Logs
As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us, and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.
Checked on the cache, urgent maintenance needed as Witchpig suggested, will be back soon.
15:36hrs I have a feeleing we were very lucky to find the cache, as the hints had us looking in the right area but the cache was not where we expected. Maintenance trip may be needed. Email sent to owner explaining.
I attempted this one yesterday in daylight and thought I had sussed out how it was hidden. I tried to locate it without success and, due to the number of people coming and going at the time, determined to come back later the next day. I did this with my torch, but after many attempts, was still unable to locate it.
From the logs I saw that my friends, Liz and Bruce, had done it a few weeks before, so I made a quck call for help. I was correct in the hiding method, I just had checked the exact spot - this Liz pointed me to. Thanks for a nicely hidden cache.

What a nice hide. Glad we had the extra clues though. On our way to QLD after the Tamworth Festival. Thanks SL
At least we were already wet from the rain so a bit more water didn't matter. Very tricky hide. People were going about there business and no one stopped to ask us what we were doing. We must have rocks in our heads to do some of these caches! The log sheet is a little wet as the outer container lid is cracked. Thanks Roamin engineer - well done. Admired the gardens and lovely buildings.
On the way to Qld again, I just had to pop in here again.
Went fishing, my long arm found it.
Then as I was signing the log, A MASSIVE thunderstorm hit - I reckon I would have been drier in the pond than I was out of it. I got soaked all over.
Replaced cache, very clever idea, I like it.

All you folk who haven't got it yet - the listing has been edited with some new info...
Ah, so it could be on the island eh????
Got there, walked all around but didn't think of that. Was also a bit concerned about it being on private property, or sort of private.

I couldn't find it either. There were a few people around who ignored me wandering around searching high and low.
Thought i'd have a crack at this one while noone was around, early Sunday morning. Got to the 'island' without getting feet wet, but no luck. Would have spent more time on 'foreshore' but some muggles appeared so I had to admit defeat.
