We have decided to archive this cache and relocate it as it seems to be a way to muggle prone area. We will place a new one with this name in a new similar, but less muggle prone area soon.
We were tipped off by another local cachers that his one might have gone missing. Went and checked this afternoon, and Yes it has disappeared without a trace!!
Will had a good think about where to relocate the new version of it.
Too many muggles in the immediate area.

Our GPSr was pointing to a tree, but there were others closer to the description in the hint. In the end we checked them all and eventually admitted defeat when the nearby clubrooms started to fill up with some kind of working bee.
Gotta love the rain, one muggle about making a quick dash for cover. T:pokemon figure L:rubics cube. TFTC

No sport here today and therefore the task was much easier. Soon had it in the car for a quick swap of skateboard out and dinosaur in. Thanks.
Found the cache at 5.15pm. Like this one excellent hide spot. No swap. SL. Thanks DeltaEcho for organising the cache and hunt.
Drove right up to this and knew exactly where to look. Cache may not be quite as high up as it should be as Kettle twin 2 did the retrival and replacement. Left a few odd swaps as the cache was almost empty. TFTC
They were playing hockey nearby but didnt seem bothered by up being near the oval.
Easier to spot when you're looking from the right angle. Harder to hide your activities from the muggles having fun and games nearby.
TNLN - Thanks DeltaEcho!

Finally found it after 2nd go. A bit lower than we were looking at. Kids did various swaps. Very proud kids. Great spot.
Long arms helped but didn't keep me away from the gum which was everywhere throughout the hide as a result of the heat!
Enjoyed this one too, thanks Delta Echo

This one was a bit harder! But a good challenge!

Just logging in Old Yella Travel Bug as the previous cachers didn't log it in.
3rd cache found. First day of looking. Took a while to find the cache as it wasn't as high as expected. We think it slipped down a bit. It's Back up where it should be now.
Took yellow Nissan 350Z with travel bug. Left pink eraser.

Rocky Glen Grommets have been meaning to visit this for a while - today in 37 degree heat we did. Grom 2 found this one - we actively looked out for Delta and Echo but we reckon they must have found the air conditioning more appealing! Left a travel Bug Yellow Car 574477 and took a donkey. We enjoyed this - but missed out seeing the RED Geo mobile.
Busy spot here today. Lots of fun and games, though they were tapering off when I was around. Clear skies from TeamAstro.
First find of the day heading over to the coast ...
Didn't see you guys closeby ... Quick Find TNLNSL TFTC

Have to catch the ferry shortly so hopefully will get one more. TN Left cards. TFTC
We are not quick enough for these local guys but it was still good to be among the first few! A good hide idea, new to us.

A nice hide, although a bit of a stretch! Took bug to move on south this weekend. Great to have more cachers locally. Thanks Delta Echo
New cache alerts are a very rare thing these days, so when this one popped up in the email, we decided to go straight out and get it. Thankfully todays fun & games were over so we had the place to ourselves; not that we needed to spend much time looking. [^] We claimed our FTF prize, but decided to discover the TB only,leaving him there for more active cachers to move on. We also added a donkey and a small car to the contents of this largish container. Thanks DeltaEcho, nice cache.
Just dropping off a travel bug
