Nuts, that's why I couldn't find it today. I really must update my GSAK db and remove the archived ones!
I checked on it today, the whole garden has been ripped apart, and the object of the hint has worn off. No sign of the cache or contents. So therefore, I am archiving my very first cache (in more ways than one). Thanks to all that found.

Couldn't find it either, though as noted before there has been lots of clean up done in the gardens.
Searched and searched, with no joy. Wondered if it had been removed when all the Rhododendrons were taken out. All I got was a thorn in my arm from poking around in a very prickly bush. I must be thick, too, as the clue meant nothing to me nor to a couple of locals I talked to. Drat!

A quick find once faith was put in the GPS. Sorry for the late log, TFTC.
#4 of 5 today. Probably took a little longer than we should have to nail it but got there in the end. TFTC.
After midnight so no school-muggles, nice cache in a nice location. Night was fairly warm too

Sneaky tucked back there. Quick find with frost.falcon on a beautiful night to be out. What a tidy cache!
nice quick find.although nearly got muggled by an old lady and her dog out for a walk
Went down under the cover of darkness. No muggles around to see us shining torches into the bushes. Didn't take too long to find. Dropped off Cache Jumper (a visitor from Oregon) to begin a tour of NZ. TFTC
Very cold, very wet, very low muggle count, very very quick find! Nice gardens though - thanks.
Lots of wee muggles and their parents were playing at the playground but fortunately the area where the cache was located was muggle-free and away from curious eyes. Spent wee while hunting for it and finally tracked it down without too much problems. TFTC. SL. TNLN.
Must admit this one had me stumped for a while - was just leaving dishearted when I did one last check and found it. The clue actually put me off more than helped. It didn't help to have my wife pelting me with seeds of a nearby tree.stating I needed more of a challenge to find caches and to think of it like the Krypton Factor - no more Krypton Factor for her.
Thanks for the cache - not too many muggles around today.

Glad we didn't come when it was busy! Fortunately at around 5pm on ANZAC day the park was pretty quiet. TNLN. Cheers.

The biggest problem was the muggle with the dog, who has 'seen lots of council workers carrying those things.' I think she wanted to see it in action... I got time to myself eventually. Swapped my hackey sack for some ribbon. Another park with lovely autumn colours starting to show. TFTC.
quick find in a busy spot, did a bit of hide and seek with the kids to allow us to rummage..... it worked well TFTC
My first cache find, thanks for the help. Picked up Travel Bug "Pink Apple Kitty".

Took a bit of peeking around before I spotted it. I have to say I'll long since given up worrying too much about looking weird while geocaching But no one around GZ today. TFTC and Cheers.
Went at night so no muggles around. Spotted straight away. Took Travel Slug TB, Left Don't Get Stung Geocoin. TFTC
Well I got to Mosgiel and realized I had not entered the cache coordinates into my GPS. Visited the public library to use free internet there - the cache really isn't too far, is it! Good hide, TFTC. TNLNSL.
Had to go to Mosgiel so although it was pouring with rain I thought it would be a good opportunity to have a go at this cache. Fortunately it was a quick find. Well done on your first hide.
Fun find while waiting for takaways. Big event on in park but muggles stayed away. TFTC
Found on a very cold and wet day. Nicely hidden
