Return To Sender The Basin, Victoria, Australia

This cache appears to be MIA.
As the owner hasn't been around since 12th July 2010 we'll archive this to stop it showing up in the cache lists.
If the owner decides to replace the cache, they can active this listing by placing an "unarchived" log against it.

I have been watching this moveable cache for awhile...It was last found since 2008.
Its over 2 years.
Need to archive this one or replace new cache to keep moving.

Saturday morning, and it was a great time to be out and about caching with no care in the world. I had about half a day before I was due over at a friends house so I madly cached in the Kilsyth area today. With a high concentration of caches that I have yet to find here, it was a good 3 hours with 14 caches found. As usual, I would park close by and run into GZ with the backpack on my back. This was cache the only cache I did not find today. I'm pretty sure it's MIA. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Not sure whats happening with this one. I have noticed that it has disappeared from the current location where i put it and has also moved from that location on the google map (my closest caches). But there is no log on the page.

Our first moveable Cache, somehow feels like cache-napping. This was a great new experience. Moved the cache 8.2km to the south (as the crow flys)
New co-ords S37 51.1000 E145 18.548

thanks for the experience.

This is our first Moveable cache. It feels a bit like Cache-napping. But will place this one straight away.

Rated: for Overall Experience

My first moveable cache! Placed at 10.30pm in the pouring rain!

Travelled approx 36.5km

When I parked the car, I spotted this cache attached to its host before I even climbed out! I had to wait almost 10 minutes before the muggle on her phone moved away.

Will move ASAP!

My first ever cache, yay! Found it right away @ 7:25pm with my trusty Garmin 295. Two hours earlier I'd never even heard of geocaching! Moved it to its new home soon afterwards, couldn't help leaving something tiny for the next person. TFTC.

Wave when you find it... I can see the new location from my office. Feel free to give me a call to say hi.

RTS is back in play!

Found after a false start last week... helps to have your GPS with you instead of trying to remember which street off Millers Road had the cache hidden.

This time around it was much easier.

Finding ourselves in the vicinity of this cache we looked in to confirm where it had been hidden. Our thoughts on this present situation are that if the previous finder/relocater hasn't fulfilled their obligation within a set time, say 48 hours, the cache should be automatically made unavailable as advice to future searchers.
When finally repositioned it would then be a simple matter to reactivate it again! The alternative of course would be for the owner to just start it off again with a new container!

'Finally I got this one back to Victoria.
If you intend moving this, remember the move locations are not valid in NSW.
But it has travelled, to Sydney, London, Singapore & Dubai. Approx 25,000 kms....
I know well outside its expectations.

Finally on way back to Victoria.

Team Ladava could not find this one so an email to littlegrub provided an explanation

Have I been away so long, yes I still have this cache.
Yes I logged it as when I got to Sydney it did not fit in. This cache was designed for particular location that are very different up here.
My week in Sydney turned out to be a longer stay but I'll be in Vic for the NSW long weekend and I will fix this up then.
So "Return To Sender" can hope to be on the move again very soon.
Last time I try to be so clever with movable.

Noted this Cache had not moved for some time, so Thought I'd make a big move for it....
I've been caught out though, I picked it up no trouble locating it BUT
thought I'd relocate it to Sydney where I was on way to. Surprise, Surprise surprise, I can't re hide it as up here the objects where it is to be hidden are different to Melbourne, both in design and colour. So What to do. I'm in NSW for a week or so and if I can find the right object it will be placed, otherwise it will have to await return to Melb. But it looks like it will be with me longer than 24hrs. Sorry.

Moved 10.8km west. What a neighbourhood. Very odd.

(Correcting original waypoint which had numbers transposed!)

Found without too much trouble. Looks like it's been here a while.

Moved to new location some 11.5km away.

Picked this one up on a lunchtime visit to Sth Melb. Relocated to S37 44.381 E144 53.916 which was 11.5km away as the crow flies. Enjoyable challenge, thanks Chefs

Found by Pickupfamily Dad at 845hrs, moved 9.4km to near work at about 2030hrs.

Found and moved on 17.647km (approximately)on 13/11/06 (see moved log)

Found on 13/11/06 @ 1205 AEDT. With the prevailing inclement conditions, it was good to have a very quick find, minimising my exposure to the elements. The cache was replaced on13/11/06 @ 1626 AEDT

Cheers Chefs on the run

Was sitting at its current location too long.Mowing man is due & this would have exposed cache from road. I retrieved the Spring Break '02 Barbados Bug and moved it on. New location of this cache is now is S37' 54.908 E145' 03.607 about 16.9km as the crow flies.

Retirved @ 16.17 by Scooters Mob with Next!. Rehidden by Next! in neighbourhood under the same type of object. New Cords are: S37° 55.674 E145 15.037 19.4kms moved as the crow flies!

16:17 Found by Next! & Scooters Mob. Rehidden in Next!'s neighbourhood under the same object.

New Cords are: S37° 55.674 E145 15.037

#kms moved = 20km as the crow flies!

On its journey it picked up a Bug called, "Spring Break '02 Barbados".

Droped buy with a swaggie but it didn't fit. Moved a few KM.

Nearly forgot to log this. Picked it up and moved it about 25k. It traveled closer to about 35 though.

Picked this one up today and took it on a 26.6km car ride to its new resting place. I was hoping it would lead me to the sender but it was getting late and I had to get home. Thanks for the cache Chefs, I hope it is not bringing you a recipe you require tonight.
The location is actually Upwey, not Belgrave Heights.

Parked very, very close to cache and turned on GPS, not needing to zero in I was able to grab the cache and shout Yippee, then run and drive. I had a new location in mind to leave the cache at and by the time I arrived at this new location Not a sole was around. This could be a fun one to do around lunch time for the next finder. Thanks Cooks on the Run. Regards the Coffee Elvis singing coffee grinders.

i will get it right one day just shoot me lol

took it for a short trip only 5.4km a busier location

We have moved this cache to a busy shopping strip and this will increase the challenge for recovery.

Of course you only need to go there once so if you get seen it shouldn't matter.

Visiting after hours will see no problems at all.

Total distance moved is 38.3 km as the cocky flies.

This is our third and final visit to the cache.

Thanks chefs on the run

Bugger!!!

Went to pick this one up this morning on our way back from the Yarra, but had been beaten back to it by Geof on Friday.

Will wait until it's on our route again.

Finaly my first GCA cache loged . Took it on a trip up the hill and it's now near a historic item but also hiden as it should be. I found snales also like these places 19.2 km via road, 10.5 km direct.

Thanks Chefs

Came and saw it yesterday. Well now I'v sorted the log in problem I may move it soon. My first hands on experience with a GCA Cache.

Picked this one up and moved it 17.5km as the crow flies. It is at the start of a road that I have travelled so many times.

Saw this had been placed near home with The Big T, so took off this morning to retrieve both. It seemed a good idea at first to do the same as Team_Diesel, which is to re-hide it with The Big T, however it proved to be more difficult than I thought, as I couldn't find an object exactly the same as the one that I retrieved The Big T from. This meant that the hide was not the best. Anyway this log should be about Return to Sender, which is now 8.85kms north (straight line) from where I picked it up. Thanks Chefs on the Run. This is my quota of three now.

Nearly got caught getting this cache as the user of the hide came along just before we went in for the grab.


Great location with so many choices. Thanks maccamob.


We have relocated this cache 47 km to the east and located it next to another moveable cache The Big T, so the next finder can score two caches for one visit.



TFTC chefs on the run

We have this cache and it will be placed soon.

What a little beauty. Captured on a cool afternoon and moved 12.9km in a southerly direction. Followed the MMM aproach as suggested. Our thanks to Chefs on the Run.

Found by caughtatwork at 4:15
As we were on the way home Gabrielle and I stopped to see if this one was still here. Wheeeeeeee! Yes it was. We snaffled the box and disregarded any onlookers (there were none) we spirited it back to the car.

Hidden by caughtatwork at 5:00
37 45.601
144 45.304
27.1k distance as the crow flies. Seems much longer to drive though.

Thanks chefs on the run. A cool little cache container that is now residing in the western side of town.

Hinty, hinty when you go looking for it now. It's not in the bushes

PS. If you could update the co-ords at GCA it will help future finders as it still appears at the original co-ords.

PPS. I can't read properly. I've hidden it somewhere that's different from the place it should have been hidden. It's almost the same, but redder and bigger and not where you would want to put your letter. Sorry about that. If you know the partic series MMM, you should know what to hide it under next time.

Found by Facitman at 13:45 during his (ir)regular lunchtime walk.


My first GCA cache and it was almost "home delivered"! Only a short walk from my office was required to grab this cache that I've been hoping would move towards the city for sometime.


Waited at GZ for a chance to grab it without attracting the attention of many surrounding Muggles but it is somewhat different when you know that the cache does not need to return to the same hiding spot!


Will hide again shortly!

----

So many places to hide ! Dropped this one off on the way home, close to an important place for e-Facit and s-Facit. 5.1km as the crow flies, 6.1km car travel


Thanks Chefs for my first moveable!

About 15:30 we checked the location where Mr Coffee had left the cache but it had gone.

We did however see the Coffee GeoCruiser go past in the other direction.

I now see the pprass has taken the cache to the inner suburbs again.

Hopefully it will be around long enough to visit more of Partic's MMM locations

As we were passing by this location, we could actually see the cache container protruding, so we picked it up again and decided to move it 36km NW. At the new location you can also see the container quite clearly if youo know what to look for.

While on business last night we stopped by for another grab of this cache. total distance traveled was around 14km. the cache now lies at S38.01.050 x E145.19.409.

Many thanks Chefs on the Run for the cache.

Regards Mr.Coffee and the "Elvis is In" Clan.

Picked this one up on my way to work at 8.00am and placed in its new home at 8.22.
A distance of 12.1K as the crow flies or 15.9 by road.
The New Co ords are
S38.05.079
E145 28.339
Thanks again chefs for the cache and Muzza for placing it so close to home

Picked up today at 12:35 and dropped off at around 18:15 back in the Berwick area. Total distance is 21.7 km.s as the crow flies.

Thanks again.

We had heard about these type of caches and were delighted when one turned up "near by". Grabbed it and placed it near our home. The object that we placed it in is slightly shorter than usual, but still the same shape and colour. It travelled 19.6kms NW.
Thanks Chefs for setting this up.
ps - for the next person who retrieves this cache, have a look at the red object 20 metres further south and note the dent in the pole on the road side. About 10 years ago there was a bomb scare where a passer by found a "package" taped to the pole. The police came out with the bomb squad and they shot it!!

Going along the road we noticed a cache symbol on the GPS and decided to stop off and grab the cache. Cache now at 38.01.332 x 145.19.226, which is a bit closer to Home for us. Total distance 36kms line of sight. Many thanks Chefs.

I visited this morning for a reconnoitre, but there were too many people around. After a great day's caching, I popped out after dark, parked the car to block my activities, then grabbed the cache and moved it on to Brighton, a distance of 4.36 Crok's (crow km.s - as the crow flies).

We picked this one up last night after Cracker Girl deposited it close to home. We rehid it at 10-40 today but have only just got back to our computer to log it.
As Muzza says we travelled 40.5 Crowkilometres but clocked up 52.5 on the speedo.
Thanks Chefs on the Run.
The new co-ords are
S37.51.497 E144.59.534

As Cracker Girl was so kind as to place this just around the corner we have grabbed it and will move it on.

Cracker Girl S38.03.060 E145.20.827
Found at 9:37 approx on a quick trip out and deposited it near home at 12:45. A distance of 2.86K as the crow flies. I attempted to log it before I went to work but could not get my name to come up. Tried again tonight with the same problem so I have just typed in the info.
Thanke Chefs on the Run

Now in a new estate in a very new location.
