Go Nuts! Birkdale, Queensland, Australia

As there has been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it has been a number of months since the last owner note 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 (next 30 days), just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

No fooling...this one is gone . The location is no longer suitable due to the VERY nasty thorny plant that has grown since the cache was hidden. I will be locating an alternate spot in the vicinity to keep this nutty cache going. Will remain disabled until then.

Yet another DNF for me today. Having fun though. Found the much logged thorns but no cache. Better luck next time? TFTC

Couldn't find it. Got stabed by thornes and gave up.

Oh no our second DNF in a row... Lots of searching through spikey things and trying not to look too suspicious while a nearby resident kept peering at us while pretending to mow the same patch of grass for the third time... we eventually conceded defeat and moved on. Was fun anyway so thanks

We were in a bit of a rush to meet co-conspirators at another cache across town, but we were in the area, and MissGeosie really wanted to help me find this one today. After the GPS couldn't decide which feature it wanted me to be at, and many of said features having spiky thorny plants around them (a couple of which bit me), we reluctantly called off the search and continued on our mission. I'm sure it's there somewhere.... maybe next time. TFTH, svn07.

Easy find with Cleveland girl as the cache was in plain sight. Covered it up better. No sign of the geocoin tftc

Sweet quite spot. Quick easy find with onward bound. Tftc

Easy find, careful of thorns, shirts dont like them lol TFTC

I spent a fun few hours today down on the southside with this CO and her geoson on our first caching adventure together After I dropped them home I headed off for a few finds on my own. Of course I had to make sure I collected all of her caches [^]

I have been called nutty on many occasions, and there were a lot of laughs and silliness during our adventures today so this cache was very apt. And as I was trying to work out my new GPS device, who should show up again but the CO on her way to collect her daughter Yet another lesson was gratefully received for the new technology. Finally I got organised and headed in the right direction. As I got close to GZ I could see where the cache name came from, then at GZ it was a very short hunt. TFTC, svn07 and for a great day And my favourite kind of nuts are almonds.

easy good hide

Out and about again on the dark side of town to collect some interesting caches on this mild and wonderful day and this was our 14th cache for the day. Loved the name of this cache and now understand its name. What we really liked was a house opposite which have owls around their house and one hugh one on their antenna. Thanks for bringing us to this little area.

Day 2 of my Brisbane holiday with tmann421. Another lovely day and quick find TFTC

Nice quick find with TuisReturn. A great time for us both on holiday around Brisbane. SL TFTC

Well hidden

Gotcha !!! I'm sure I found this one afew years back but I can't see a log . Perhaps I'm wrong or perhaps I just forgot to log it . Anyway, found it again? today....TFTC

Out and about today grabbing a few new caches in the area. On the bicycle of course.

The first stop. A quick find tucked away under the bark and leaves etc.

Thanks for the cache. It is dry and in good condition.

I was on route a hopeful FTF in the area, and decided to stop at this cache, I am trying to make my map in this area ll smilies! Arrived at GZ and GPSr was pointing me to the bridge at first and I jumped to the conclusion that it was on the bridge. My first thought was I hope not as the water was not touching the underside of the bridge. I looked back at the GPSr and it was now pointing me in another direction PERFECT!

I walked right passed the cache and turned on direction from the GPSr and I could make out the tell tell sight of expected GeoCache. The cache was in good condition and the logbook was dry even in this wet weather.

I did not find the Geocoin in the cache, but again maybe I was been a typical male and not looking close enough as I was trying to get out the rain.

TFTC

Found it easy

TFTC

Go nuts, don't mind if I do. The neighbours thought I was weird though. Nice quick find and recovered well. Left "Travel Dolphin Geocoin". TFTH

Geodad accidently picked up wrong geocoin and dropped it off here.

i found gaye's nuts





took smily face
left green ribbon

Out caching with barb and fasted... I wanted to go nuts again .. So I did!!!! And left a coin

Found it. Container was bigger than i though it would be. But good hide.

On the tenth of February 2012 I was picked up by Captain Terror for a caching trip. This was our last cache for the day and i went nuts over it. Well mainly i went nuts trying to make sure it was covered completely and perfectly for the cache owner. Thanks for the cache it made a very lovely 30 for the day and an even nicer 245. Net

Our first find - really enjoyed it - probably left a few false trails! Took bouncy ball, left small spinning top

2:28PM | #10

Our ninth for the day. An amusingly named area. The cache and contents are in good condition.
Left: 5c coin. Took: Turtle.

Great hiding spot and awsome widlife! saw a few water dragon's on the hunt.

Nice

Good hide!

Quick find for today, even though my gps needed to calibrate. Mmmmmmmm almonds!!!!!!

Found during a visit to friends at Birkdale today. They were impressed with our speed in finding it, but after I explained some of the finer points of hiding it from muggle view, shelter from rain, placement of camo etc etc, they saw how it all works. All is fine inside and out; I see there have been other visitors today as well. TFTC svn07!

First for the day on our way to Wynnum for a bit of caching and lunch. Nice quick find which didn't send us nuts! TFTC svn07

After hunting in a couple of likely spots I noticed as I approached gz. I decided to trust gps and had cache in hand in seconds.

Oh yes, very funny indeed. Reminds me of a suburb near my place where it is divided into three sections, and each is themed for street names. Constellations, native flora and Australian birds. As for the cache, I walked past it while reading the description, but once in the right area, found it quickly. Wandered over t watch the little creek flow for a while after that. Good and relaxing after work. TFTC svn07.

Nice easy find while we were in the neighborhood today. The cache was quite exposed, so i covered it over a lot better before i left . Which, by the way, is when the name finally hit us TNLN. Thanks svn07

Parked the car and as it turned out we couldn't have been closer to the cache. Followed the gps and we then spotted the cache a bit exposed. Made sure it was well camo'd when we left. All's good with the cache. Had a laugh to ourselves when we got back in the car and THEN we noticed the relevance of the cache name. LOL! Thanks svn07 for placing the cache here for us to find.

On a small drive I found this cache. It was a nice easy cache, only to find there was no pen in the cache, so a short search back in the car and the log was signed. I now get the title of the cache.
Thankyou

TFTC
(Found with Ems)

Thanks great cache LNTNSL

Short stroll after lunch at the local chinese shop. Tftc

My first cache! TFTC - TNLN

A nice easy find and a good start to the day. TFTC

Hi svn07
found the go nuts cache today with my beautiful wife who with a little more tempting may start to cache herself.tftc

I arrived at this one whilst not a muggle was to be seen. The cache was located after a small hunt and was in excellent condition. A nice little area indeed. TFTC svn07

Me? I'm a cashew man. Found the cache on a lovely Sunday morning. TFTC!

I don't remember when I found this, it was sometime in September. I forgot to log my find back then.
Well, took me about 6-7 minutes of rummaging around in every little hole in the ground (I left my GPS at home).

Found with VWNUTS on a wet caching day ...
Not many to go now.. getting cvloser to the 500

Ta Much!

Well I'm already nuts, so had to give this one a go. Found in the pouring rain with Baroki Scout.
TFTC Svn07

TFTC Found it after a little bit of a search. Took cow and left a magnet.

Yum pastashios for me please. Thanks for the cache, almost time for dinner.

Cache #53 on our Gold Coast to Brisbane road trip. Parked nearby and walked to GZ for a quick find. TFTC, Biggles.

Found this with geokids. This was the second attempt, the first one stopped by muggles playing ball.
Easy, nice hide. The coordinates took us exactly to the cache. Thanks!

I couldn't see the reason for the name on this one until we drove off doh!!! A nice find in the afternoon TFTC Seven07

Arrived here with Ms Wig after lunch with the wounded Gum and the SA herself.

Saw a likely spot, but as I went in to check, I felt something sharp in my back... oh no... was I sprung by the SA

I turned around to find it was just a thorn in the nearby plant... how kind of the SA to place a cache near such a plant

Signed the log, then back to the Nut mobile... I mean the Wig mobile!!



Thanks SVN07 (Enjoy your time in the 700s btw)

Was loosing patience with this one but then tada Nice hide in a nice area
Lots of muggles and recieved a funny look by the locals across the road as we got in the car. Made sure nobody saw us rehide the cache though so it should be safe.
TFTC

Checked every hole and every log and there it was!
Lots of muggle kids around on scooters and bikes which made this find quite challenging.
As tempting as that geocoin looked desided to not be greedy as I already have a TB to find a home for.
TFTC

After spending the morning hunting with the "Nutty" owner of this cache, I headed inbound to hunt one of hers once she had headed home...

I thought I may have been muggled out by a couple of ankle biters playing across the road but when I approached GZ and spotted the container in its lair, I was out of sight and free to conduct secret caching business... [^]

The container was a little exposed so once my sticker was in the log, I packed up, tucked it away and coverred it up with plenty of natural camo...

I left a coin that I brought up from Adelaide.

Cheers Svn07.

Oh OK, here it is... The coin I mean...

found by the barnies the big ants are still there.Took teddy, he didnt like beiing there with the ants ,left koala keyring.

We certainly did go nuts as there was a swarm of nasty big black ants at GZ!! Errgh. No sign of MeerRescue geocoin but took other trackable. Nice area. Thanks svn07

A very quiet place here today. Walked over and had the cache soon after.
Even parked in the street of my favorite nuts, Pistachio. TFTC.

Go Nuts.....I did...and the fellow from the house opposite gave me a weird look! I was heading towards GZ when my normally trusty GPS died....n'er a sign of life No GPS....really time to think like a geocacher. Focusing in on the last image I searched here...and there....and there.....and....well to cut the story short....I eventually found the cache dry and in good condition.

Thanks SVN07

ps...my favourite is cashews

found with Smeeagain our first and last cache of yhe day as I forgot to charge the gps
TFTC TNLN SL

Cache itself was exposed, although its position was not so exposed to the houses. Gotta think like a cacher. TFTC svn07.

easy found it thanks

Good found with geo friend and dog....

Just read the warning about eye level thorns as I was standing right next to them at eye level :O
Heaps of Huntsman Spiders here at night
Have to go back as we ran out of time

found with anddad watch out for thorns

Found at 1200Hrs with bluegonz. Had to wait for a group of teenage girls to wander off before we could hunt for this one. There were some other pedestrians about too, so it is a well used park. TNLN.
Take care near the cache as there are some very sharp thorns on vines growing there. Some of the thorns are at eye level.
Thanks svn07.

Felt quite exposed to the view from the houses here.
Found the cache fairly quickly though.
Nice parks they have around this area.
Thanks svn07

FOUND IT AS CASEYLEE86 AND 80SERIES1990

FOUND IT, TFTC

Found it after a series of no finds with 80series1990. o well ended the day on a good note took geocoin and left the worrydolls trackable.

young fella found it

I looked around for some nuts but none to be seen. My favourite nuts are doughnuts I took the blue crittah TB and left King Borias geocoin. TFTC svn07

I went along with my son and his friend to find this one. We dropped by yesterday but there were a few people around so didn't have much of a look then. Nobody around today and I managed to spot it quite quickly. This is our second find and we're having a ball. TFTC.

Found it No. 1760 ... easy find ... TN and left TB

Found at 0657. A quick find in a nice quiet park, Cache OK and dry. TFTC.

What an interesting little area. I had to dodge a few jogging muggles but GZ was pretty good and I came up with the goods at 0830hrs.

Thanks again SNV07.

TFTC

Logged in a couple of my travellers for a visit.

Bypassed the thorny vine with a stick. Quick find as no-one around to disturb me. TFTC

The local muggle kids paid us no attention as we squirrelled away looking for this one. TFTC

I wonder how many nut jokes the people living here must hear. Cache found safe (after I was attacked by the thorny vine). TFTC

The poor postie must go nuts delivering in this area. Found the cache after arguing with the thorny vine nearby. TN/LN/SL

Entered into the book of LEDGIN'S. Wandered up to GZ and picked up the cache. Not bad for a nutty neighbourhood. TNLN. Thanks svn07

Found OK. Had a laugh about the" Nut House " in the street. Cache is dry after all the recent rain. TNLN. TFTC

TFTC! This one was a toughie! It was very well hidden! Found it in the end though!

Another nice little park - went for a wander round before getting down to business. Found the cache easily and left it as found.

Twilight was setting in, we were on our way home but this one beckoned for one last stop...guarded by some eight legged friends, but cache was found with a little digging around.

Parked in front of the "Nut House" Not my choice of names but I wonder if it is appropriate?

Walked back and found the cache easily and then had to stay hidden when as a muggle resident drove past.

TNLN.

Don't worry about the nuts what about the name of the street that gets you here - BYNG St. Did another cache later in the day that were named after wines - shiraz, resiling, etc. TFTC

A few muggles on the bridge but soon moved on when to geo kids started kicking the ball around .
quick find TFTC

few muggles around but soon mooved on tftc

Gee whiz the council must have run out of inspiration and resorted to the nuts for the names of the streets in this area. Don't think I would like tolive on almond or walnut street!!! Then the other thing we would like to note is that all non-geocachers definitely think we - geocachers - are all nuts. Just try to explain caching in a few words - and see how many nutty looks you get. Thanks for the cache - the lucky coins came out in a geocaching kids hand and we put a teddy bear and some games in . Dropped off a travel bug.

My first find on my dark side cycling cache day.

TFTC

In Brissy for a caching blitz with Steeba and Big Matt. Found it after a short search, it was nearing time to head back to the airport.
Thanks
