Shanks' Pony Right Serpentine, Western Australia, Australia

This cache appears to be still sitting at the above co-ords. If any cachers visit the area, maybe stop by and help it on its way again...

After lunch today (at the lookout) and before heading back down the hill I came-a-looking for this cache. I walked around the log once or twice before spotting it in it's hiding place. Once found I duly signed the log and replaced it as found, then headed downhill for another few GC caches. This was my second GA cache for today. Thanks to DisSister for the cache.

Found it after giant ant had latched onto my big toe!!! And left it there for the ants to guard.

Received a message from LZ BUM that they have moved this cache but are unable to register with gca to log it.

Out with GC Gnome Hunter series.
You're looking for a flip-flop thong.

Nice cup of tea with lazarus and his cache collection

Found with Lazarus whilst enjoying a nice cup of tea

Discovered the cache in the hands of Lazarus_68.
About to continue its journey in the West.

In my hands

The thong now has a nice view looking south from Mount Barker Summit. Hidden in a natural hollow under one of the large rocks.

A quick find while we were passing through.

Interesting to see no Minotaur Dragonzone points on this moveable yet. I'm sure there's something that can be done about that.

We'll re-hide this cache soon, probably in a zone that is not currently orange.

Thanks DisSister.

found on a great summers night left in place

I'm away working in SA now and this moveable has cone for a fly with me and is resting by the beach where many like it get lost or left behind. The hint is only there of you get stuck.

Whilst here, anyone know who owns the eclipse tin on the shifting sands sign across the rail from here? I thought it looked like a place you might hide a cache and found one there.

Picked up this cache and left another moveable in the same hiding spot. Cache was covered in bugs and a spider. Ew.

I'm an idiot!!! I didn't realise that this was a moveable cache, so i left it where is was. At the time, I did think that it had a lot of dirt on it, but didn't realise it was a GCA cache, and thus not found often.
On the positive side, the cache is easy to find and is in good condition.
Maybe I'll go back and retrieve it and move it on.

A new rest stop on the Hunter Expressway now has a moving cache hidden a little way from the muggles overlooking the man made pond.

Wow that is a LOT of caches my BB brought home! I would have gone too but some of us had to go to work. Now my house is full of Gnomes, frogs, Bingos and Angels! I’m going to have to do something about this and start hiding them again before they take over our unit once and for all!

Operation: Dawn of War (Clan Phoenix Gnomeland Raid)

Cache Condition: I found the pair! Right was a bit more dirty and needed a good scrub. I also helped re-secure the cache to the thong and gave the log a baggy.

Operation Summary: Leaving Sydney at 4am to reach The Gnomelands by dawn I kicked off the 'The Great Mount Piddington Moveable Challenge' with a raid of freedom to release over 60 moveables from their mountain prison to freedom. 4.5 hours of morning caching saw a good few sack-fulls return with me to Sydney.

The caches have been moved to St Leonards for some TLC and a bath so don’t go looking for them there. They will be released shortly in various locations.

Shank's Pony Right has found a nice hidey hole.

Another Bingo that seem lost in the Wentworth Falls wilderness, this one has been there long enough time to move on. No problems it has now been picked up and will be relocated in a couple days.

Going for a walk in the Cork Plantation I re-visited a hollow stump - seemed a good place for thong to have walked to.

Picked this one up from Tealby - who had a number of these riding in the back of her geowagon - will find a suitable spot soon

This was just a tad on the small side for me, so I've just signed the log and will move along to see if there is a Cinderella out there that it will fit... TFTC.

Moved on where this should be found again pretty quickly.

That's a bit different. Delivery to our door today made it a very easy find, thanks!

Oh well I'm pickin' 'em up and I'm laying 'em down
I believe they're gone ain't nowhere around
I search to the left I look to the right
I wanna leave them but it wouldn't be right

Down and gawn already.

747. Grabbed on a quick early morning saunter - in -4.5!

Dropped off on a cool Canberra morning while walking geodog

grabbed from SDL, got a whole bunch of movables now looking for some likely places to drop them

A few of these transport types around. Fun idea.

Spotted this one (after missing it on our visit to his last hidey hole) while being transported to another local who will re-locate shortly.

Thanks for the continued fun of the moveables.

Passed to a fellow ACT cacher. Albida

With thanks to the Bunny Transport service another pile of moveables that were missed up at Mt Victoria have been found. Thanks

Out with Just a cacher to conduct a federal intervention on the Gnome Gnation.

A quick grab in some beautiful but chilly countryside today.

Thanks for the cache.

With Black Bunny in the mountains, rounding up gnaughty gnomes. It was very windy and consequently fairly cool, but fun!

Rated: for Overall Experience

Left in place, waiting for the next cacher.

Found on a second day forage within the Gnomelands ... fearful of retribution from the Disenchanted Gnomes, taken in hand only for a photo op. Not a foot out of place TFTC

Rated: for Overall Experience

Shank's Pony Right has joined with a group of disenchanted Gnomes in the occupation of this tract of land, the aim being to secede from Australia and create their own independent country.
However with Gnomes in charge this may turn into a dictatorship, it remains to see if emmigration is greater than immigration.

Shank's Pony Right has joined a mass exodus of moveables led by renegade Gnomes, who knows what they plan to do? They are all in hiding for now while hatching their nefarious plans. No point looking for any of them they are nowhere to be found until they are ready to reveal their ultimate goal.

Left in Hazelbrook for a friend to move.

Once we had the correct co-ordinatesit was a quick scramble and a find at Linden Train Station in the Blue Mountains.

Shank's Pony Right has found this nice spot to wait for the next Geocacher to come and collect it.

Shank's Pony Right has made its way to the Clwydd holiday resort for a very short bit of R&R, before moving on.

Moved this one out to Clwydd again . . .

Hope you'll travel well, Right . . .

Another easy find, close to home!

Many thanks to rogerw3 for the transportation.

Shank's Pony Right has taken a train ride up the Blue Mountains, but don't bother looking it has already been picked up.

This neglected Bingo has been here much too long, it is time to go for a trip up the mountains since nobody seem interested in moving it.
Thanks for another new Bingo.

After a long trip down to Sydney Shank's Right has found a new home. Funny, I had a set of caches of the exact same name too! Hope that doesnt confuse anyone Hidden in Spots Im confident have never been used for a moveable or any other cache that Im aware of in a nice patch of urban bushland

It was still there! My last Australian cache... now I have to go home to China for a while to get a new visa so I can live with my Zal. Very sad day even though we had fun at Currumbin and caching. Bye Bye Australia! Zal will move these 2 caches to Sydney

Rated: for Overall Experience

How sad these thongs didnt get more than one move the whole race :'( Not enough GCAr's north of the border Oh well, Zhaoy and I have grabbed both of them and they are coming home with me to Sydney where I am sure they will be much more loved

Lovely spot.

Left Shanks' Pony Right on what used to be one of the best surf breaks on the Gold Coast.

After finding Shanks Pony Left were were heading across to our friend at Ferny Grove, when a tiny voice called out from a pleasant looking park on the way ... "Oy, you have my twin, wanna come and pick me up too? I'm tired of hanging around".

So we pulled in and decided it would be a good time to test the accuracy of our new GPS. Bingo ... Coordinates spot on! As we returned to the car, the thong said it could smell salt air on the duco and see sand stuck in the tyre treads. "Ooh, I think you live near the beach, I'm hanging out to go to the beach, can I come home with you?"

"Sure, little thong, hop in!"

Ready to go!
