Sadly, time has run out for the Willi Watch Cache ( http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.asp?ID=5202 ).
Seems some people got a bit nervous because part of it was on SA Water land. Personally, who cares
It was removed by a fellow Geocacher and is now back in my position - we'll not quite.
It has now been replanted as the Hi 5 Cache. see: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.asp?ID=14539
BTW, for those of you who couldn't work out the clues....
Smell the ladies favourite herb,
just a few metres from the curb.
You can take a picture but leave the vial,
just enter the coordinates on your dial.
We've lost our time in the deep,
first to find gets to keep.
The Ladies favourite herb is .... Lavender. DOH!
Take a picture but leave the Vial... The coords to the second cache were in a little 35mm film canister - DOH!
And yes, the second cache was buried and contained the watch.

Found by Liz and Bruce. Found the first part easily this time (our second attempt). Was welcomed by the Guardian and by the Lord and Lady of the manor. Went on to find the second part of this multi-cache. Took nothing, left toy car. Returning to enjoy refreshments (very welcome on such a hot and humid day) and some delicious chocolate chip muffins . Thank you very much we enjoyed the timely break and chat.
Not found by Karl and Sharyn. Are the coordinates right for this. Spent a lot of time following the arrows which bounced around all over the place. Gave up and went to watch Tour Down Under King of the Mountain at Checkers Hill Road.
Our first one! Had a nice chat with the Lady Of The House after the Guardian alerted her to our presence ... probably just as well, made finding the first cache easier. Great introduction to the sport.
Nothing taken, nothing left.

Even with the help of Greg Claire and Aimee we couldn't find this one. Our noses told us we were in the right area but we could not find the cache. As we had not decrypted the hints in advance we did it sitting on the pavement only then to find that the Guardian of the Cache was elsewhere. We will try again on another day.
Found the first cache after a little help interpreting the cryptic clue from the Lady of the House. Found the second all on our own. Keep a check on the time - the watch appears slightly fast. Kay and Ian
It took just a brief instant of time to meet the Guardian of the Cache, and a little longer to find the first cache. Then off to check the time.
I swapped something for the discount voucher and then back for a cup of tea with the Guardians. Great little run, pleasant cuppa & chat. Thanks all.

Found by Ray and Maya (Nomads) on Thursday the 23rd of August 2001 at 1:55PM. A novel and most enjoyable cache. We found the first part of the hunt using the cryptic clue. The GPS had other ideas at this location. We had a warm welcome by the owners of the house nearby and a short chat before continuing with our search. For the second stage, the GPS was more co-operative and led us accurately to the cache. We elected to leave the $12,500 Rolex (still keeping time) and took the key ring, leaving a box of coloured chalk in its place. The cache was in good order. We returned and enjoyed a cuppa and an extended chat with the owners of the house nearby before continuing to our next destination. Thanks to all, Ray and Maya.
Found by Jeremy, Phil, Mic and Mel. Found the Watch just in time, but left if for someones future find. The cache #1 is not actually in their property but we had a nice chat and cuppa with the owners of the house near by.
