The Main Attraction
A tricky urban cache in the throbbing heart of Lane Cove Village
- An extremely small silver container...
- A log-only cache - please don't add anything...
- Write small...
- Don't be seen...
- Come back another time if you think its too risky...
- Replace it precisely as you found it...
- Nothing more to say - Have fun...
Logs
Unfortunately, the Main Attraction is no more... As it was probably discovered by one of the locals any replacement would also disappear, so I won't replace it...
It survived a lot longer than I thought it would... Almost a year... pretty good considering it was fully visible to anyone walking past...

Spotted the cache within a minute, Leek confirmed I had it right by SMS... good thing I could give him a ring...
Didnt have the nerve to go for it in peak traffic hours... I'll have to come back at night, luckily I live close by...
P.s. I second the recommodation on the pizza place.. for take away also try Lane Cove Gourmet pizza...

Got it!
Didn't realise it was placed in this way, I thought it would be way more fragile... if I knew I could have gone for it in daylight...
Took a useless japanese? coin left a useless aussie coin ($.05)
Walk in the GZ a million times but never spotted it before, great cache leek!!

Visited this cache with a load of Muggles tonight... It's still there... Introduced them to the strange concept of geocaching and my new American boss even signed the log book...
Being totally unfamiliar with the secretive processes of urban geocaching, they nearly gave the game away, but I think I managed to replace it without raising the suspicions of anyone in the area... I'll check it again soon...

The cache is still there... I'm surprised it hasn't been found by one of the locals yet... Seven months and counting...
Original log didn't come across from gc.com. Original log reads as follows:-
You're kidding. I can say no more

Seems like 10:30 on a Tuesday morning is no better Swampy. Bumped into Leek & MiniLeek and had a chat for a while.
I shall return.
