Haven't been able to get to the site to re-start the cache. We'll archive it now, and bring it back to life when we can some time in the future.

Thanks,

I feel like we should be playing soft music as we send this cache into temperary hibernation.

Sad Unfortunately I need to shut this one down for a while - no-one has been able to find it for so long... including our surrogate owners who live near by - looks like it's gone to the big cache in the sky. Next time we're over we'll see if we can find the good spot and try it again.

Apologies to all who looked but didn't find. For reasons unknown, I'd dropped off the distribution list and didn't know what I didn't know!

Cheers,

e&m

We couldnt find it!!! Blast??
 
28-Feb-11
Hmmm. I looked right in the crack where lightning did its thing and there was nothing there. Seriously. Come. Check. Owners.
 
22-Feb-11
i swear it isnt there and has been nicked
 
02-Feb-11
dont think its there anymore.....
 
29-Jan-11
We searched high and low and it's not where the coords show. Muggggggled???? Suggest owner checks this out
 
24-Jan-11
I'm not sure what's going on here... no finders for months (are folks afraid to log a DNF?). I'm not & there was no sign of the cache despite an extensive search in the area suggested by the hint. I did disturb a poor blue tongue lizard who was not at all impressed by my poking about, so please be careful if you go looking in the area (for the sake of the harmless lizard). I think you need to check this one out e&m.

This cache seems to be a bit too exposed. Each time we've visited looking for trackables they've not been there. Is it being muggled? TFTC

Found today quite easily.
I was very cautious after Noley B's encounter with a spider, as I HAAATE spiders. Yikes. Luckily there were none to be found.
TNLN. Had to get out quickly as I thought the tractor working close by was gonna take out my car!
This cache still needs maintenance too!
 
05-Jun-10
Easy find, although muggles working in area. Container needs urgent upgrade due to numerous holes in the bottom of it. Pen fell out when I lifted it up and when I put my hand in to take out the log book etc..........there was a big spider coming along for the ride as well.........Take some aroguard as the mozzie attacks are thick and fast. Took - pirate coin. Left - I luv Australia Pin..SL thanks again.........Noley B

A quick find on the way home today, sorry to say no TBs at all. TFTC
 
16-May-10
Parked a Looooong way away from this so it took longer than it should have.
I didn't realise there was a golf course there so had to walk all the way around it.
Couldn't be bothered doing the same all the way back so ran across the green in between golf balls.
TFTC
 
15-May-10
No travel bugs in sight in the cache anymore sad to say. There is a heap of cut down branches next to the cache so I tried to cover it as best I could before the maintenance team comes through and takes the branches away.

TNLN - SL

Cheers Cool

Found after dark as earlier the roadwork crew had made it impossible to approach the cache. Still full of holes Razz but found easily in the dark. Couldnt check it for TB's as my torch failed and I was just trying to get out of there. Cheers from Sydney
