IS THIS BACK YET?

i will get this cache back up and running as soon as i can

Wall is a bit stuffed, owner might need to replace this one.

No luck today. The end of the wall has collapsed a bit with rocks on the road indeed, but no cache.

Have tried to find this many times and have watched others try and find it too but to no avail, could the owners please confirm this is still here. Thanks

Felt uncomfortable searching in the open with houses so close - however after about 20 minutes on and off (when cars or people were around) Found it. SL TFTC

Scratched my arm and came out in a rash from the bush.

Felt pretty exposed doing this one in such a quiet street, but managed it no problems. Cheers!

Had my bike so found cache and went back to the park to fill in the log. Rode back and returned to site. Felt strange in such a residental area Thanks

I don't know what the neighbours thought lol .tftc/tnln

Found it today on our tour in and around Christchurch.

Very clever hide. Found reasonably easily in the dark. TFTC. Nice evening stroll to find this!

Well hidden, but not too difficult. TFTC

Quick easy find on our 2nd trip here after the first when there were too many muggles around, TFTC

Had to hang around for a couple of muggle cars to leave, but the cache was quickly found in the rain.

Cheers.

Quick find by one of Learner Turner crew who were hunting with us today. TFTC

looked in the wrong place to start with but found in the end.TFTC

Easy find by Yeetrees while I was busy looking at the rocks on the road.

Found with YuGeo4, a very easy find once I was at the correct end. TFTC TNLNSL (1467)

Hmmm....I think this cache is well outside the placement guidelines from Geocaching.

First place I looked, if only they were all found this easily. TFTC

Second time back here,as there were too many muggles about,so at long last on a cold day we grabed it.A great wee hidey hole.TFTC.

A quick find, thanks to the hint. TFTC

Found easily with simpsonsrgr8
TFTC

Quick find.

TFTC

Nice shaped garden. TFTC

I can understand why someone would have trouble making a u-turn around the rocks. Found while cycling on a Saturday morning. Cheers!

Interesting structure to put in the middle of an intersection but ideal for cache hiding. Did feel a little bit exposed but found quickly. TFTC

Talk about searcher's luck. The cache was in the first place I looked. Went for a walk up the road to sign the log in a less conspicuous public place before returning and replacing the cache.

Whoooooooo hoooooooooooo.......... finally a cache that didnt take me more than an hour to scurry around to find... exhilerating.... THANK YOU............. returned exactly as it was found.... thanks

Found it

Nice wee road, the park nearby looks like great fun for kids. TFTC

Nice easy find; prickles removed easily and blood dried quickly. Glad I took the mini-Geos to look for this one.
Thanks

found it after a little looking

Last for the day TFTC (522)

A nice easy find after work today. You do feel a bit exposed with the houses all so close.. Cheers Bo

No real prickles - nice quick find on way to airport

My wife and I found this after a bit of looking and getting pricked a few times. Nice spot. Thanks.

Last one of the night. A nice quick find, big yawn, then home to bed. TFTC

Wow, lucky enough to start my search in exactly the right spot so a very quick find. TNLN Thanks.

Lucky to stop to read the notes in just the right spot. Not a place to stop for long.

1800th cache
But, not a favourite for us, due to the prickly plant, having to remove things we shouldn't and the sharp staple in the log book.

Prickles not required - if you're getting pricked, you're not looking in the right spot.

Bit perplexed by this cache really. With such a nice wee park down the road, what is so special about this road intersection - what experience did you seek to give me by bringing me here?

Still, easy find and another smiley face in Hornby on my geomap.

Found it while driving from Queenstown to ChCh on our honeymoon.
1 of 20 today! TFTC

Didn't realise until we got to the street but this is right opposite my aunty's house! She wasn't home today though. How long has this been here right under our noses without us knowing... A quick find, thanks!

Wife shopping me Caching

Quick find by Mr TT whilst Mrs TT was away beating the Australians at the orienteering challenge. TFTC

quick and easy find TFTC

No probs here, interesting area.

Prickly type of bush, fun to do.

TFTC

Our first find - thanks, children loved the hunt!

My 100th Cache found early Christmas morning. Easy find. TFTC

Nice easy find with miss 9 on a christmas eve walk TFTC

We do not like those prickly trees but we found it. TFTC

knocked this one over on saturday , quick easy find , took a small downs boy with us , trying to get his parents to start geocaching , he loved it.
Cheers

Thanks for this one. - Aslan*

A couple of muggles to avoid but no real problems - thanks.

A last minute stop to find a cache. TFTC TNLN

Too close to leave again today on my way past. Nice easy find so was on my way soon enough TFTC

A quick by B here in the early afternoon. Too hot for the locals to be out and about. TFTC

Found easily nice spot.

Gps is working well today. Quick find

Well, wasn't that a prickly experience. Calling past at dusk it was too much to resist, Had tried this on the day of the listing, but the rubbish collection and a neighbour perring out their window expanded the time for the find to greater than was available, so it was nice to grab it this time. TFTC.

Found with bitsprayer and ernienz

Ended up approximately in this area of town when trying to work out bearings for a totally different cache (which we got way wrong and never found) and saw this on the GPS so did a wee detour to get it. We were glad of the find to get us going for the day, as we were there about 7:50am. TNLN TFTC

Nice quick find on our way to the caching event.

Thanks Bitsprayer

Found it easily, nice hide. TFTC.

Quick and easy. Difficult to pull out of the street with such a vision impairment though!

What a good idea for a hiding place, took us into an area we not think of going when traveling through.
Thanks
ernienz

First cache of the day, and a relatively easy find. Cheers Gav [2588]

A nice quick find on our way out of town for the weekend.

Did this one with Moneydork.

#449. Troodles couldn't get the Vitz started this morning, so tonight we had to get the AA guy out to sort it out. Turned out I had left it flooded after moving it in and out of the garage to wash it on Saturday. Needed a run, so off to find our closest to home. Nearly dark when we arrived, so nice and quiet. An easy find. TFTC.

My first cache yaaaaaaay!!! not the last. TFTC

Found with StreetWalkerNZ and Fwankiebutwhy? An easy find under cover of darkness.

Proved to be an easy find once we got there. No one was at the nearby park so we had a blast playing on the flying fox.

2305. We found this cache this morning. Luckily it was a quick find as there was the opportunity for many eyes to be watching!

Thanks
Iris & Rodney

Boy did I feel exposed! Nice find though. TNLN Thank you.

Nice quick find on a trip south from CHCH. Fairly quiet around GZ this morning so had no problems just walking up and grabbing it.
TFTC

That was a very bold hide indeed. Was going to drop in a coin, but it fidnt dit
Cheers and thanks,
S.t.

Yes, it had to be a quick grab, as it was rather exposed. Luckily the location was very obvious. Thanks and cheers from Grandalf(1426)

Quick find in a pretty exposed spot, thanks.

Easy find. Seem to be easily spotted if looking, I returned it as I found it. TFTC

Three FTFs in three days! I love working afternoon shifts!
An easy find - though one muggle must've wondered what the attraction was as she drove past.
