Now this one took a bit of finding, talk about that tricky manouver!
Did'nt swap, but logged it in the book.
The lid on this cache is BADLY cracked and the cache is now home to a lot of ants eating candy in the cache. This cache is going to no longer be waterproof and will need to be fixed.

Found by Mary & David at 1900. Getting a bit late in the day. With cricket season now in full swing, the oval seems to have had some tidying up. There were even a few boys practising in the nets. Mary was standing peacefully near GZ when she was attacked by bullants - what a commotion! Four bites, but our first-aid kit came to the rescue. Took quite a while on this one, finally aided by a 2 Dogs hint to refine the search area. Found the cache in an area not searched thoroughly enough first time - must have missed it by only a few cm. TNLN. Thanks again to the 2 Dogs
A quick find on the way to Lord of the Rings. What an amazing amount of rubbish in the area, the cause of which was revealed when I returned via the rubbish tip.
Nice hiding place, found it in record time!

A nice area and a bountiful cache... Played frisbee on the cricket ground with some of the trash I removed... Good one... Thanks 2 Dogs...
Looked for this one for about 45 min on my way to collect my ring from Fellowship of the Ring.
Lots of great hiding spots down here and must have been in the right area as I also came across the Orange Lid and Metal Thingy but no cache, at GZ found the most likly hiding spot empty. Will give it another go soon.

Co-ords took us straight to spot. After rummaging around for all of 5 minutes the cache was found. Sneaky hiding spot.
Took something for something (I can't remember what).
Great work Snifter.

Found this one in minutes thanks to the accurate coords. I took a bag of rubbish out but you'd never know there was so much.
THanks Doggies.
Took Stamps and Left Memo Magnets.

How close can you be? ...must have walked over this cache many times in the hour and half the last time I visited. Tried a new method this time and had it in less than 5 minutes. Great cache, Snifter: easy to find now I know where you don't hide them!
Removed the sugar candy cane as it was doing an impersonation of silica gel. Took the diodes, incense (to give the Freddos a chance) and the soy milk drink...left an eraser, screwdriver and earphones. Thanks to Snifter

Been a while since its been sighted! Found the orange lid, metal thingo and lots of vinyl LPs, but no cache. I'll watch this one and try again after another hit.
Found this one at 10.15 am this morning the garmin had us running around is cirles until i took it for a straight drive down the middle
Not a bad site....took the snake...left a looney toons stamp set.
#2 for Team Gecko
First for the day
Once the driver listened to the navigator, we got there in no time at all. With the wind around we had to watch our heads. We left some M&M's and took the playdough for the kid.
Very despondent after finding orange plastic lid next to metal record (thought cache was deceased), but idiotic perserverance paid off!!
Took Supradyn (to recharge our batteries), and left expensive jewellery.
Off to do some more caches...
Gratitude to Snifter

Gratitude to SnifterExcellent cache snifter! Took us a while to find but found it eventually. It was something of a record(hehe)! Bushrat.
Nice spot indeed Snifter, very pleasant place.
Even the enviromental scientist half of EcoTeam approved of this area!
How on earth do old car rims and trailer parts get down there though?, the mind boggles
Needed the headphones, and couldn't resist the Dolphin massager, which was just put to good use
Left some munchies.
Our second Snifter cache for the day!

Great spot Snifter. Must have been minutes behind Tangles finding this cache. Your warnings about watching overhead were very appropriate in the 100km/h gusts of the morning. Found it without much trouble and swapped some things as usual (now there is a glass geofishy for someone's fish tank). Didn't have time to get to Bucket, maybe next weekend. G1
Found the cache easily, to us it appeared there was an obvious marker on this one.
1:10pm Found this one without too much difficulty. Nice placement Snifter. I don't think of this area as boring, just, well, quaint. Swapped out a Cockatoo Leadlight thingy for some SuperBass Headphones. On to bucket...

Inspired by success at Bucket we headed off to try our luck at the Arcades.
We reached this cache in Record time and once again enjoyed the delights of Snifters generosity.
A busy week of cacheing has seen the geomonkeys run incredibly low on items. Therefore we didnt excahnge much.
