One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

I am pretty certain this is gone. Brand new guard rail, no mention of replacing the cache onto the new rail. I looked in the coords today, but found nothing.

Could not find, exact gps locates new guard rail so possible it's now gone
 
13-Nov-13
Me and my dad drive past this spot everyday, and today I saw that there is now a new steel barrier, replacing the old one, so the cache is almost certainly gone.
 
16-Oct-13
Old log full and needs replacing. New temporary log also almost full. TFTC

Found this one on a day out with muggle brother and sister.
Found cache easy enough just waiting for a gap in the traffic to grab it is the hard part.
As has been said a few times now log is full it needs replacing and I didn't have anything to put in for this.
Thanks to jimi jones for this one.

Ky was at a show at the Entertainment Centre today so Daz went on a short spree. On approach to GZ it was quickly apparent what was required and the cache was rapidly in hand. TFTC.
 
21-May-12
Coordinates a little out as our GPS's had it on the road, but an easy find with the clue. Thanks jimi jones
 
19-May-12
found it 3rd one for the day TFTC
 
..
 
05-May-12
Cool Found it, photo clue made us look in the wrong place for a while, clue was similar to other caches we had been to, had to wait for break in traffic to get cache and then put it back.
 
06-Apr-12
Good Friday is a perfect day for caching, especially in usually high muggle areas, 5 so far today, this was my second try at this, been avoiding it for years but the GPS pointed in the right direction this time although the coords may be a little off, TFTC jimi jones!!
 
24-Mar-12
Pretty sure we know where it should be with the hint, but couldn't find.

Could someone please confirm it is still where it should be?
 
21-Feb-12
Quick find thanks Cool
 
Too hard for us today.
Found GZ but it kept changing so we went for the hint.
Seems pretty logical but didn't come to our hand today.
Oh well next time, cheers GUIO
 
01-Jan-12
Quick find in between the traffic. TFTC.
 
31-Dec-11

I arrived during peak traffic time with cars queuing every where. I had to come back later when there were not as many cars and drivers watching my every move.
 
03-May-11
We reluctantly parked in a very dodgy looking area and walked up the stairs. Ignored the GPS to look in the obvious type of location where we have found several similar caches before. A break in the peak hour traffic allowed us to fetch and log. Thanks for the hide.
 
02-Apr-11
it is a mystery
 
31-Mar-11
Grabbed this one after dropping the wife at the train station.
Picked the right side of the road straight up and after going for the clue the cache was found quickly.

Not quite what I expected - I was looking for a real meadow! Quick find. Thanks.
 
Took a walk around the surounding area while attending the 2011 Ulysses Club AGM event.
http://www.ulyssesclub.org/branches/lowerhunter/2011_AGM_update1.htm

This is an annual event which runs for 7 days every year in a different location around Australia.
This year it is being held in Newcastle at the Newcastle Harness Racing Club grounds.

A very subtle clue.. TNLN. TFTC.

As per usual we went the wrong way first, does this happen to other cachers I wonder? SL TFTC
 
08-Mar-11
Found it No. 3518 ... good clue ... TNLN ... TFTC

Nice quick one, muggle less at night.
 
16-Jan-11
Reperio at 1600. Just finished buying a fridge from Harvey Norman, and was about to head off to grab something to eat when I noticed this one was right across the road. Darwinian and I wandered over to GZ, only to find a few suspicious looking characters already searching for the cache. We were tossing up waiting until they made the find, but decided to head over and say g'day. The cache was quickly spotted, and after a brief chat, we headed off for a much needed bite to eat.

Gratias.

Even the blind mice found it...

A cloudy day, perfect to do some caches. The first caches in 2011. We opened up the cinema for the kids in the back seat of the car and drove around. My cousin showed us all the houses she'd lived in. We found this cache quickly and went on to the next one. Greetings from Holland, TFTC!

Our last cache for the day - took a minute or two to pinpoint GZ. Otherwise another interesting part of town. TFTC
 
29-Dec-10
Last find for the day, good spot. My 150th cache too! TFTC.
 
27-Dec-10
Felt like a bit if an idiot for this one with all the muggles doing past. Open your eyes can n a little hard to see.
 
26-Dec-10
Looked in correct spot for 20 min. Awesome hide
 
23-Dec-10
Grabbed this in morning peak hour. With good timing, muggles were still avoided. Thanks.
 
14-Dec-10
Loved the hint!
 
05-Dec-10
Parked on the wrong side of the road and when I found it I realized I forgot me pen. Haha
Very busy traffic with frequent long
pauses.
TFTC
 
01-Nov-10
Co-ords seemed a little off on this one, but that just could have been the heavy cloud cover.

Finally found it with some help from the hint, though.

SL TFTC!
 
01-Nov-10
Spent a long time on the wrong side of the road, thanks to Just_Ice_Au for the brilliant GPS navigation :p.
Eventually found, the last cache we managed to find before the rain started.

P.s. Cache is no longer a film canister.
 
Fairly easy cache, a little different to the description. Lovely spot, had a nice play on the park. TFTC!
 
26-Oct-10
Got a little embarrassed, took the wrong road. Trucks passed overhead and the lights went on.
 
24-Oct-10
Easy find, TFTC SL

An easy find while out hunting with The Morgans. TFTC Smile A good little hide in a good little spot.
 
11-Oct-10
This is our 4435th overall find.

Found at about 6:36 PM. Found this one very quickly, a simple little find. I hadn't seen too much of Broadmeadow before today, some of it I can now see why. I think Clean up Australia would be busy near this one for a while.

Thanks to jimi_jones for the cache.

Dvixen had a look for this one and had no luck, so I had a go. Found it fairly easily and just had to wait for the traffic to clear before I could replace it.

Decided to let Eynowd go for this one after a slap on the head from a swooping magpie (I screamed like a little girl) and an unsuccessful attempt to see the cache. Sad

The magpie must have put the cache back, he had no problems locating it!

TFTC!
 
22-Sep-10
Another quick find at lunch time after a little stroll but I must have missed the meadow somehow.
 
21-Sep-10
Tried for this one a year or so ago but was missing or I could not find it. Easy find tonight. Thanks

this one was tricky!
had to get a stick in there before we knew we found it.
 
24-Aug-10
The hide is a bit of a misnomer! Managed to find the cache in the first place that I looked - the second time that I looked there! Red Face
 
19-Aug-10
Had to head over this way to look at the microwave tower just to the south. Stopped for a walk up the stairs from the street below for a quick find. Thanks jimi_jones.
 
15-Aug-10
Nice quick find
 
07-Aug-10
Found at 1.05pm GAFF1. A quick find, but unfortunately on the way to the cache we had to go by a lot of unsavoury rubbish including a used syringe. Odd as we found this town very clean and tidy upto now.
Thanks jimi_jones – I suppose you already know about the condition of the log book. You better go and fix it before it becomes totally unusable.
 
04-Aug-10
nice one. log was too wet to write on, and full. needs new log in zip bag. will do in next few days if no-one does before me. Smile

We found Stroll the meadow (GC1DQHM) on a Very Windy Bank Holiday Monday with Ruffas and Travelling Wilkos, our 26th of 46 finds and our 1318th overall find. Nice quick find TNLNSL. Thanks for the cache, jimi_jones. Deputy D0g.
