As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, 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/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Offline until we can have a look and replace.
 
06-Aug-11
After always rushing past on Portrush road, we were finally in the area casually caching and thought we would have a look here. Saw a couple of obvious hiding place (one more so than the other) but both empty. After seeing the multitude of other DNFs on this, we didn't put anymore effort into it.

Sad ... no good for us. three people looking, no joy.
 
24-Apr-11
It could be us, but we only found one area that fit in well with hiding a cache (and just tall enough for Mum Pirate to reach)... but with terrian of 1 (for wheelchair access), we broadened our search with no luck.
 
24-Apr-11
On a quiet Easter Sunday, we found GZ with no muggles around at all. Even after a good search, there was only one really good caching spot and it was empty. Sad

Thanks for bringing us here anyway.
 
16-Apr-11
Tried this back in March as well as today and still came up with nothing.
 
16-Apr-11
Looked high and low for this one while dodging muggles nearby...
But nothing could be found...
Will try again next time. TFTC

Holey cache batman!
 
22-Jan-11
Spotted obvious hiding spot straight away but had to wait for the swimmer muggles to vacate before and after grabbing the cache. TFTF
 
19-Jan-11
The first time I worked out where the cache was but was under supervision of a muggle who wasn't going to budge for a significant time. This morning there were muggles but they were too busy concentrating on what they were doing, so at an opportune moment.... TFTC.

Quick find, cleverly hidden in a location normally swarming with schoolkids
 
23-Apr-10
After a quick look around I went back to the car and read some of the previous logs to point me in the right direction.
My hand could not fit into the hole even if there was a spider in there, so a stick was used to coach the cache out of it hiding spot.

Quick find while down the street picking up some girly magazines for the sick one [xx(]

In America we have spiders like Redbacks called Black Widows. They are a bit bigger and really cool looking with a bright red hourglass shaped marking on their large jet black abdomen. Didn't see either today at the cache site. But I did reach and grab without much inspection. Maybe I got lucky not to get bit by anything. But it was a pretty easy find.

Lovely area. Hide bit too high for munchkins so used a stool.
Was not going to slip the hand in with other logs referring to red backs.
None seen today but swim school was at change over.
Log book needs replacing. TFTC

Thankfully no redback today... I hope. Easy find. Great hiding place.

Found with linFox and rubai on our quick trip to Adelaide.

Nice little micropark, getting used to them now, they jump out from nowhere when you round a corner! Found the cache without any troubles. no critters today, and no one really around ,we got here just after everyone had gone home for the day.

Thanks, Jezzza Xtreme.

Thanks Anja for the cache.

A quick find to Macca as I stood guard and watched..
Thanks

Swampy and myself had visited previously but 2 little old ladies sat right near GZ scared us off. Big brave men that we are.
Today was different and the cache was found and signed quite easily.
I will admit to a hint from the owner at the pub dinner though.

Great find with no site of muggles. Didn't think it would in that spot. Avoided checking the hole for quite some time before giving up.

A quick find with no-one around on Sunday at lunchtime. Didn't know this little park was there. When Mrs S was a girl you could drive straight through to the swimming pool. We used to come down here for swimming pool carnivals.
thanks Anja

A nice easy cache when noone is around at 6.45am.
No. 99 in the rush to beat 'oldfrankos' to the Ton.
Looks like this morning might be the time to crack 100 finds.

Riding down the street, we turned left into what appeared to be private property, so we turned around and headed off to the next cache. While waiting for traffic, I saw members of the public wandering through what I thought was the private area, so we did a U turn, and parked. It would have to be the easiest find today. It would have been a shame to miss out on the smiley.

Find number 19 at 1610 hrs.
