I was looking for a while till i noticed something wee. This is more a Micro than a Small I took it to the GeoMobile to SL coz it needed to be handled with kid-gloves so the log would'nt come apart in my fingers. The tape on it had to be removed in order to get at the log.
It was successfully signed at 12:27 on Sat 22 Aug 2020. Re-rolled the scroll gently and placed the tape carefully back on as found... all good, but maintenance is needed for the container... especially in this environment in Winter [:o]
Replaced the hide as found.

This little tacker has lost its lid. Makes for a mushy or lost log roll. Will need TLC asap! Covered log with a piece of tape so you don't lose it Also smaller than a small
cheers

Went for a pleasant drive down South today, a few drive by caches and a few short walks.
We looked out and saw the ocean. We looked up and saw a cache.
Def not a small - but a micro size. Don't know what magic was keeping the log roll in there, as the lid is missing, but we added a bit of tape to stop it getting lost until can be fixed up!
Thanks for placing this cache for us to find azzo7777
A nice day out caching and walking with the help and company of Jack and Purrfect Di
Stay safe, sanitise, exercise, cache the regions ! ! !
Found It!
Very windy here today. The nano has lost it's lid and the logbook is looking a bit worse for wear because of it.

Hints made it an easy find, couldn’t write on the log because it was soaked but still great! Tftc
So this was a fairly full-on solo geocaching day for me today, and I wanted to make the most of the terrific weather that had the right temperature, sun out and blue sky. The plan was to head south to tackle some of the power trails / series, and for the most part, that was achieved. My day started at Seaford, and then it was a run along the creek finding the *Real Aliens* series. I then diverted towards the ocean, to find a nemesis oldie and enjoy a run along Moana's cliffs. A selection of the *Cats and Dogs* series were detoured past, before a break at Aldinga's bakery. Next was the *Forty Winks* series, and then back towards the ocean to enjoy a few caches at Sellicks Beach. It was getting to late afternoon by the time I drove through Myponga, and targeted a few hiking geocaches around there, and back towards Sellicks Hill. By this time, it was dark, and so made my way home, having utilised this great weather as best as I could.
Some great views from this location overlooking the water. This cache took a bit of time to find, and had suspected what I was looking for, but just wasn't in any of the four hiding places that I would have hidden it. I eventually made the find, and the cache container and logbook were in good shape. Thanks [@azzo7777](http://coord.info/PRQR72Y) for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Out and about with sir_spectre grabbing a few caches and getting a few necessary chores done. A nice quick find.
Thanks

Thanks for the cache azzo7777. Tricky one, took me a while but I managed to find it eventually!
Found myself in the middle of nowhere on a windy day that is Sellicks Beach. Popped into THE shop and then across the road to pick this up. TFTC
Small!! That's an exaggeration!! Long time since I've turned off the highway and come down here. Thanks azzo!
Wow .. can't believe I missed it after spending considerable time looking just about to give up and there it was. Good one. Thanks
Was able to get some time without being muggled to have a look for this one. Reading previous logs helped locate this little bugger. Found by The Boofs TFTC
was searching for a good 30 mins thinking i was looking for a lunchbox type size, then gave up and looked through and read everyones activity logs and eventually found the bugger.. bloody sneaky spot!
Found it, took a while going back and forth for about 30 mins and looking at the logs for more hints. Off to the next one ahaha.
Found at 16:45 by Olga before Stephen had even arrived.
We were on our way home from camping, and thought a quick swim was in order - either that or stop for a coldie at the Victory. We should have chosen the latter, as this beach is pretty unpleasant with a huge number of cars on the beach, and always someone driving up and down. We went for a swim, but not at this beach.

Off on a road trip to the Silo Art tour Vic, Mildura, Goolwa SA, Maitland SA and then home via Murray Bridge, Naracoorte, and the Grampians, picking up some caches along the way as we see the sights. We are now staying in Goolwa and after a trip to Onkaparinga National Park today we headed back to Goolwa via Aldinga and Selleck's Beach's and this cache was near our last stop for the day. Despite being vertically challenged Mr Pooky was still able to nab the cache. TFTC and bringing us to this great spot. Great Views.
My GPS wanted me over by the bins, but quickly realised it couldn't be there . Sat down and read some logs when I eventually spotted the container - doh !

Have to wonder who's removed all the gang nails from the roof structure [?].
Thanks Azzo7777.

It was a lovely day today and I didn't have anything planned so thought I would go for a drive down south a bit to find some of the new caches that have been published since I was last in the area. [^] I had a great afternoon driving some lovely back roads and seeing lots of great scenery and ended up with 16 finds.
I had to wait for muggles to move away from GZ before I could start looking. Soon spotted the little bugga but then had to get a geotool from the car to retrieve it. Signed the log and replaced the same way.

Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos.

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children. Where ever possible, we will maintain your cache as we travel.
After a week in Sydney, (without our geomobile) we are now back in SA - Willunga, and keen to make up time and start a new geo-streak. Drive along the waterfront near Aldinga Beach proved fruitless - two of the caches were at beach level and it was high tide, so we decided on Ocean Lookout for today's target.
Muggles in one shelter - and that is where my phone app was pointing, so over to the shop for some icecreams, and back to the other shelter, where a muggle was waiting for friends.
We thought the other muggles would never go.I, then realised the cache was in the other shelter - the one we were sitting at - with other muggles. Then had to wait til they went.
At least we got to enjoy a lovely view.
Tiny cache was found soon after, signed (stamped) and returned. Thanks azzo7777

This one took a while! Finally we understand what a nano is!! Very cheeky spot!
Just being a tourist jumping from here to there and finding the odd cache as well. Tftc.
Easy little find. On our way to 200 while we're in SA these holidays! Fee muggles around, stealthily avoided though. TFTC
Found with CPwanderer and clare007 at the end of a caching day.
Parked the car and found that there were muggles eating lunch in our target area.
In need of a lunch break ourselves, we went across the road and ordered. When we came out the area was free so we quickly claimed our spot. Cache was retrieved and log signed while we ate our lunch and enjoyed the spectacular view.

Finally!!!!!!! Two previous attempts unsuccessful as it had been muggled. Returned today with clare007 and Gizmos Gang for a quick find!!
Stopped to grab some lunch at the General Store and noticed this one across the road. A quick grab while I ate my lunch and admired the view.

No action on this since being disabled nearly a month ago. Ive made two attempts on this cache and on both occasions it had been muggled….. Really needs urgent attention or archiving!!
Sorry that it has been disabled for so long it's because I've had the flu and my package is taking a while to arrive
Might use nano

Didn't realise this had been disabled nearly one month before wasting my time driving here and searching for 20 mins.
CP was keen to find this one, which was proving to be tricky.
Its a popular spot for muggles & we constantly had to wait for them to leave.
We were having no luck finding the cache so we messaged a previous finder.
Still no luck, so we had to walk away from this one again.
Wonder if its gone missing again & if the cache needs a more secure hide....

Another extensive search.... including ringing a previous finder.... Nothing! As we are from Murray Bridge.... not just down the road... This is annoying
On the way to check on one of my caches. Found it nice and easy with my special tool but I had a hard time putting it back.
Great view
Thanks azzo7777 for the cache

*STF* When this was published I was 650km away in Ballarat. Today I came for a drive and made the find. Nice views. TFTC
Saw this come out a few days ago while we were away. First opportunity to head down south today, very windy so had the area to ourselves. FTF at 3.25pm. Thanks for placing this cache.
We searched on and when coast finally clear we got out the ladder.... Still no joy. Will watch this with interest.
