On my first attempt there was a security guard at Wembley Park.
Obviously keeping the riff raff out.

Found this one at 09:30 while hanging around waiting for the post-exam pickup. OK, I did have a squiz at the hint 
as I wasn't sure whether or not it was inside the fence. That'll teach me for not reading the cache page until after the find. 
TNLNSL. Thanks quiet1_au.

I had finished an appointment nearby way earlier than expected, so decided a few GCA caches were in order.
after dnfs at the previous 2, I had high hopes for this one. fortunately a quick look around and there it was.

An easy enough find as it was what I was expecting at this location. A game was in progress but there was no-one near GZ and couldn't be near GZ so we have the location to ourselves to do the hunting and the seeking and the finding.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks quiet1_au for both the caches and for participating in the game.

Luckily there was no game on today so no issues with muggles. A fairly quick find once at gz.
Thanks quiet1_au for the caches and for the excuse for a nice Sunday morning walk along the creek.

Found at 1am while chasing some last minute Geosportz points. It would have been great to see Queen perform live here back in '86!! 
Thanks again, quiet1_au, for adding further riches into the Geocaching Australia arena, in this part of town. Looking forward to finding your other caches 
Thanks again, quiet1_au, for adding further riches into the Geocaching Australia arena, in this part of town. Looking forward to finding your other caches The first challenge with this hunt was to find somewhere to park. A large building project nearby meant that parking in nearby streets was difficult but we managed to find a spot as one workman headed off for lunch. As we walked towards GZ the adjacent soccer field was very quiet - no activity here today. It is interesting that this tree had a "prop" - not sure if the pole was installed to help the tree or if the tree grew over the pole. After a short search the cache was in hand. The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks quiet1_au for the cache.
It took us ages to find a place to park, but we made it to the cache. We both hunted around and eventually I found the cache. I don't usually go out for FTF's but it is nice to get one every now and then. Thanks for the cache quiet1_au
Found @ 12:54 with LouiseAnn.
The plan for today was to collect some caches that qualified for geosportz 2016 events.
This was published last night just before I was in the area, but I didn't check my email notifications. I checked my notifications this morning, and for logs, but there were none, so when LouiseAnn arrived, I suggested going to find them. This tied in nicely with a side trip out this way.
We had to do some vehicular acrobatics to get here, because there was a footy game underway at the park which meant that parking was at a premium. So we left the car in a nearby side street and hoofed it here. Once at GZ, LouiseAnn made the find, and we signed in *FTF* position.
