Great placement but the eagle eyed Ro got her hand on this one immediately. (Luck, or years of experience?) There was a family of pigs who had made there home there so perhaps they enjoy chewing on the rust . Had to take the cache back to the car to get the top off - too tight to remove by hand on the very rusty body. Log is full.
Excellent camo - such a simple concept, yet so ingenious. Log book was quite wet.

Our first find this evening. Really great hide. A trifle difficult getting the cache open as it has rusted up a bit. TFTC.
Initially had us stumped so went on to the next in the reserve. Unable to find that one too. On walking back past this again had a last look & located it at the spot I thought it was at. Very well done on the hide - e - hole. I thought to self - it's probably in somewhere like here, & there it was.
Wasn't hard to find after reading the right details in iPlunder. Nice camo. Log book may need some maintenance. TFTC
Hahahaha...... Starting to be able to read your hints now quite well. Great cache mate. Very cool. Cheers bud
Another nice hide from Glynn. Bugs seemed to like it too so take care extracting the log if you don't like the creepy crawlies!

Second time lucky. It must have been because I searched everywhere that it wasnt last time and I only had to come back and find it today. Thanks.
Well we went after this one with mixed emotions - not 100% expecting to find it. Searched a bit, keeping that clue in mind, when I kicked something suspicious - the cache! A unexpected (but very welcome!) find - how long had it been in the wrong place? Replaced where I expected it to go, and made sure it wouldn't become dislodged again. TNLNSL

Oh yes, THERE'S the cache! Kayaknkiwi and I had to put this one to rest, as we'd had our hands all OVER those trees a time or two previous. Aha, no worries this time! TFTC.
Oh, YES, got that cache. Finally. This time walked right up to it...funny thing was that on our previous adventure spoke to Bookwormmum who was with me at the time, that this would be a good place. Then today, helloooo cache. Thanks G. Thanks for the adventure on this one. TFTC!.
Great hide ... the cache is wet, even the rubber top hasn't worked to keep it dry, can not sign it.
Oh dear, looks like I'm in the minority, but I couldn't find it. Kayaknkiwi and I both spent quite some time looking - got some hints from a friend, looking again. Not our day with this one today.....
Well yip I would have to say this one definitely had us stumped not once but twice. Will have to make another trip, second time today was getting dark. The adventure to continue...
Clever hide. Ground was a bit wet on the approach and clearly the groundsman's tractor had had difficulty judging by the tracks left in the grass slope. TFTC
Great hide. Know I have some idea what to look for i will go back and look for one of glun's I could not find. It certainly is a micro log

A very clever camo! Nicely disguised! The placement couldn't be better! We really enjoy caches like these. Great effort. Log is looking quite worn though, so had to carefuly unfold, sign and place it back in it's home. TFTC.
WAS RAPT TO FIND THIS ONE-FANTASTIC CAMO-UNFORTUNATELY THE LOG PAPER HAD DISAPPEARED SO WE COULDN'T LOG IT.(MAYBE I NEED GLASSES??)TFTC
Once again a nice piece of camo from Glyn. Spotted it pretty quickly though.

We must be getting used to Glyn's tricks. Mum had her hands on this one pretty quickly. A surprising strip of park I'd never noticed despite driving past here many times.

Quick find once GPSr settled down (knew I carried tweezers for a reason). Note: Do not park facing up hill at parking co-ords, between 4 & 6 pm, you will be towed. Parked oposite and chatted with parking wardens on way in, and out. TFTC
Nice little grassy area amongst industrial buildings!
And yummy burger king nearby

Took longer to get the log out and back in again than it took to find it. Must be getting to be a super sleuth. Neat park. Wonder if the people who work around here know about it. Be a lovely place to sit and have lunch. SL. TFTC.
found with yo-mum, before i had my own handle. thanks for playing a part in getting me into caching =)
found with cents-less. AWESOME CAMO JOB!! was using the cache to dig for a few minutes before i realised =) tftc!
What a great cache but we were lucky and took little time in locating it. Took our son on this one and he now knows that we haven't actually gone mad and that there are "hidden things" close to home. Great family outing on Christmas Day. T4TC.
Found this one today on lunch break. Well hidden

Nice one Glyn! We must be getting used to your style as it was an easy find today! TFTC
An opportunity arose for a quick visit to this hitherto undiscovered area and a succesful and straight forward find was made on this clever cache. Cache rehidden as found.
TNLN and SL (first in new log book).
TFTC - found with team cachers Sweet P and Sav Blanc Woman.
The Turtle strikes again!

4.25pm. Cleaver hide. The log needs replacing as it's been a little wet as is very fragile.

Very cool cache, the log is full now, falling apart, damp too. Thanks for the cache. Wendy

1.45pm. Thought I needed a breath of fresh air between the showers. Oh Yes This Cache! The gap between showers was not great and I anticipated getting wet. But no! The hiding place fell quickly, but it is clever and up to Glyn's usual standard.
TFTC.
TNLNSL - the log is getting damp and flimsy and full!!

Came out with two my grandchildren today. This is one I found as I was the only who was used to Glyn's camo jobs. Loved the camo but the kids said that was a sneaky cache.
Cheers for the cache.

2nd Glyn cache found today. Found cache in seconds. I’m getting use to Glyn’s camouflage techniques.
Careful inspection showed something amiss. A very clever cache.

Thanks for the cache!

Got it within seconds, but that was only luck!
Logbook is a bit tatty but still usable. Care needs to be taken when refolding and reinserting into the container.
Very clever idea.
We enjoyed this one.

Nice. Did a search of the area . . night caching . . . went on to another cache and then came back. Got it! Not so good as those who can spot it from afar, but was pleased with a clever and well thought out design. Thanks for that.
Evicted a tenant or two.
Who woulda thought there'd be room for them and the log!
Log is in tatters, but still usable. Had no trouble rerolling it, but people need to take care to get it fully & firmly back INSIDE the cache to keep moisture out.

One of my favourite caches! Very clever. Missed it on the first go but found it on the 2nd return. Don't know how long I looked at it before I realised what I was looking at! Any way you look at it, this is a clever one!
Has us going for a few mins.
Cleaver hide alright
Another idea for the future

Nice hide! TFTC. Actually got it 01.01.08 but the calendar has not rolled over for this year yet!
Nicely contructed cache! In full view but will definitely fool all those passing muggles. Many thanks.
Finding it was easy enough. It was a race putting it back though as the mozzies attacked in fury.

A sneaky hide at 2am. Lots of fun with torches trying not to be seen. The log book was jammed in too tight and fingernails tore the logbook trying to remove it. Very clever cache. TFTC.
Found at about 2am in about 20 seconds. Nice cammo job but the logbook is jammed in so tight we nearly destroyed it trying to get it out.
Thanks,
Chris & Vera
(Note - this entry should be on the 16th but the smart folks at Groundspeak don't realise there are timezones other than the US )

The Camo Master is certainly on top of his game, and we weren’t disappointed. Nice touch, but we spotted it straight away. Thanks for the great hide Glyn.

Got to GZ and spotted something. Yep, thats pretty cool! This is a rather nice park. I think I shall try and place a cache in here, keeping with the theme of cause!
Thanks for the cache Master! I shall have to pull my socks up!

19h45 - Yeh FTF. Being familiar ground for me, I had to go and look what I could find!!
As I came up to GZ, the gps still indicated 5m to go, but I spotted something, and Yip there it was, nicely camoed and manufactured!!
