Checked the cache and it has indeed been muggled, thanks Merkuri for letting me know.

This is not the first time it's been muggled and unfortunately, once it's been discovered by the wrong sort of person they often return to have another go at it. The cache has been around for 7 years, which is a pretty good run, so I have decided to archive it.

cache disabled until I can check on it

Came after dark, counted the objects and set off to GZ.

Pretty sure this has been muggled, I found the obvious hiding spot that matched the hint, there were a few recently discarded alcohol cans around, so I think the cache may have fallen victim to a secret drinking session.

Can the CO please check it is still there or not?

A quick find fortunately. I've had a few dnfs this arvo and don't like to close the day with one. Looks like a teen muggle has found the cache and written a few 4 letter words of encouragement I tucked it away from view before leaving. Tftc

Find #823 (Multi March #27)

Geobaby and I had picked up the info for this last week but didn't make it to GZ. This week on the way back from picking up some solved puzzles further south we stopped by early evening. The area was busy with sporty trainers but not where we wanted to look. Checked one wrong spot close by but then the cache was in hand. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited a couple of TBs. Thanks for the cache squalid. I'm pleased I was able to grab this one towards my self imposed Multi March challenge (31 multi cache in the 31 days of March).

Suscoe's 12th find of 32 for today as we wandered this area in the very good company of our mate Bushfire.
An early start from home got us here in good time and a beaut day emerged with lots of sun and a pleasant breeze blowing in from Port Phillip Bay.
A delightful break from the tyraditionals with this multi.
Did the numbers and then enjoyed the trip to GZ.
What a splendid park and recreation area.
Some one has left their bean bag near GZ.
Thanks to squalid for creating this multi showing this area.

After a lot of planning it was decided that we would attempt to find all the caches between the Mordialloc Creek and the Patterson River today which we archived with the exception of one where diners were sitting a couple of metres from GZ and were watching what we were up to.
Leaving Geelong at 7.30 we were caching up here with my good caching buddies the suscoe's an hour and a half later. As Ross has stated this was our twelfth find and we ended up with 32 finds for the day and no DNF's except for the one we decided to give a miss to as described above.
Well the second find by this cache owner and our second multi for the day so after gathering the required numbers it was off for a wander across the oval where the local cricketers were sorting themselves out before play.
At GZ we not only found the cache but a folding chair and a comfy looking bean bag.
On our way back to the geomobile we noticed the wonderful turf that was on the oval.
Thanks again for showing us an area that we had not been to before.

After being a hero and rushing the calculations I reread the brief and was on the way. Awesome hide and nice parks for the kids although a couple of trees blown over with the nasty winds from earlier this week. Tftc

This cache took no effort at all as we were with a previous finder. Here in the company of quiet1_au and GJMMelb today. TFTC

Out caching with Lochb and Quiet1_au. Found this with help from Q who had previously found it. Thanks squalid
GJMMelb

Cool puzzle for the kids and great hiding place. TFTC.

Today I headed out to grab another cache to fill in a calendar day for my P366 challenge and since I was on holidays this week anyway I continued on along the coast until the rain showers started after lunch and then I headed to Chadstone for some shopping. It was pretty cold but still managed to find things pretty well today with a low muggle count due to the cold.
Last time I was here the cache had been muggled so today I returned to a deserted oval (see photo) and made a nice simple find in exactly where I looked last time. I smartly managed to park much closer today since I knew where to look though.
Thanks squalid for the cache, the hunt and the fun.

Picked up the clues to this one on the way to Berry Fitness for a Saturday morning session. Got the coordinates together and found on the way home. Couldn't of done this if there was footy on. Took the Geo coin. TFTC

Why anyone would take the original cache beats me, but it has now been replaced. Good to go.

Disabled until I can get to it and check whether it's still there

My wife took the kids out for a few hours today so I was on my own so a perfect opportunity to find some caches and not get distracted by the kids park near each one. This area is a little bit too far for a lunch time run from work so that's why I chose this area today.
There was no one around here today so gathering the clues was nice and easy. I then had a short walk and found the location matching the hint really well but couldn't find the cache. Probably just me not looking properly, I'll keep a watch on it.
Thanks squalid for the cache, the hunt and the fun.

On our quest for a cache a day until we stop because we decide to this cache was a maybe but turned out all good. I gathered the clues thanks to no one around and made my way to the cache GZ.
At first I thought i may have got it wrong and with my maths ability that is easy. Fortunately after a bit of a search the cache was found and it was high fives to myself.
Our thanks to Squalid for the cache.

Nice area to visit on a great day.
Found with Bugz11.
Took eraser, left wristband.

Pretty location and very quiet. Found with Lizmo 22.

Cant believe this multi didn't have a visitor for 5 months!! Ticked off a couple of things with this cache today whilst on my lunch. Got my 13th Aug souvenir and dropped off the "Travelling T" Geokrety. Hopefully this will excite someone to visit the cache and grab the trackable!! TFTC

No muggles about GZ, once all the calculations were done it was only a short walk to cache hiding place. Good cache. SL.
TFTC, Merann.

All quiet so an easy run to the GZ where we found thousands of plague Soldier Beetles on everything- except the cache. We thought perhaps the GZ might have ended up at a swanky hotel!

TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt squalid.

Finally got this one after a few failed searches last year!

Tried a few times for this one without much luck. Finally got lucky after getting a better chance to poke around thanks to minimal muggle activity. TFTC

On my way home from a swim and thought I would pick up a cache. Thanks for this cache nicely tucked away. TNLNSL

Hooray!! First find in the company of sir j in a long time! Fun little exercise to find the coordinates and nice little hiding spot indeed. It was quite visible once we got around to it so covered it up better.
I yawned as i walked into a web. It was a bulls eye right into the middle of my mouth.. yuck yuck yuck!! Close ur mouth when hunting for this.. charlotte has plenty of branches to set traps! Tftc!

Found @ 03:00 with Miss Raven. After a puzzle and some trads, we came looking for a multi to give Miss Raven a collection of different types for today (even though we grabbed another multi before midnight).
Miss Raven did the counting and I did the coordinates. A pleasant wander to GZ and Miss Raven made the find while I was looking elsewhere.
Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables.
Thanks for the cache Squalid.

Nice hide. Got it on 2nd attempt. Chickened out the first time because of someone using the area at 10pm on a weeknight (haven't they got something better to do than be walking through a park late at night

dropped in after coffee at the beach nice easy great hide thanks

After a dismal fail in the darkness last time which led to my posting a Needs Maintenance check I was pleased to see this one active again - but disappointed to see I had missed last time (sorry squalid for unnecessary trip I caused) Today I headed down to GZ again to see if I could work out what I missed, and at the familiar spot I noticed something that was all but invisible at night (with carefully shielded torchlight) and success! the little black cache was revealed. Finding the (replacement) logbook fresh and clean I happily stamped it and noticing a new squalid pathtag I wandered back to the car to grab one of my own to swap for it and then carefully rehid the elusive cache again. TFTC and another neat pathtag for the collection - and some more "unloved" cache days

Checked it out about a week ago and the cache was still there. Replaced it with a clean new one with a new log book and swaps.

It sounds as though the cache may have gone missing - disabled until I can check

Got the clues, headed to the co-ords, had a good look but I couldn't find anything unfortunately
It's a shame because I live so close to it.

Had a good look

Found this one. Thanks Squalid!

find 13 of 18 for the day. a nice walk in a nice park. put in a peg and cactus.

TFTC

A few muggles around, but nice cache. Team let me down this morning, choosing to stay home, which was a real shame as I think the girls would have loved a play at the park.
SL, TFTC

cut my knee open before starting to find it

Another multi that has been annoying my coastline has now been replaced with a smiley.
I quickly gathered the clues tonight, vowing to return with my kids, and then made a quick dash for the cache. A quick and easy find. TFTC

Just logging my personal name tag to track my personal distance traveled.

TFTC. Dogs enjoyed the walk while finding this cache.

Found on a night caching run. TFTC. SL.

OMG
Made an error with the Math. We ended up where we should not have hee hee. We quickly corrected the silly error & soon had the Cache in hand. Found @ 18.45

P.S......This is my 200th Cache

Nice find
Thanks for this fun game and cache

The maths was easier than it first appeared. thanks for the cache.

1st Cache found ever. Always go to this park with my little girl, she was very excited to find the treasure (wanted to take it home!). looking forward to finding more.

2.44PM

What a great little area. I grabbed lunch from a nearby fish and chip shop and sat in the shade behind the scout(??) hall. I then spotted the playground that I needed for clues to GZ. Quickly calculated final GZ and went for a walk. The Oval had a game of local cricket being played, so I waited in the shade for a while, then just as the ball was being bowled, I went into hiding and was able to find the cache without too much difficulty.

Thanks squalid for a well set out cache.

TNLN

Our first find for today, seems this one was found on the 10th by a muggle who kindly returned it after having a look at the website (see photo of their log).
TNLNSL and added some extra cover as the cache was exposed on arrival.
The kids had fun using WP1 whilst we split up for GZ.
Thanks for the cache squalid

25-12 9th find of the day at 13:50 and 1202nd find in total.
Imagine trying to do this one on a day that was even slightly busy, we were glad we didn't have to!
The hardest part of the cache was when we were half way across the oval and the sprinklers came on...
(''\(OoO)/'') Thanks squalid for the caching fun!

On a lovely day before christmas, what better way to spend it than out caching! This was number 2/7 for the day. Easy find. Nice park. TFTC and [blue] Merry Christmas! [/blue]

Note to: [GEO] Vezza937 who attempted to find this cache today - please email me so I can give you the information. I could not find your name anywhere on this site, and could not therefore email you back. Love squalid.

Found it and got a nice surprise when I opened it. Waldo the Wombat was there and is now on his way up to the Sunshine Coast Queensland!

Thanks squalid, but I figured it out...took me long enough!
Was an epic find (my first one!) with a joint effort from AliceHoltens and RubyHolten.
Found Waldo and he's now continuing his journey...
Thanks so much for an awesome cache! :D:D

Nice easy find in a cute park, our last in Australia. Dropped off our travel bug Waldo the Wombat - he's off on his adventures!

Found relatively easily after we rechecked our calculations. Got from strange looks from a dog walker. TFTC

Found with Zippi_Russ at 13:54.
Came to the park and counted and got a reasonable set of co-ordinates.
Went as far as we could go but still had some more distance to go. Hmmm..
Re-checking the co-ordinates, I think I had a case of dyslexia when reading them out. Oops.
Luckily, it was a very short distance away.
I think we surprised a dog walker popping out from behind some trees. Heh. Nice hiding spot though!
Thanks again Squalid.

Find # 483 Found @ 2000Hrs

Found on my way home form work this one has been on my To-Do list for so long.
Well i now crossed it off that To-Do list.
after getting the required numbers it was a nice stroll to GZ to find i nicly hidden Cache in the first place i looked due to a good set of Coords.

Took: TB

Easy find at 22:35 after plugging the numbers in.. quiet park at this time of night.. I didn't look around too much at GZ as finding huntsmans has been a recurring problem for me and this place here felt very likely.. TNLN SL TFTC Squalid.. Find #471

#54 - We couldn't believe how quiet it was there today! Saturday.. and a beautiful sunny day! There was absolutely no one about, other than some tennis playing muggles. I sat in the car taking photos as Mr.P found the cache. Woohoo!!!!
Left a TB.

Nobody about today except a lone dog walker who we nearly scared half to death by an untimely emergence from the undergrowth. Luckily Snake had is eyes on and we ducked out unnoticed.

quick find on a cold and wet day out TFTC TNLN SL

Everlasting n I have a rest same time work out with this puzzle. We work out. Found it. TFTC

Crank1 doing all homework while just I count the question. Good fun. and we walk along to the GZ. Good hide spot. SL. Thanks Squalid

A nice multi to finish a good days caching.
No kids in the playround today.
Made the calcs easily and headed over to GZ.
Noone at GZ either and to make things even better I picked up a GC.
Cheers and happy caching.

Spent this very windy afternoon caching with my oldest boy. After TJ and I played on the equipment we got the required clues and numbers and headed over to GZ. Found the cache and dropped off the Emu Geocoin. TFTC.

full of cheer they were. TFTC

Arrived at WP1 to be swarmed by Lorikeets that came to be fed by one of the local Muggles.
Grabbed the info and headed to the GZ only to discover dog walking muggles all over the place.

Waited until it was clear and dashed to grab the cache.


TNLNSL
TFTC

Thanks for the cache, quite like these counting this and that caches.
Nice area, remarkably easy to get muggle free.

I thought I'd grab the clues as I was passing, but I stopped and grabbed the cache as well. I was initially a bit worried that my calculated co-ords put the cache somewhere where I hoped it woudn't be. But following the GPS took me straight to it.
TNLN, TFTC Squalid.

What a maze to get into this place, well it was the way my geodaughter took us!! A nice easy multi. TFTC

Found @ 1.50pm. This is our first multi-cache find, we picked a great day to do it as well, with no one in the park or playing cricket on the oval. After checking the coordinates and the hint we were able to find the cache within a couple minutes. TNLN. TFTC.

I arrived at the posted coords to find a young mum and her kids playing and I tend to get a bit shy about caching in these sorts of situations. For them to have a strange person wandering around must be a little unsettling so I grabbed the clues as best I could from the car. I quickly ammended one digit when I realied it wouldn't work and strolled off to the cache. I thought I might have to go fence climbing but for some reason the coordinates suddenly kicked in and I was 2m from the cache - yay!

A lovely little area and I'm thankful the cache wasn't near the playground.

Cheers,

R - B

Found @ 1800.

Found with ggkof on our usual Tuesday night caching conundrum. He had found this before, so stood back and watched. No probs with the clues and off to GZ for an easy find.

Found 14:05, in the comapny of Muzza, a nice quick find in a pleasant piece of parkland.

TNLN, CSI=2, thanks Squalid.

This was a nice multi to do on a quiet day. Thankfully the playground was deserted so I didn't look dodgy hanging around it. I felt like having a kick of the footy afterwards, but had no ball and nobody to kick with! Thanks.

The weather was far to good just to simply head home after work, So i looked for a few Multi's in the area and was pleasently rewarded as the park only had a Muggle though near the Gz they were distracted by a roaming Geo dog. I had the time to quickly sign the log and rehide the cache without being spotted.
TFTC SL

We collected the information a couple of months ago but all the sporting facilities were being very well used so we decided to leave it rather than risk compromising gz. We came back today but although there were a few muggles around the area required was deserted. The cache was located after about a five minute search
Took the Tb
Thanks Squalid for the cache

Found by HGCore... Nice hide - seems obvious but still a challenge! TNLN. TFTC.

Found @ 1300 with my 4yo geodaughter. She had a quick play in the park, I gathered the info and we moved on to GZ for a quick find. Would certainly be hard on a Saturday arvo if footy or cricket was being played.

Fairly easy multi to figure out, but very good hide in a nice area, perhaps could have been a bit larger though... TNLN/SL TFTC =)

Thought we had the coordinates wrong for a minute, was a little bit of a walk, but found it. TFTC

Well there were muggle kiteflyers, muggle tree climbers, muggle dog walkers and us. EB Nano said I can't go there, I'll race you to the playground instead. So after a play and the muggles had moved on a bit, we solved the clue and headed for the hide. On getting to the middle of the oval, we decided to recalculate the clue.Opppps.New co-ords and finally we had cache in hand. Thanks for the hide. EB Chief out

It was a week day & there were still muggles everywhere. Had to re-enter the co-ords as we seemed to arrive at GZ in the middle of the oval. Hmm, when in doubt go back to your facts! Take 2 went much better. TNLN SL TFTC

Easy find. Nice little park.

Clue had me looking at different centres, nice easy multi calcs, Thanks again-SQUALID for bringing me here.

Returned to find this one in the daylight. Attempted a night visit but warned off by what appeared to be a possum! Not the bravest person around!

Got this one on the second try after finding a football game in progress on the first one. TFTC

Found by Mary & David at 1620. Easy maths. Amazed by the number of lorikeets here. A local woman explained that the man in the corner house puts food out for them. Enjoyed the walk to GZ for a quick find. Our thanks to Squalid.

As we guided the Bentley in through the marble archway and up the Italian slate driveway, we were greeted by Jeeves who bid us a "good aaaaaahhhhhh-fternoon" and held the door for us we alighted.

"How would you like your cache sir?" he enquired.
"Nice and quick with a dash of stealth...as usual"

"Ah...but that how it always is...at The Regent"

Definitely a 5-star hide...good show ol' (well, not *that* ol') chaps. Hip Hip Hooray...pip pip...eh what?

Tally ho!

Lovely little spot on a beautiful Sunday morning
TNLN TFTH Squalid

Beautiful Sunday activity. Lots of fun. As it was our first Geocache, we looked in the wrong place at first. It was a valuable lesson to learn that our iPhone's GPS coordinates are pretty much spot on, and we should not deviate.

Found @ 9:40. This one has been sitting in my system for a while now and is the only one in the area I haven't done. Today I happened to be in the area between jobs so made the small diversion to clear the area again. Clues gathered OK and GZ spot on for a quick find. TFTC
