Billy Who? Blayney, New South Wales, Australia
By suzukifreak_1 on 13-May-08. Waypoint GC1C726

Somebody has crawled into the hiding spot and taken a dump, they left a nice little pile of toilet paper for me to find.
The ammo can is also missing, presumed stolen. (probably by the phantom shitter).

Either way, it's gone.

I'm going to drop in on this one this afternoon. I have had contact from a player (Thanks Goughy2012) that indicates it has been muggled.
Hope not but I'll check anyway.

Cheers

Hmmmm This one has been destroyed photos have been sent to the CO as well as a request for their permission in logging this cache. (Thank you for letting us collect a smily here)


We found the GZ with enough ease but got distracted by what i think to be a beautiful Australian Little Falcon gosh these birds of prey we have in our country are AMAZING. During this trip for the first time in my life i was able to witness the majestic power and beauty of the Wedge Tailed Eagle in the wild and lets say i love these birds they are the most beautiful things in the world. Shame NSW still issues licenses to shoot them.

Anyway where was i

Are yes we found a suitable location to enter said tree and alas the log book has been broken up and thrown all over the ground No ammo tin was to be found here and there is remnant of a plastic box here as well. We signed a bit of paper and tried to get to the box and put some back together hopefully they are still there, and emailed the CO straight away to inform them of the cache status and to request permission for a find.

Sad to see old caches like this being left like this by muggles. Would love for them to just leave things as they were. Any who

SL with Kjap and emailed CO,

Once again than you for permission in logging this find given its status.

Nice spot and an interesting read. Picked up a trackable to take overseas -tftc!

We have returned from Canada to discover a few more Australian caches! What a great way to explore the Land Down Under" ...

Great bit of history. Amazing person Billy must have been! This cache gets a favourite point from us
Dropping off 3 trackables.

Thanks for the fun suzukifreak_1!

Easy to find

Easy find without the trackable

Found

Easy find and good historical spot

It was time to go home from my week in Bathurst for the V8 supercars I didn't wanna leave

I spotted this one on the way towards Bathurst and I was intrigued to see the statue so I decided I would call in on the way home. [:p]

Cache found quickly, signed the log and replaced the cache. I was expecting something a bit bigger than what I found and unfortunately there are no trackables within the cache as identified.

Thanks for the cache placement suzukifreak_1

btw GO HOLDENNNNNNNNNN!!!! Lowdsy you little beauty

Nice find by the geofiance!!! Tftc

Nice easy one on the way through town. Tftc!!!

Soo easy. Container smaller than stated. No sign of the two listed TBs. Left a purple jewel. TFTC.

Was with our kids watch the filthy needles near statue

Too Easy

TFTC

Easy find and a great place stop and learn a little more about a town we pass through so often. (Shame about the syringe found near the statue)

Found Luke and Mat at work

Found our first!!! Was where it said it was

Great little hide and a nice park.

Grate little find. Took torch TB and added lady bug TB. Happy hunting

TB dropped off

Visited with TB

Stopped past here on our way from Bathurst to Cowra, which was just one leg of our road trip from Beaufort Vic, up to Wisemans Ferry (for the Tom Quilty horse endurance ride) and back again.

This indeed was a worthwhile stop, not only for a leg stretch, but to read the story of Billy Soo. Indeed an inspiring gentleman for the local community. Thank you suzukifreak1 for bringing us here.

Nice easy find thanks for leaving it here

TFTC, Nice little spot.

Moving story. Sorry to read about his untimely end. Good use of Geocaching...
-------- TFTC 1054 --------------

This wasn't an ammo tin!!!! But the cache was dry and safe!!!

A quick and easy find near interesting local history. TFTC.

found today with Commando283, Jackal261 and Link1510, Thanks For The Cache.

Found it after read info about Billy.
Thanks for bring me here and cache.

Looked and looked but came up empty.

Easy find.

Enjoyed the visit and the find on my post MEGA road trip.

TFTC

Found it on a wet Easter Monday while heading home from Cowra. Quick find in a soggy park thanks to the hint. TFTC

I love a good sized container. Thanks for bringing me here.dropped of tb

Had to laugh. As I pulled up the rain had set in and I thought I was muggled out because there was a guy standing under the shed. As I pulled in it all clicked I stopped to read about a remarkable man and then went to find a perfect cache. Many thanks for putting out a good one.

Travelling thru on our way to the Mallee. Tftc

Found thankyou easy to find for the kids and they had a ball looking threw the treasures also good to teach them just to add something :

This one could easily be called a 'drive-by', and the cache was soon in hand. I read the story about Billy Soo, although his life experiences could well describe many similar during those years, but it was a shame that he came to a fateful end. Left a mygear geo trackable, and an abalone shell from Tasmania. TFTC

A quick dive into GZ had me holding the cache, no Trackable inside though. TFTC

Day 79 of my trip to Brisbane.

Seventh day on the road, today we're headed for Young. We'll have brekky, do a few caches in Bathurst, then head off, caching the while. I'm a bit late with the logging, I'm home now, and have five days of caching to log, of which this is the fourth. Have I made 1000 caches on the trip? Today's twenty gets me to 994.

No 11 of 20 today. Thanks, suzukifreak_1. Interesting bit of history, thanks for bringing us here. There was a persistent muggle, so I had to walk the GeoSchnauzers around until he left. They, of course, wanted him to stay. Once he left, I found the cache quickly.

Well done thanks

Billy is a great Chinese name, Yeh, as description states, it was a quick find.
Thank you very much for that type of container, we love that type.

Easy find. No trackables though. Also wasn't closed properly and was home to hundreds of earwigs. Yuck! Think I managed to get them all out but left a (rubber) lizard inside to take care of any that might've gotten back in. TFTC.

Driving past on our little holiday to canberra thought I'd stop by TFTC

Thanks for this cache. Signed the log book.

TFTC Ps ont recall seeing any travelbugs

Very interesting about history - impressed - good hide spot - took trackable and signed the log. Thanks suzukifreak 1.

I didn't have my gps with me, but I was going past to look at the look out and couldn't resist stopping. the clue was helpful although not specific, so my son and I ran around like headless chickens, checking all the places that matched the hint.
Nice little spot.

Found it on a sunny Sunday afternoon

#169. Nice cache but was very disappointed that the CLARETS travel bug seems to have gone missing as this was the reason for coming out here today... Who took it & where has it gone?!

Looking for my travel bug "Claret" but not amongst various items. Have lost contact with said item.

Quick find as we stopped to look at Billy Soo'd memorial.

Thanks for the cache.

There is a story in this one maybe the current and previous government should come and read.. Thanks for find #999 on our countdown to 1000!

Found it at 4:00am during literal blizzard conditions! First geocache for me. Thanks!

Easy ammo

This was avery easy find, but I re-covered it with leaf litter to make it slightly harder for the next potential finder.
TFTC suzukifreak

My trip today was from Bathurst to Queanbeyan, stopping at a few caches along the way. As I drove up towards GZ, I thought I saw a muggle where I wanted to be. Then I realised, it was Billy himself. Found the cache without any difficulty.

My thanks to suzukifreak_1 for the cache.

Thanks to all the Chinese who helped our country grow.Took shuttle tb and will move him on would have left one but the two I had have been in cache for six months so will put them elsewhere
