Logs
As there's been no cache to find for months, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.
This cache will be re-enabled in the very near future. Sorry for the delay as Tech and familt probs have prevented me from doing anything with this one but all is almost solved now so within the next couple of weeks it will be back online.
Disabled until I get a chance to fix the problems with the log and may move slightly to try and prevent muggles from moving but will be in the same general area if i do move it.
found very easily probably cause it has been moved. did not sign log as it was too wet and sticky with unknown substance to touch let alone write on.
Found without using GPS because i knew the area and someone else gave me a big hint to find this cache.
Good Luck Everyone!!!!!!
Thanks,
Camstal

As luck would have it, I found this one pretty quickly. Would be impossible when kids are on the play equipment. You certainly put in some effort [^]. TN/LN/SL. Love the name of this one, too. I bet you do cryptic crosswords in your spare time. Counted 19 ships in a line on the horizon. I had another look at nighttime when the lights are at their best. Would be a great place to "park" in the romantic sense [:X][^]. The Lost Bunch's Honeymoon TB visited. Heeey, this is number 800 for me. Congratulations to me - woo hoo !
Muggles when we approached which gave us the time to have a picnic. They disappeared after a short while. Geomum was insisting on a particular location, but I followed GPSr and the find came quickly. Nice hide, Qld_panther, and thanks for the cache!
What a sneaky way to hide a cache Qld_panther!!! Excellent cryptic name and disquise. Cache was safe and sold as a rock. TFTC
felt a bit cheated on this one, wasn't much of a hunt as KT found it in plain veiw with the container lid not attached and the log loose nearby. so not much challenge.
Owner may want to confirm cache is where they intened it to be as we left the cache's container where we found it but put back together. It just looked a bit out of place.

2nd attempt at this one too ...
had a look, then must admit had to "phone a friend"
cryptic clue ... went back and had a closer look [:o)]
well done Panther, very well done [^]
can scratch another DNF ... cheers

Nice spot but didn't have time to hunt properly.Saw 6 carriers waiting to come in. Next time we are in the area will have better hunt.
Lucky for me no one around. What a great little hide. Quite a few bulk carriers out to sea. TFTC. TNLN.
Well hidden but no one around which made searching easier. Lovely area. Thanks Qld_panther
Nice find, great hide. I have seen this ninja technique before...good work. Thanks.
A great hide and great views . We came back at night and counted seventeen heavy weights and the view was even better TFTCSL
easy peasy...found this one in no time...looked quite obvious to me but then maybe im a bit strange...lol. Was a great place to hide it. Took nothing...left nothing. Watched the kiteboards or whatever they are called and had a feed....beautiful spot.
found at 3:45pm along with ausbettsee47 and the geoferal kids who made a good distraction while searching for the cache. Nice easy one to locate.. ausbettsee found it within 2 mins of arriving. Very sneaky hiding, would never had thought of that way.
the last for the day making 7 an easy find for me spied 29 bulk carriers across the horrizon after finding cache
Dropped in to check on cache. It is still safe and sound in its correct position.
another DNF looked around where the GPSr was directing us ... mmm nothing here ?
suspect might not have been looking in the right spot - damn hard to have a serious look with the spot getting a continuos stream of visitors and picnicers
another on the watch list ...

So I had a friend visiting from the USA who brought me a present of a Garmin GPS. Looking around the web for GPS related stuff I found geocaching and decided to look for anything in my backyard. Sure enough, there was this cache just 300m from my house which I set out to find yesterday evening, and tracked down with no problems. Successful virgin attempt.
FTF #2 for today, and 2nd of 3 caches for the hour. Found at 4.30pm. Finally have the Garmin back, replaced under warrenty. Kudos go to Mrs Bundy for this one. Mr Bundy was being too analitical with this one, reading too much into the clues. Mrs Bundy, on the other hand, stood back, took the whole scene into context, and said, Try there. And yes, it was there. Very similar to another well known cache in Brisbane.
Thanks QPanther for the opportunity to up my FTF count, and the cache.
Cheers
Bundy
