Need to get some time and a better solution to this one going walkabouts all the time... hopefully soon...
DNF on this one. Good long look. Read the hint, read the logs. Reckon I was in the right spot - particularly given some of the log details - but no cache.
Maintenance check time maybe?
Can you let me know if I'm wrong please?

After the DNF debacle of 'It Ain't Necessarily So', I thought I'd cheer myself up with an easy find here.
Cue 'Family Feud' loser sound - bah baooow!!
The Morwell Pedigree Pooch show was on nearby, and some of the canines decided to take their muggles for some exercise on the playground equipment. Every time I thought that I had the place to myself, some flea-bitten hound would show up dragging it's owner behind it.
Then some kids showed up to play - how dare they !!!
After 15 minutes of this, I decided to retire and try my luck elsewhere...
I'm going to allow myself the indulgence of not DNF'ing though, 'cos I barely got a chance to start

Had a good, long search for this one in the early morning when there were no muggles about, but came up empty handed. Either it's very well hidden or it's gone.
From the previous logs we were not sure if this cache has been returned or not. We couldn't find it if it has been returned [:(!]
We had been looking in the correct location but the cache had been temporarily removed for maintenance by the owner.
Luckily with the inclement weather we had this fantastic structure to our selves.
Thanks to AussieRAVer for permission to log a find after our fruitless search

Found in company with Chris. Cache was full of water so I didn't log it and Chris took it home to dry it out
Thanks again Chris

#9 of 29 finds in company with acts2youthgroup on our 'East of Melbourne' Thursday adventure. We found this one at 1135. I'm not fond of caches in playgrounds, having been accused of being a pædophile while searching for one in Sydney once. Unaccompanied males are not usually welcome at such facilities. In this case, there was only a grandpa and one child in attendance, so we were able to search in relative comfort. Fortunately, Acts2YG came up with the goods in quick time, and we were able to sign the log and get out of there. I made no exchange. Thanks to AussieRAVer for the cache. Cheers, dak.
Found at 11:30 in company with dak’s Emu Mob. We cracked the hint on this one as we are not to keen on hanging around kids playgrounds, the cache was a nice quick find. Some may have trouble with this one as it is a bit of a squeeze making your way to GZ. Thanks AussieRaver for the cache and showing us the playground.
Its back... I will keep an eye on it and may even change the location... This time it is a little more difficult to blow away!
Found by Mary & David at 1130. Searched the likely spots with complete freedom, as there was nobody else about on this cold damp morning. Came up empty, then found the soggy log sheet lying on the ground with no sign of a container nearby. We delivered the signed log sheet to Trunksnsuch for onforwarding to the cache owner, and then enjoyed plenty of coffee and a chat. Our thanks to AussieRAVer once again.
Looks like it has gone missing... Wet log found nearby... I will try to get this back up asap (mid next week at the latest!)
Yaaa finally found this one after several visits and a hint from AussieRAVer.
Thanks for the cache AussieRAVer

A wet and foggy morning makes the structure very slippery, but it does mean no muggles of any size. An easy find, I just thought about where I would hide it.
Thanks, Robmc.
Thanks, Robmc.
We were rather thankful for the clue here as hiding places abound and also that we were here on a wet cold foggy morning which kept all the little muggles away. Otherwise our presense here would have have been severely frowned apon, I'm guessing.
Thanks anyway.
Thanks anyway.
Too many young muggles to be successful on the first visit in mid afternoon but when I got back late afternoon the situation was managable. I was the 2nd entry for the day. Did four caches today all by AussieRAVer. I attempted Power to the People, also by AussieRAVer but by the time I got there the gate was closed, which was unexpected.
Another of my DNFs for today. This one because it was almost dark and I thought poking around with a torch might be a bit conspicuous as muggles were common here....ouch! This park was built with the labour of the townsfolk years ago and I had a look at the slide I helped install and the extra hole drilled in it by mistake. (not mine) Thanks anyway...
Took Crisp Image with me because I knew I would have a problem. He searched where I asked but he didn't find it. I searched on ground & found lid. Further searches found container & log sheet, so I signed the log & put it back. Obviously semi-muggled because lid was off. Thanks AussieRAVer - I'll finish you off when I get back.
Quick find within 2 minutes. Some muggle kids came to check us out and see if we wanted to play tiggy. Well built park that my daughter loves. Thanks AussieRAVer for a good cache.
Found at 1800 with ratbag14 under the cover of darkness. The song that popped into my head after leaving this find was 'Hey Hey were the Monkees'. TNLNSL Thanks
Found at 6pm with wam78, little (taller) sister and dog in tow. I'm a bit too short for this one and have limited use of a healing break in arm so wam78 had to be a bit energetic to retrieve the container. Thanks for the cache.
Members of Morwell State emergency service found this cache while on a GPS training exercise. Thanks for your assistance in training the members of this vital service.
Found it after talking to Ratbag 14 who notified me there was a new one in town. I was just around the corner so off I went. At 1750 hrs on the darker side of day with my trusty torch I found said cache after a short search.
Thanks
