Description
Well as I am an Aussie I thought it was about time I had a fair dinkum Aussie cache
This cache also ticks another box on my list of type and location of cache hides, as it is very close to the thing that rhymes with the title. These cache hides are quite popular but this is my first near one of these. I found the spot when I was looking for a temporary hiding spot for Redtags entry in the mobile cache race and I thought it might be a good spot for a more permanent cache. It might look like a simple drive by but I think at times, it will be a high muggle area - so please rehide the cache carefully and check it at eye level.

Logs
Reading previous logs it seems this cache is missing. To stop cachers searching for it, we'll archive it. If the CO can confirm it's location, the cache can be reinstated.
This is done to help ensure cachers have an enjoyable experience while caching and to keep the list of caches up to date....

Had fish the chips for lunch at the boathouse cafe on the opposite side of the river - so busy there today but GZ was muggle free and with such a good hint it was a quick and easy find.

Found with aid of the handy hint. Fair dinkum & dinky di, cobber mate. Though, stone the crows we did feel like a couple of galahs standing there doing our stuff. Move along now, nothing to see here. Mind your own beeswax.
Found on the way back home after a work trip. Nearly missed it, wasn't in the most obvious hole.
We had stopped at the riverside park after a BBQ at Franklin and noted this was just over the bridge. Found quickly. Only 2y'stassies in the current logbook. TFTC

Found a site that may have contained the cache. However no cache was present, may have been taken.
We arrived at this location in the mid afternoon and very quickly found evidence of the cache - a damaged container and a saturated logbook. Having a spare cache with us, we replaced the damaged cache with a new container, logbook and pencil. It was lovely down by the river - clear blue skies, warm day and a perfectly calm river made for an idyllic setting. TFTC dancesports.
Guess what? No market today, coz Focus on Franklin was on. Cache was sitting exposed (naughty cache) so we logged it and returned it. TFTC
Thanks for replacing, first to sign in new log. Easy find while caching in the area with Tassie Trekkers.

intended to check and replace the cache today but the market is on. will try again during the week
Found a page from the log book....but nothing else
Was beautiful by the river none the less.

A little trip to collect some Huonville caches.
I parked quite close and followed the GPSr.
The coords were spot on - I needn't have looked at the hint (which was very precise, too).
Thanks!

Found quickly as cache easily seeen if you looked in the right spot. Tried to cover a little better on replacement. TFTC
Our first find for the day and an easy one at that. After wasting most of the previous hour for a DNF on another one it was good to finally find one to start off the day. Thanks.
Neat little stash point, had feast of blackberries as a bonus.
We are now unfortunately unable to finish the Tasmanian TARGA event today as we left our 1970 canary yellow Ford Mustang behind in exchange for a pen. Vasco and his Duck

I could say in company with gerrynewgirl, but that would be a stretch, as she was still languising in the geomobile while ( I ) easily found the cache. Nice little hide. TFTC TN and left a weroamin token.

Easy find on the way to a few other caches in the drizzling rain. Didn't know that this cache was here until today - took a Kimmidoll keyring which will be remade into a TB. TFTC.
Grabbed this one with 3daygrowth on our way home after a great afternoon caching together down Dover way.
Thanks for the cache Dancesports

Perhaps I should have waited for Tuesday to log this one on Australia Day, however today was the day I was here. Found quickly; coordinates totally spot on.
Thank you for the cache.
Thank you for the cache.
Caching trip down the Huon today so thought we better get this much as we had to drive past it. Also gave us a chance to put the number platr back on the car properly. Thanks for the cache
First find on the way down the Huon. I thought that the Cool Store road was in Ranelagh, but fortunately I was taking more notice of TomTom than my memory so we arrived there quickly.
Found the cache easily.
TNLN, thanks Dancesports

Quick find on my way down south. Seem to be a lot of bridge caches these days - not really sure of the appeal myself, but it was a nice quick find. Thanks.
We were hoping we'd be FTF on this one, but OldSaint beat us to it 
Nice easy find, with no muggles about. A Christmas cache 5 years in a row and counting 
TNLN Thanks DanceSports!
