Stopped to drop in a TB after doing the airport walk, definitely where it should be
 
18-Aug-13
Missing in action

Sorry to anyone who had a bug in there.
 
16-Aug-13
With Kiddzinn but no sign of anything at this site. With multiple people not locating this cache perhaps it should be reviewed.
 
26-Jul-13
Looked every where was not there
 
22-Jul-13
Turned over a lot of stones but no luck.
 
22-Jul-13
Had a good look around but as with other recent players could not find. Perhaps this one has travelled on? Thanks.
 
21-Jul-13
I was hoping to leave the Renn-Traktor (race tractor) TB here as it's trying to get to Germany: GC3AQNK, but unfortunately I couldn't find cache ..

Quite a tricky location to search in given all the traffic, but I did my best as stealthily as possible and ended up way dirtier (from moving stones) than someone who's about to get on a plane would want to be, but alas no luck .. Maybe next time?!
 
15-Jul-13
Pretty solid search but no joy.
 
15-Jul-13
Searched and dug for ages to no avail

Interesting collection of flotsam in this cache. Spent the day on my bike and this was last on the list for the day, loitered and tried not to look dodgy. TFTC
 
18-May-13
Had to be careful here. It's not the most sneakily hiden of caches. All good, I'm a pro. Thanks, dropped off jtd's geocoin. If you are going on a flight, this coin is in a race and would be cool to see it return to it's home in Germany! Big Grin

Sorry about this, but the wasp nest above the cache looks dodgy and as it is still small, it could be dealt to without much distress to the wasps.
