The Area has been upgraded and looks fantastic I have moved away and am opening the area for someone else to use if they care.

Pretty sure this one is no longer here. There's been a bit of work here of late.

Pretty sure this one is no longer here

Did not find it
Think the cache is either missing or destroyed.
Did however find a piece of pipe with nothing in it that may have belonged to a bong!

Out with my friends for a day of fun and hi jinx. With time to kill we headed to this cache. Well the cache certainly wasn’t head height…. Unless we mean KBreeAHH’s head height perhaps. Cache was found on the ground due to all branches being pruned off the tree.
Thanks for the cache chamad.

Found laying on the ground at the base of a newly pruned tree. Lid missing. I stamped with my carebear stamp while wearing my carebear shirt. Was disappointed to not find a carebear here

Easy find but has a wet log but we were able to sign it. Tftc

I was here to do a job at BCF (without success). After more caffeine at Maccas, I looked around for a cache and found this one.
Wandering up here, I discovered that ‘after work’ means ‘peak hour’ around here. Fortunately I had my Maccas to allay suspicion.
Speaking of suspicion, there were three dudes up the far end of the carpark seemingly trying to deconstruct a treadmill and get it into their car… I’m sure there is a perfectly innocent explanation for whatever they were getting up to.
Anyway, as reported, the tin has lost its lid but the bag is OK (kind of) and I added some silica. As long as the tin hangs upside down, all will be well. TFTC!

Made use of the neighbouring bottle shop’s carpark for this one.

Found on a Saturday morning just before the bottle shop opened. Quite funny to see a sizeable line of people waiting for the doors to open. A pity that’s what they’re deciding to do on a sunny winter’s morning. Oh well. All good with the cache except for the top missing and the logbook being slightly damp.

TFTC!

Out for the morning with nikid1 chasing a particular attribute for the May challenge. Nikid1 drove us as close to the cache as it's possible to get & a very short time later our names were in the log.
Thanks for the cache chamad

Out for a morning of caching with KerriMG before I have to head off for work. Chasing night attributes bought us over to this side of town.
Very quick find by KerriMG here. The cache’s lid is missing but the log is nice and dry.

Out for a pedal over to Calamvale to do the AL there. Rounded up a few strays on the way. A nice 45km ride before it got hot.

No troubles getting to this one on the bike. The hint made for a quick find.

Quick find on my way to the movies today. Tftc

Found it

Thank you

Had to read the hint as struggled to close in on the zero
Find number 28309 for me.
Thank you chamad for hiding this geocache.

Called into bottle shop for some liquid Christmas cheer.. Noticed this cache was close by..easy find ..tftc. Merry Christmas to all.

We arrived early for tonight’s event so naturally wanted to come find this cache. With the car parked we wandered over and actually spotted the hidden cache really fast. We signed the log and left the cache the way we found it. We did a little CITO-ing as we walked back and then decided a cold drink was in order.
Thanks for this new cache in an area we were visiting tonight.
Cheers and happy caching!

Quick stop while my friend went for a haircut. So impromptu that I committed the major sin of forgetting to bring a pen. Took a photo if proof required. TFTC

A new cache in my local area. I was not able to attend the event here when it was placed but I was passing the area today so dropped in to check it

I must have had the wrong glasses on today as it took me a while to locate what should have been an easy find.

I was out today chasing caches for geo rodes November challenge and was sorry i missed the event yesterday. Just got back from Tuncurry. I had to wait in the car for awhile as muggles were right at GZ. The bottleo was calling me so i popped in to get a bottle of red and by the time i got back the muggles were gone and i soon spotted the cache. I am now enjoying a wine while writing my log. Thanks for placing this cache here for us to enjoy

No luck

After a little point in the right direction we managed to find this one. Sat in the car for a while until the coast was clear and then went in for the grab. Log signed and returned to its rightful place

[ Joint FTF] at the Event where the CO was preparing to head to Whittlesea in a couple of day time. The Friend Bear had a very unique release while we were attending the Event. Log was signed by all who attended before returning to GZ outside. TFTC

After spending the day with my daughter and grandson on the GC, I arrived a tad late to the event. After enjoying a lovely meal with geofriends, this new cache was discovered and the {FTF} was offered to all attendees.
Thanks Chamad for allowing us to share the love of a first to find.
A fav point from me.
