Collected the info but the final gz appeared to be on private property.

Shifted final. Altered puzzle to suit.

Gathered all the required info the previous day, but was unable to find the cache, sent our workings to the CO for marking, they confirmed we had the correct answers and also informed us that the cache was indeed missing... pesky gardeners. Many thanks pinot noir for interesting cache, cheers YuGeo4.

the cache has gone missing. I will shift it to another location in the near future.

Did the first part of the puzzle ok, but lost my nerve on the final. Came back after dark and did it

#1587 (14/15 on a second day on the Coast). Had done the book work on this one in preparation for our 2008 trip. The remaining info proved easy to get, though some some stealth was needed at a couple of WPs (evening meetings in progress). TFTC.

8:30pm on a Thursday evening was a good time to do this as it was very quiet at GZ.
TFTC.

We were silly enough to be out looking in the wind and rain today. We had something on for 2pm so wanted to get one done early for 10/10/10. Thanks for an easy find

Spent the last day of the school holidays on a wet and windy day trying to find a cache with my Aunty.

We gathered the necessary information yesterday, and visited the cache location mid morning today. Although we found suitable hint objects, we felt very exposed, and were reluctant to pry further when the location was not immediately obvious.

Had time off from vets tennis to take a leisurely stroll from our motel (Recreation) to the Catholic, Anglican and Uniting Churches and then further again. Found a lovely park and gardens when we took a wrong turn. After a walk through the gardens we got back on track again and found the cache. Thank you.

Found with Mongyspeed TFTC

had worked the clues out last year but found it hard to look during the day but finally finished it off with ribsc

Nice drive around greymouth and easy cache find. Cheers

Nice little wander in the dark this evening. TFTC #893

Did this one in two stages as we waited for the cache owner to conjure up a new final cache container for us while we were in town Collection of info was pretty straightforward, but found the final had disappeared. A note to the owner was responded to in lighteningly speedy fashion, and when we were back on the 4th, found it exactly where we thought it should be. Thanks for the top notch service, and the cache!

this cache has been muggled. I have replaced it again, and put it in a slightly different hiding place.

finally got around to fixing this today.

Oh dear - the second time this has happened to us this trip. On going to log our DNF we discover that the cache has really gone missing. We found all the answers - checked them twice - even returned to the churches in case we had transposed something. We searched the area for the final thorougly even all the surrounding area then the whole block! Every time we went past we would hop out and have another look - all in vain int seems. Hopefully the cache will still be going next time we are visiting.

Thanks
Iris & Rodney

I checked this on the way home from work tonight and it is not there. I will try and get it fixed this weekend.

Think we'd sorted out the puzzle OK, and the final made contextual sense and the hint was applicable - but we couldn't find anything to sign (well not without resorting to grafitti!).

A hearse was pulling in just as I got to the first church but as no family where about took the few minutes to lift the numbers and off. No problems any of the cache.

Found the "Carpark Opened" rather funny, a strange thing to record. No hatches, matches, or dispatches in progress today so no problem gathering the information, or grabbing the cache itself.
Many thanks.

On the way out of town this morning I stopped by the 2 waypoints and gathered the data required to ascertain the final coords. The final assault I left to later in the day. In fact it was very much later in the day before I got there - 10.30pm! It was an easy find at that hour with only the odd car passing by. Thanks for the cache. (Actually, at WPT2, the plaque states that the carpark opened on the 8th Dec.)

it was an easy find with harley5447 but people were stairing at us so i had 2 drop a pen to find it

Nice easy cache find. Went with Snapper123 to show him how to find question mark caches. He was good at finding the info. TFTC

opps, forgot to log this one found it months ago.

Thanks Bitsprayer

Well, we decided it was a holy emergency today! So just as well we had one cache left around town to do!!! Having made it as far as Reefton in our efforts to get to the Event in Nelson this weekend, and been foiled in our plans by the cachemobile's transmission, after we crept home again, we set out in the not-quite-rain to do this cache. It all worked out well, and we found the cache quite safe in its hidy spot. Thanks!!

Found with Jemnz.

Lovely multi! Most of the numbers were retrieved from our home church so we had a bit of an advantage! TFTC

A little concerned about the placement stability of the cache though.

first cach i've done in a while, easy little multi.

Found this one with my Dad, Moneydork.

An enjoyable wee multi cache. TFTC

A nice quick night time find. Everything worked out nicely. Information quickly gathered, calculations done and the cache retrieved. TNLN, TFTC.
