###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###
----------
This cache is carrying one or more logs which suggest some attention by the cache owner is needed.
The guidelines advise that the CO should make occasional visits to check on the cache as well as promptly address any logs that indicate that the cache requires some attention. If you can not attend to the issue promptly, then you need to Disable the cache - I have disabled it this time.
Please respond to this situation (or indicated your intentions including a date) within **28 Days**, otherwise it will be necessary to withdraw the cache from the Active listing. The [Geocache Maintenance guideline](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance) explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.
**And don't forget,** once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; [Removing the Needs Maintenance Icon](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; [Temporarily Disable and Enable ](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) to get your cache up and running again.

Grrr.. cant claim thus as a found.. change your punctured tyre at the other "cinipc blate!"
Geocache seems to be missing. Will replace cache ASAP and update log. Apologies for any inconvenience.
To my shame I had to check the hint but we got there in the end. Another great hide for the geokids to find. TFTC
Back to cross it off the DNF list after CO kindly replaced it and let me know. Glorious Sat morning stroll in a very nice reserve. Birds singing, fit people running and cycling. Me walking. TFTC #422
Cache has been replaced and placed in the same listed location. Fresh log and container etc. Happy hunting!
Cache is missing. Will have this replaced ASAP. Apologies for the inconvenience and lack of maintenance of my behalf.
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.
I am 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 or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Unless I completely misinterpreted the hint and unscrambled the letters wrongly I must have been almost sitting on where this cache was supposed to be. I had a decent look but no sign of it.
I think this cache was not where it should have been as it was sat on top of the fence, left it in a more hidden location at the same coordinates.-----SL-------TFTC
A very quick find thanks to the hint - felt the difficulty rating was higher than it should be though. The duck pond was dry as a wooden god during the current heatwave! Log signed.
Out and about with Team Waldron to kill a few hours while some hens played down near the beach. Plenty of second hand duck food around and the odd duck. Now back to the hens.
Thanks to isDon101 and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!
Went for a morning walk to find this one. Had found the others in the area previously before this one was placed. Sat down and signed log. Beautiful location.
Sorry for late log - found 15/9/18

Another afternoon of caching around the southern suburbs of Adelaide, picking up some more finds. A slightly quieter day than yesterday, though it did include a few more dnfs. Despite this an enjoyable afternoon was had and the caches found were in good condition.

Joined today by Mrs DISK's sister on a drive around the southern suburbs [^].
Being such a nice day, it was surprising to see no-one around here
- certainly makes the caching easier 
.
TNLNSL. (And yes, there were ducks on the pond
).
Thanks Maclean101.

Out for a night cache. This one was on the list to be found. Lots of noise from the creek but a great night for a find. TFTC!
After dropping my caching buddies off I decided the day was still light and bright so grabbed a few more...
A lovely park to go for a short walk to collect the 3 caches here...

Out for a morning's caching down south.
It was cold but dry.
Nice easy find. No ducks too cold.

i ducked in to the duck pond to find only ducks watching me, so i quickly ducked out after stamping the log.
Out and about this afternoon so thought I would get a few new caches while I was out. [^]
No muggles around, I took a seat and found the cache in the first place I looked.
Thanks for the cache maclean101.

Saw this one published, then saw it retracted, then read the note about the cache being placed again. Heading past I decided to stop and have a look. A nice new cache with a blank log book. {*FTF*} for me on Saturday afternoon.
We came we searched we hoped for a ftf however found only a magnet .. unscrambled the hint and followed to it accordingly . Thinking maybe it's fallen off ?
Cache only just approved. Will be placed tomorrow morning. Apologies for the inconvenience. I will notify when placed.
This listing is being retracted because it was submitted before the physical cache was in place.
The Guidelines clearly state -
> Place your geocache.
> A geocache must be in place and ready to be found before you submit the cache page for review.
