Had a spare mint tin & logsheet in my bag so placed this temporarily until CO can check it. Covered by pine needles and rocks topped off with a pine cone. TFTC 
Nothing found. Ground here looks to have changed a bit. Can CO confirm whether still in place please?
I suspect roadworks have destroyed the spot it was planted, please check when you have the chance. thanks
DNF today 
unsure if it's been muggled by the road workers, would be interested to know
unsure if it's been muggled by the road workers, would be interested to knowOur GPS was playing up so maybe that was the reason we DNF it or could it have been muggled?
Go to the gym or go geocaching? Hmm, geocaching! A nice and easy find almost sorta close to work. Tftc. Picked up a TB as well.
Nearly another as my gps was pointing 15 mtrs away. But got a smiley at the end. Cheers
Another day, another random drive to cache. We set off after lunch to find a few in the wider area, to see how far we get and what we can fit into an afternoon/evening. The weather was perfect - drizzle the whole day, turning into rain at times, meaning a general paucity of muggles A huge thanks to all CO's for their hides!!!
A huge thanks to all CO's for their hides!!!Was buried under dumped couch last time I passed, so missed it. All clear today . Thanks
Final morning our caching with the DCC group before heading back to Dunedin. Loved driving and grabbing these ones.
On a day trip from the Chch Mega 2015 with Team Naki. This one is a wrap. Mission accomplished TFTC!

On a bit of a clean up mission, picking up some horses we missed a couple of days ago. The Chief has his eye on a challenge cache and this cache was on the way. TFTC
Flew over from Sydney Australia for the weekend with snoopy1976, contactpete and spy79 for the Mega event. This cache was either part of the cache-o game or one I needed to fill in my hide calendar. SL #2268 on streak day #1207 TFTC
WE CAME OVER FOR THE NZMEGA AND WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED.
Thank you for a great event.
we had a blast learning about Christchurch and surrounding areas, With RIS768, SPY70, SNOOPY1976.
THANK YOU AGAIN

While up here in Christchurch at the Mega one of the games we played was Bingo. Ya had to run around caches looking for stamps so ya could stamp ya Bingo card to get lines or complete ya card. Well I completed my card and won first prize for it. So TFTC ? and thanks for your help in winning and having lots of fun.
Streak Day #836 - Found whilst on a EGA jaunt with ris768, spy79 and contactpete. TFTC
Found with whiskasnz and gadget169 while out and about looking for stamps for the mega bingo and picking up the odd cache as we are in the area. TFTC
Thanks Grandalf for placing the cache, we found this
one during our travels whilst attending the NZ Mega.
I have had an eye out for any caches that the co-ords had
heaps of zeros and this one did. Did take a bit of time for
the gps to lock on the zero's though.

We flew over 20500 kilometers to get to New Zealand. [^] There in Queenstown we started our magnificent and unforgettable journey along the whole NZ. First we drove through south island and then the north island to Auckland. Altogether over 3000 kilometers by car and so many glorious and beautiful views, animals and plants we saw. [^] 
We fell in love with the country for life. Unfortunately we had only three weeks to spend for our holidays, but we really hope, we’ll be back.
We parked our car nearby and as the D/T-combination shows, this was a quick find. [^] Thanks for the cache and very many greetings from Finland.

Out caching with Team FARKIS (fmz, alpenmilch80, rosmar, kiwi.bug, indianajill, slieschke) while down for the CHC mega event. This was one of the caches we visited along the way. Thanks to all the owners of caches we found! TFTC
Today was a stamp collection day. Mycro Man and the fairy half decided we would do all the caches that had stamps in them. Total round trip of 260km approximately and a few of them had missing / stolen stamps. Mycro Man really enjoyed finding the caches and stamping the stamps. There were a number of really nice caches and we interspersed a few of the caches with high favourites amongst the list. Thanks for all the caches.
I've always wanted to do a confluence cache, but a convergence is the next best thing. And it's a fairly old one too. TFTC
Found while in the area. The numbers lined up nicely for this one. I had to back later as it had been selected to participate in the MEGA bingo.. but when I returned in the evening, there was no stamp to be found..
Found at 09:50 AM - #5475

[green] Really a cache just hidden along a random fenceline where there is an awesome burnt out hulk just down the road? Okay maybe that's recent and may not last long before it is carted away. Read the cache page... OH YEAH!!!! Forget the burnt out hulk! This cache gets a fav! Found while winding my way to the airport to pick up a geo buddy.
this was my last day in the big city for work so had to grab a few more caches before heading back to Geraldine
on first approach thought it had gone up in smoke so I made it a lot harden than it should have been after re reading the description I had it in hand tftc

It was raining and cold but..... any day is a good day for a cache! We were over this side of town for the arvo getting us some caches. Geo kid found this 1, shes getting pretty good at the seeking thing TFTC
Not as quick as it should have been, had to move a old couch to find it that someone had just thrown against the fence. Fixed the hide and moved on. TFTC
This was one the caches that we picked up while circling the airport filling in time until it got dark and our flight home. Thanks for this cache. Love numbers and this made the OCD side of me smile. Fav point
wow, all those noughts... GZ almost had us tricked but no... there is was! (Favourite point)
Nice easy find after watching planes land on windy day at airport. Quite convenient seating near GZ at the time. TFTC
Having an Easter "it's all about the numbers" weekend. Day 3
Took me a while to unearth this one today.

Well eight noughts anyway. Took us a few minutes of up and down to find.Then suddenly saw it and felt a bit foolish. Left geocoin which we have had for too long. Hope someone will soon move it on.
After a dinner with friends, the hubby and I were heading home when I realised that I didn't get a cache! A quick detour to get a torch and a raincoat, and we were on our way to get this cache. Spent a few minutes looking and then spotted something that seemed to be out of place. Signed the log and returned to the patiently waiting hubby. TFTC!
Lovely quiet area so near to a major city but so rural. A brief search revealed the cache. My son found it after my daughter missed it !!!
A quick drive by to grab this as we where heading out toward Rangiora. Nice hide. Cheers
Possible damaged by the recent storm as there were several fallen trees and a broken fence. I will try to attach a photo of GZ.
Easy find with not a muggle in sight

This was my 4th cache find of the evening, an easy find was quite out in the open.
Final Day in Christchurch and a final early start to get in the odd cache or 12 before spending our last few hours seeing the sights before having to return the rental car and fly back home.
Its been a great weekend in both catching up with friends and family that we haven't seen for a long time, the weather could not have been better and plenty of fun caches, Thanks to one and all
The final few caches of the trip and a very quiet road at this time of the morning, no problems locating the cache

Chocochunk and I were out here checking out Sharvin Lodge -- a bit pathetic. Then we swung by this cache and grabbed it. Quick find on this pleasant day.
Zeroed in on the cache straight away. Thanks for the hide.
