Woke up to an SMS this morning after an overnight request for assistance from a dear friend.

Got to put my name in the log book but alas your cache is no more. Found the logbook lying out in the open at GZ and nothing else.

I can post it to you if you email me your address otherwise I will pass it to Asto to put in the archives.

(written on the road see it was archived when I logged)

Made a start but the second way point is missing.
There is nothing at the end of the line.

I have chosen to archive this cache as I no longer live in Tumby bay, I had planned to get back there from time to time to do maintenance on my caches but sadly are unable to do so.Thanks to everyone who visited over the years... cheers B*ds.

The second stage of this appears to be missing found the purple cord where it should be but nothing there. Even got Muffy and Co to traffic watch while I went up top to check the bushes.

I guess my friend will have to change this to a DNF. Bruce and Liz's log was the last in the book. Not sure how the frog missed it. The big white lime stone rocks gave it away in a big way.

Now for a rest on that chair. Clear skies from TeamAstro. [^]

Pretty sure that this cache has gone missing. I found GZ and looked for the cache. Phoned a friend, the last finder, who confirmed the co-ords and confirmed the hiding location. The second last log entry four months ago indicated that a muggle knew of the cache. After visiting for the location for the third time I decided to put out a replacment cache. I am prepared to change my log to a DNF if the actual cache is discovered.

My god those seats are cold. Brings back memories of a very rainy night at Football Park. PAFC v RFC. 4 goals to 2 goals. Power win. Freddo wins a $50 foodland voucher.

Had to laugh at this one as we actually walked to WP2 from the caravan park this morning on a stroll to see how Tumby has changed since we were there every year during the 80's. Had to dodge a bee at WP2. Left a car and a klem bear and took keyring.

Our 700th Cache.

We know the chairs well as we bought a couple for Nicks school Rostrevor College, so headed straight to it. The Showdown is on as I'm logging this find.

Go Crows

Thank you B*DS for an enjoyable cache.

Cheers from Barra 2 & 4

Signed the log.

Thanks for a great cache

A well constructed multi-cache. Accurate clues that still required a bit of thinking by H9 and C6, who managed to nut this one out with very little imput by me or the wife. Interesting locations and history in the making.

We cheated a little on this one, as there were a few people about for the first stage, so we used the clue for that. But after that it was all up to us. Found it eventually and even met the owner in the process. Nice to meet you and I guess we'll see you around the place again sometime.

The girls went caching while the boys went bowling, we think we had more fun! Our first multicache with a few muggles to contend with. Finally left a dog finger puppet and took a dinosaur. Thanks for a heap of fun.

Our first find,had a great time understanding our gps and how it works for us.

I guess I shouldn’t have been so surprised where stage 1 was – after all where are dates of birth displayed? Red Face I got the right chair OK – the problem I had was looking in the right direction!
At stage 2 I wasn’t sure where to park and suspect I did so in the wrong spot – glad this one was a quick find.
The main problem in stage 3 for a non-local was navigating to GZ. The find itself was a bit too easy. I suspect it may have been found by a muggle as the covering rocks had been moved, though the cache seemed untouched. When I re-hid it I put it “around the corner†a bit more out of sight. Another unexpected hazard was the galah flock perched directly above me – and lots of evidence underfoot of what they might send down to land on me! Surprised
Thanks B*DS.

This was my fist multi cache. I didnt read the previous logs and went to the wrong chair. It was nice easy cache

Easily found as the container was sitting out in the open. Swapped a kangaroo for a dinosaur and hid the container.
Thanks for the cache B*DS.

This was a really neat little multi. I actually did it last night after running into the big B*D'S down the street stocking up on goodies for a shed party watching the crows. ( I told you they were off to a good start)They told me the cache was on line so I raced back to school, got the coordinates, and did the whole thing in about 30 minutes.Even allowing for local knowledge, which helped a bit, (Although I did head for the cricket oval rather than the other council property across the road) this is a very compact and well designed multi. Nothing too challenging, just interesting. I agree it should be easily completed within the time suggested, or less for experienced cachers. As FTF I took a nice calculator, and left a couple of dinosaurs. Really enjoyed this, and it was my first of three virgins on the trot. Again, a little piece of history(well two if you count the seats from Aami stadium) of which I was not aware, despite living in the area for yonks. Thanks very much for the cache B*D'S It was well worth the wait. I think today's effort finally gets me to the 100 mark. Now i can relax and enjoy the hunt.

Well part one had me stumped for a bit as i got lazy and left the gpsr in the car once i parked because i could see the seats. Turns out the set i saw wasn't the correct ones even though it had the right number, anyway after i looked around some i was off and found the rest very easily .

Took note pad (no not the logbook)
Left keyring.
