09.45am i was on my long holiday with some out of date information,this happened 27 times while i was in melbourne,practically a whole days caching eh. this is a nice park but i decided after a while that this must have gone,now i am back in a very cold snowy england i see why. happy caching patandjeff=bones1.
The cache hiding place has been reduced to a mound of sawdust, but thanks to laurenda, the cache itself was not lost. I have retrieved it with the log book intact which was nice.
It's had a pretty good run here, we'll look at another cache in the area soon. Thanks to all that found it.

#296 7th of 8 in an arvo of caching today. Thought the cache was lost but found it fully exposed nearby - I put it in nearest hide area. Thanks Coffee and Cache.
Thought I would drop in to the park on the way home from work. Nice easy find at 1545hrs. Had to watch out for the passing muggles. Enjoyed the seat and the ability to relax on a nice sunny afternoon.
Thanks for the cache.
Thanks for the cache.
Easier to retrieve than return , thanks to a sudden stream of people walking up the path. Some of the Gum leaves at GZ are HUGE! TFTC
Last for the day at 5:20pm... these winter days. I nice quick one - I imagined Muzza and Kiwideb calling this one from the road - memories from caching days past.

Lovely little green strip for a short stroll. Many were doing this so care had to be taken.

Found it in the dark with a mini torch!
Thought it was rubbish at first haha
Got a few muggles riding by down the path, but they could barely see us, let alone what we were doing

Found with CDNB on a day of casual caching. Another Urban park that we suspect was previously waste ground amidst an industrial estate. It was great to see a child care centre adjacent to what must be a workplace for many mothers and fathers.

Finally getting around to logging this. Found on 1 May, while staying overnight with a friend who lives not far away, while en route to California!! Good hide. Thanks for the cache
Found it, but had to 'dig' around to find it. Used to ride around that place as a kid, good memories
Tree was making scary noises and has a nasty crack in it. We didn't look very long.
The cache is fine, just a bit too well hidden. The council has come and lopped a branch off the tree which was in danger of falling, but they didn't compromise the cache.
Quick grab to avoid being seen by the workers in factory.
Easy find with Trailertrash78 and Skooby

12.45PM, found this during lunch break with a workmate (GEOPAUL), very nice looking park. TFTC.
Found @ 3.35pm. Quick and easy find, Geokid had it in hand before I even got there. TFTC, TNLN.
Nice quick cache However the tree has a fair crack in it and the sound as the wind blows, may be time to Evacuate the cache... TFTC TNLN SL
Nice easy little find. A few dog walking muggles, and the kids aren't too quiet about the whole thing, but who questions a family in the park on Sunday afternoon? TFTC

Found at 14:00 hrs today. Quite a familiar name as it came up in my searches last summer and pretty sure it was in my mind as a cache to do, though not sure why it was never attempted. Though it was quick find in quite a nice little park. I cycled the entire length of it after logging the cache, before heading on to do some caching around Cheltenham. Thanks C&C!
XC stopped here on way to clients... Nobody about today... Nice hide..

Tricky to find but Aidan saved the day! Came from completely the wrong direction so had to do a bit of fence climbing. 3rd find today - happy with that effort. Miss J still bleeding internally - she wants you all to know that because we don't care.
Found after some looking. It was in the first place I looked but missed it somehow. TFTC.
Nice quick simple cachce. Noone around except for the sound for 20 crying babies. TFTC.
Found, with other Family cachers, also tried to involve more family members but dont think they will make the cut?
Found with TiedyeSmileys and The Easts whilst introducing another sibling to the game don't think she'll get into it liked the concept but freaked out at the thought of getting dirty.
Took along a muggle sister for her first go at geocaching here. Luckily there was no one about in the park at the time. Still undecided if they would get in to it but we enjoyed the hunt.

1153 Sometimes I get a fix on somewhere (regardless of the GPS) and just head to there - well, that place was where the locals drop their dog poo containers. I didn't look in any of them but I did have a look at the GPS and headed to the GZ for a much nicer and easy find. TFTC Coffee and Cache

This was my first find for the afternoon after 2 unsucessful attempts.
Lovely day which made the amount of muggles around rather difficult.

After messing around unsuccessfully we reread the description noting the size of this cache and quick as a flash we were onto it! gee did that give us back our b-b-bounce! T4TC
After searching the GZ and other nearby possible hides, M and I sat down for a minute while S continued to search. A good thing she did as we had no sooner sat down when she wandered over with the cache in hand. Logged the find and watched S as she returned it to its hide. TFTC. KeMS

I found this cache with caughtatwork and the family today. Big sister J found this cache today while I was looking a little bit lower. Thank you.
Found this late at night. No muggles, which made it easier but all the bugs were out! Good little spot. TFTC
This one needs a new log, we are the absolute last name that is going to fit on the paper. TFTC.
Found this one after pulling up in the car and spotting Mr. Roo and his family down at the cache site. Signed log rehid and left as muggles with dogs were on there way in. TFTC
Hopefully this location doesnt get to damaged. Nice location felt like waving to the workers saying hahaha look at me enjoying myself TFTC
Log needs replacing... =D
Just figured out how to leave a need's maintenance log =P

Haved worked in the old ciggie factory for many years and took me 7 months to go out and get it.
Not sure if the tree will be around for long with all its moaning in the wind.

Found at 14:45 with Shimachic.
Sat in the car waiting for some 'muggles' to leave the area - but realized it was actually BuzzMeeks replacing the cache. Made the find very easy...

Another Post Sunday footy find. EB Max and EB Chief on the way home went on a mini hunt. Great location, couldn't decide which side of the fence we should be on. TNLN. EB Chief out
Found by Earthbound Max and Earthbound Chief.
Quick search. Not in place first suspected. After looking at GZ for a minute we agreed that it was a place to hide a cache and EB Chief went back dug deeper to find the cache.

Found this in fading light on a chilly winter's afternoon. My first assumption of GZ proved to be incorrect and after widening my search I came up with the goods at 17:25.
Many thanks to Coffee and Cache.

First cache of the day. A nice brisk morning to the cache site at 8am which gave us a good view of the factories and workers arriving to work. We wondered if the owner could see us hunting for the treasure at GZ. Spent a wee while hunting then came up with the prize. A good hide and great start for a geocaching day. Thanks Coffee and Cache.
Found 3pm after alot of wondering after sighting "Evacuation assembly point" sign on the back Eastern fence of the area...
