Hi c0mpmatt,The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention, or it may not but in the absence of the cache owner performing maintenance and/or disabling the cache to check it out, 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 4 weeks) 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 4 weeks 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.Ngaambul - Matt

Found on a day trip to the area. Finding the cache was pretty straight forward, but it's in terrible condition - the log is soaked and mouldy, as well as rusting due to the lack of lid. I'm sure it doesn't help at all that the log doesn't actually fit in this container without contorting and squishing it.

Interesting place to hide a cache though! There was soccer on but thankfully they were in the next field over!

Photo is of my poor attempt to sign the soggy log.

TFTC!
 
23-Apr-23
Desperately needs to be replaced!

22-Mar-23
Running errands in the area, found it pretty quiet to finally detour past this one on a weekday … other than some under 5’s having a tennis lesson nearby and a massive swarm of bugs around GZ, seemingly unaware the light wasn’t even on! Luckily it was a quick PnG even though I was expecting the listed small, not a standard micro (with a broken lid, otherwise all good).
 
07-Mar-23
TFTC Thank you for hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity. Good hint.
 
24-Feb-23
Confirmed in location and contains log. It has been wet due to the weather so will arrange a new sturdy container and replace in the near future. Leaving in place however.

Headed down south to find some treasure around Bulli with Oldmorty and Missmorty. Arrived to be greeted by a flock of cockatoos munching on the grass. Sent Oldmorty in to retrieve and sign. TFTC!

#8752 (2 of 13 today - including 3 Adventure Labs)

I am terribly behind in my logging. It's getting close to two months since I regularly reported on the caches I've found. YIKES!

In this time only the Adventure Labs found and my First2Finds have been written up - don't want people racing out when it's already been snaffled.
But I've been busy finally getting ready to move into our new house - now in and I'm still coming to terms with the extra room/rooms!

But I did still try to find time to cache on the days that my 2022 goal of 16 finds per caching day demanded I find something. In fact, for the most part my modus operandi has been to actually aim for 20. So far I've only failed on that a few times, and only by 1 find. Amazingly I'm on track for 19 finds per day, but somehow I expect that will eventually prove too hard as I have to travel a good distance if I want more than a cache a day.

Anyway. thanks to all the CO's who are getting short shrift from my generic logs. I hope to eventually get back to them and flesh them out, but no promises.
I've found some fun Traditionals and solved some interesting, but not impossible puzzles. And Multis and other cache types have been grabbed where possible.
###END OF GENERIC ABJECT GROVELLING SECTION###
Anything interesting from my day will be added here - don't hold your breath.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Anything specific to this find will be added here - really, DO NOT hold your breath.

Quuck find. OCW Brewmaker. TFTC

I nearly butchered the log as it was squashed in without the plastic bag and took ages to pull out of the cache. That's one of the reasons why I'm not a fan of mint tins. A quick find otherwise in a quiet park. TFTC
 
27-Feb-22
Very annoying to get
 
26-Feb-22
First ever geocache! We need to get better at looking. Was quite easy once we knew what to look for.
 
26-Feb-22
Thanks creator. It was fun and our first one

Find with my girlfriend on the way to the beach didn't take long till the prize was in hand.

Down in this area today with the GeoWife for Valentine's Day (Yes we are a day early).
With permission, I was able to collect a few caches on the way home to finish climbing Mt Everest.
This was a quick find.
TFTC.

Came for a drive down to wollie to get out of Sydney for the night and hitting some caches on the way back through! Great hiding spot! TFTC 2
