot to bring a pen!
A quick park and grab here today as SElva Girls stopped so I could make a find. Tftc Kristie Morgan and Travelling Sister
Yes Yes Yes, these sort of caches always get the mind thinking 'noooooo'. But the co-ords for this one were so perfect. Walked straight up to the spot and cache was there in the first place we looked. Awesome. Onwards to the next one. TFTC.
Had to take my grandson to cricket training and seeing as I was in the area I had no choice but to sign my name TFTC
So many muggles going passed in cars! Did a bit of a search with no luck. Read the hint....oh. Found soon after. TFTC
We parked the car directly opposite Ground Zero...didn't realise
it at the time though, just coincidence.
We crossed the road and had the cache in hand within a few minutes...we did see a photo and thought it a good place to start.
The child safety cap was almost adult safe...almost.

Caching with Snickersallen today we were brought to this cache by her desire to find as many Mary MacKillop geocaches as she can. There are so many in so many different places in Australia. My geofriends made a quick find on this one while I was clamboring to greater heights. Thanks for honouring Mary MacKillop by placing this cache here. Her policy was something like: "Never see a need and do nothing about it". Snickersallen might be able to put that in the correct wording. Cheers and happy caching!
Out with geo friends whilst enjoying my first visit to the Wellington Point district and I requested we make this a priority as I love finding Mary MacKillop caches and I think if everyone lived by her famous quote of 'Never see a need without doing something about it' the world would be a much happier place. This was a nice quick find for us today, thanks Kristie Morgan and Travelling Sister for the good placement and TFTC 
Had to collect another Mary Mackillop when out at Wellington Point today - the container appears to have moved out from its hiding spot as I spotted it as I was walking to GZ - after we signed we made sure it was a little better covered. Thanks.
Great cache although I was a bit scared putting my hand in there! A neighborhood dog got a bit protective of his house and started barking at us. Watch out for muggle drivers!
