Description
The cache is NOT at the listed co-ordinates, this is a podcache.
Banjo Patterson wrote some wonderful peoms which really evoke Australia for me. This is the first bit of one very famous poem.
The Man from Snowy River
There was movement at the station, for the word had passed around
That the colt from old Regret had got away,
And had joined the wild bush horses — he was worth a thousand pound,
So all the cracks had gathered to the fray.

Doing a GA cache run with phlphotos and JJCC. Having solved the puzzle soon after release, it wasn't until today an opportunity presented itself to visit GZ and sign the log.

Had a listen to the recording thought I had an idea as to what was required until a couple of strange numbers came up then had to change my thoughts soon had another idea and had coordinates that the checker agreed with. Today caught up with teamMerlin & Splitty Miller JJCC to come and collect the cache. Parked near the bus stop & walked down it was a nice walk down to the spot that matched the hint saw the hiding spot when we got there & soon had the cache in our hands.
We all signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for the podcache blossom*
Returned back to the cars and on to the next stop

Baktrak beat me too this one. Work is keeping me busy towards the end of the summer games but Im trying to still grab a couple of point ticking over for 
. Solved this one quickly as it resembles one of my own puzzles but couldn't get out to GZ until today. A nice little walk but I wouldn't recommend it in thongs 
Will need to come back for the night cache soon too nearby! Cheers for another one Blossom, a rare Pod-Cache too!

Well I did make one mistake in the recording but you ought to be able to work it out easily despite that!
The fourth cache on this hot day. At least this one is in a shady spot. I waited for the brush turkeys to complete their scratching and vacate the zone before diving in. Spotted the cover soon enough and signed as *FTF*. A favourite poem that I first encountered in that ABC-issued monthly magazine we all received in Primary School back then. Thanks blossom*.
