Sorry I’ve held onto this for so long. It’s landed, refuelled, and ready for take off again
A review of this moveable shows the cache may have been collected from its currently listed co-ords, however it has not been relocated. The previous finder was contacted regarding the cache however it has not been re-located. As a result, we are archiving the cache to stop cachers looking for a cache that is obviously not at the listed co-ords. This is also done to keep the Geocaching Australia database clean and up to date,
If the cache owner can confirm that the cache has be relocated, they can post an unarchive log and the cache will be back in the game.
If the cache owner can confirm that the cache has be relocated, they can post an unarchive log and the cache will be back in the game.
Reading previous logs, this moveable may still be in location OR may have been found, removed and not relocated yet. We know moveables can sometimes be forgotten / missed / left in the bottom of a caching bag, so a check has been undertaken on this one.
An update will be posted within 28 days….

Hi, just letting you know I still have your moveable, I was just letting the dinos have their turn here in SA, will have this back out as soon as possible for you.
Grabbed this flying ninja turtle up at the beach today, he was hiding with a few other GCA friends, so I have grabbed him and will move him on again soon.

In Adelaide attending Uni open days with my daughter I bought some moveables across from Tasmania. Luckily I had some time to put them out along the beach in Adelaide. This one is hiding close to another one I put out. This little fellow is in hiding with two other mates. So you don’t disturb the area I will give you very clear instructions on where this moveable is hiding, near the Discovery Trail sign there is a medium sized white rock which has a creeper at the back of the rock. This is where the moveable is hiding at the back of the white rock
Found this moveable hiding with some mates behind a rock. I moved a rock or two and pulled out four moveables which I collected up and put into a reusable plastic bag and will take North with me. I have had a successful day with moveables and found everything I came to find which is not usual for me! Thanks for the moveables!

Found on the table at the Franklin event.
A small event with just a few cachers there.
Again gooseandegg and the Rat doing the cooking thing and feeding us, and also the deserts supplied by everyone.
An enjoyable time had and a few caches to log.
Thanks for the cache and the event!

Found at a GC event where we all got to meet a Yankie, we all had some nice burgers and fries so he must have felt at home.
Spotted this moveable along with a few others as the Goose dropped them off, I will move them on when I'm next out caching which will be Saturday I think.

dropped off at the "Come Meet The Yankee" event
9 months ago this little plane was partying with my retired gnome. I came home from work today to find another party going on. I'm going to have to speak to the COs of all these party goers. Neville will be receiving a reprimand in the morning!
Thanks Gwawr for another find on this cache, I will move it along soon

After being rescued from a guard rail in Glen Huon, I Love to Fly has arrived at Neville's House for a bit of R and R. Neville the retired gnome is known to be a bit of a party animal so not sure how much peace and quiet there will be.
We headed out today for an afternoon of caching on the Plenty Link Road from New Norfolk to Huonville and ended up near Glen Huon as we headed back home, a round trip of over 200 kms, finding 14 caches and 8 moveables and I love to fly was one we rescued from a guard rail, luckily as we now realise we missed a couple. Will move on soon. TFTM

Hi Gwawr
This jet had been sitting in this spot for some time so I thought a move was in order
Found this one and two others hidden in a black stump - poor little movers
Sainted at 1412 hours
Rode the bike in for this collection, fun; must do it more often
Will get him back out ASAP

Periodically the Geocaching Australia review team checks moveable caches that haven’t been found or moved in over 90 days.
This moveable fits that brief, however reading previous logs it seems to still be at the posted co-ords and is just sitting there waiting for the next finder to give it a go.
So, if you’re in area why not stop by and help it on its way.

Found by Mr T and Mr T jr while MTBing around Peter Morrell Reserve for a couple of hours. Left in place. TFTC
Back out again and ready to be found .
After collecting a heap of moveables in the Northwest a few weeks ago this has been the first chance I have had to drop them off anywhere interesting.
Today myself and Goose of GooseandEgg were walking round Peter Murrell reserve cleaning up some Gc caches we had failed to find yet and along the way we kept our eyes out for good locations to hide these moveables.
I have done my best to spread them out a little bit so if you want to collect more than a couple it could take a few hours, we got here about 11 and left about 3.
It was a nice spring day with us both enjoying the day no end.

Myself and Goose of GooseandEgg have had a big weekend, starting out before 6am on Saturday we have covered some miles, heading North from Hobart we called at a couple of Southern caches near Melton Mowbray before making our way past Mole Creek to Flumming Hell and then on to Devonport and Ulverstone collecting many GC and GCA caches as we went.
Sunday morning was started with a FTF on a reverse cache and then a great little gadget cache as we headed West.
GooseandEgg dropped off this moveable and now i'm picking it up so I can move it on in the next week.
Later in the day we went to a CITO event and cleaned up the area and then cleaned up some caches, after a few stops along the way we made it back to Hobart by about 6pm, not a bad weekend at all
This movable will be back out soon.

I arrived home from work to find Neville (my old gnome) having a party in the front garden with a bunch of other movables. Neville gets bored on his retirement so I can't blame him for having the occasional get together but it was time for the 'riffraff' to move on so I made sure they went a good distance so they would not be back in a hurry. Enjoy the Northwest coast you mad partygoer, enjoy playing bridge.
Found loitering around a dirty old gnome quite close to home. I was surprised to interrupt such a big gathering. The retired gnome is staying put but the rest of the party goers are being moved along swiftly. So glad they didn't leave a mess. Thanks for the movable.

A lovely spring day to be out and about. We heard a retired gnome was feeling a bit lonely in his garden bed so have dropped by for a visit with quite a few friends. Bring on the party!
While finding the nearby GC cache with OldSaint on a glorious spring day, I thought I had better bring this moveable back with me to civilisation! Not much of a party to be had here today at the stump. There were plenty of mates, but no internet and a kick out time of 4.00 pm. Plus the thermal pool was only 24 degrees but warmer here than sitting in the snow on the nearby hills. Hitching a ride to whitewebbs house before moving on. TFTM

Hi Gwawr
Left home, Huonville, this morning in the dark; travelled as far as Ulverstone and returned in the dark - left at 0530hrs and returned home at 2200hrs. A round trip comprising 772 kilometres including visits to Kindred, Turners Beach, West Ulverstone and Spreyton.
Weather: Wet at Huonville at 0530hrs, raining to Oatlands and then fine weather on the North West Coast for the day until I left and got back to Oatlands where it was humming down. Rained on and off from there to Huonville.
Having found one cache on Don Heads, my plan was to find as many as possible of the TasStats series as possible.
The puzzles had been solved some time ago, but this was virtually the first chance I have had to come North West in a similar period of time. So far in that series, I've found six with just one to find - so on the way to look for it, I thought I might as well try to find some caches along the way. This was the fourth on the way through the beautiful farming land from TasStats 6. So far today, I've found eleven including this one - All GCA; not one GC amongst them yet: 1 Trig, 6 Puzzles, three traditionals and now one moveable.
Attempts to get to the right side of the Bass Highway to get close to TasStats 7 failed; so I settled down; whilst stopped; I took a look for closer caches to be found on the GPS. A moveable nearby; off in search; not there - second time today; Sirius you .....
Phone call to sirius Tas and we make plans to say hello; visit it home; spend time and collect fourteen more moveables of which, this is one. Now you know the story behind my collecting your cache:
My tally for the day jumped from eleven to twenty-five comprising 1 Trig, 6 Puzzles, three traditionals and now fifteen moveables.
I Sainted the cache at 1400hrs.
Might need more than Mobil if it wants to fly!!!
After putting the caches in the car, I took some pics of my mates house. Back in the car myself and continued on the way to look for TasStats 7 again.
TFTC and cheers

All go...now in the hands of Old Saint...cheers ST.
With such cold and inclement weather this past few weeks here in north west Tassie, going any where geocaching for me seemed to be out of the question. A good time to plan the various trips required in order to satisfy the various conflicting elements of the current DZ trophy points system. One trophy requirement is to find 100 moveable caches of which I need to find a further 26. So last night to my surprise, I saw 10 moveable caches had popped up on the radar and all with in a 10 km radius of home. I had thought of going caching last night but it was quite cold and even with a superb torch....power torch from Kleva Range.....with out doubt the best torch I have ever had.....it would be difficult finding all of the 10 moveable caches, so decided to head off early today...Friday morning....plus it was a better fit for some of the other dz trophy requirements..e.g. number of dz caches per day of the week, also for each day of the month plus the winter solstice trophy.Thankfully the weather was reasonably fine this morning, although quite over cast so the hunt was on. As soon as I had put my hat and boots on, Murder(the younger of the two canine family....4 yo) started to get pretty excited as he just loves both bush walking and travelling around in the geo fourby. My eldest canine...Sirius...is now too old(16.5 yo) to leave the comfort of his bed in front of the wood heater...which has an electric blanket of course(which he just loves and is great for his arthritis). Having walked 100's of km's with me geocaching over the years up numerous mountains, bush walking along many trails plus along vast stretches of beaches etc while geocaching, he has certainly earned his rest..an amazing companion who never gave up no matter how hard it was for him...a truly remarkeable effort.Looking at the various cache locations I had planned a clockwise route which would take me from home(Ulverstone) along South Road near the pet abbatoirs, on up to the Dial Range Reserve at Penguin, then back along the old coast road back to Ulverstone. Looking at the 3rd moveable cache on my list....'I love to fly'.... in it's posted location I had a pretty good idea on where it would be as I had found other moveables quite near here in the past. Once at gz...a short amount of searching found the little plane hiding in a large stump..the little blue plane cache was soon in hand and the log signed.The cache and contents are in great condition too.This cache will be set free again in a couple of days time to continue its long journey around the state...will most likely take it further east to enjoy the scenery around Low Head on the eastern side of the Tamar River.A huge thank you to 2y'stassies for giving this cache a ride over on the Spirit of Tasmania so it can begin it's scenic tour of our wonderful state of Tasmania and to Sharnie's Tribe for placing all of the 10 moveable caches so close to home.Let's hope this little plane finds many new great locations on his/her travels around Tassie.Many thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for us all to share and enjoy Gwawr....very much appreciated.Having secured the 3rd of 10 finds on the list it is now off to find the 4th moveable cache...cheers ST

A quick stop at a popular spot on the NW coast led to several finds which was great as caching had been a bit slow lately. TFTC and to 2y'stassies for bringing them within range
After a very short stop I Love to Fly was ready to fly off and see the sights of Tassie
While Mrs y'stassie went to her Monday embroidery group Mr y'stassie took a little trip east to collect a few moveables to meet a few requirements for some of the GCA challenges. As it was a little frosty this morning he headed to Squeaking Point first. The sun was out and there was no sign of ice on this section of road. There was quite a lot of traffic on the road, most heading into Devonport. After finding A Good Walk Spoiled Mr Y'stassie headed off towards the Exeter Highway in the hope of finding this cache. He drove with care as many of the puddles, some of which were quite deep, on the shaded side of the highway still had a thickish cover of ice and there was frost on the vegetation on each side of the road.
Arriving in the vicinity of GZ Mr Y'stassie parked up the road where there was plenty of room to pull off and walked down the road to the rail mentioned in the hint. He quickly located the cache behind its rock guardian. He noticed that his GPS wanted him on the other side of the road. With the blue flyer in hand he made his way back to the car.
Thanks for this nice little cache GWAWR and thanks nutwood for bringing it to the little island. We will move it on soon.

Many apologies to the cache owner and other cachers who may have tried to find this cache recently.
It seems I've entered the longitude wrong on my previous 'moved' log.
The new coordinates are taken from my GPSr track log, but I'll check them in person this weekend.

This traveller is now perched above a cliff, ready for take-off.
A very quick find as I knew exactly where it was going to be. We'll take this moveable back home before deciding where to re-hide it next.
Thanks Gwawr.

Thanks to Lazarus for dropping off this moveable & lots of others.
For the moment I will leave them at the front of my house in case someone is passing by and would like to grab one or more to move on.
