Now I know why we couldn't find it [:i][:i] was using an old pocket query and it still said the cache was active. DOH
Wasn't a wasted visit as we watched the plane having a mock battle from the cache site.
Cheers M+S [:O)]

Couldn't find even with clue - there were a number of likely spots - however the 5 DNFs and no finds since October - along with logs noting that it was exosed suggests that there may be no cache to find.
Please check!!!

Was raining and this was our first of the day.. We didn't look for too long for this one! Next time!
No luck here found several spots where something could be hidden, but nothing came to hand, clue was of little help to me.
Found the cache out in the open, so rehid it a bit better, but the spot does not offer much cover. These containers aren’t watertight, so the log is completely saturated. TFTC.
No 11 for the day. Log book was totally soaked. Might want to go swap it out. TFTC
Didn’t know whether or not I was going up or going down, seems like going up was the easiest option for me, TFTC TNLNSL (952)
Clever hide with excellent camo.
I had a little poke around the abandoned factory across the way.

This one blended in so well with the hide. Took a couple of prods before being convinced the cache was there.
After ending up in the naval base after error in Google Maps. Drove back to the road. When we arrived was a quick and easy find.
Sneaky little hide in a pleasant walkway but stealth was required as a few muggles around T4TC.
Had no idea this was here! Out for a few caches with Kayaknkiwi and Indiana Jill. Quick find. TNLN. TFTC!
Thanks for your thoughtful placement and contribution to our caching adventures. Lifting the standard of cache hides keeps the challenges coming. TFTC.
Off for an afternoon adventure with Indiana Jill and Seattle's Best. Parked up and off we went. Nice little walk. No problems at GZ. Thanks for bringing us here! TFTC! Log sheet full, we left some paper. Thanks.
No problems at GZ, although cache a little exposed. Tried to cover a bit better. Log full as noted. TFTC, Biggles.
Quick find, last one before I hd to go back (to work ).
Logbook is a bit damp and full.
Didn't had a spare one for this type of container.

Took us 20 mins to find it. Great find. well hidden. We looked under the bridge and up the trees!!! Kids really enjoyed their first hunt. Thanks.
Nice place. Was sitting on step just about to fill things in when just about got muggled. Very concerned runner thought I was puffed from walking but passed it off saying I was looking at a message on mobile. TFTC.
No problems finding cache just retrieving it. Had to wait for a Muggle, and another, and another, and another, and another, and another. thank fully none came while I had cache open. TFTC
No problems with this one. Quick park, quick going up, quick find, quick log, quick going down.

Attempted from the "going down" side, as there was parking, but alas, was unable to get near gz as neighbouring muggles were gardening in the vacinity. So a few caches later we returned from the "going up" side to avoid being spotted in case the gardeners were still out and about. They were nowhere in sight this time and within 60secs I had retrieved cache and returned to car. #8 today. TNLNSL TFTC
Run past this spot many a time, and am glad there's a cache here now. TNLNSL. Cheers.

A quick find going down, as there was no convenient parking spot for us going up.

Back for a tidy up of the area.
Quick find. Bit worried about the damp getting into this one.

Nice little cache as the first of three during a lunch-time MTB ride. Last year I had most of the Caches in this area covered, but it is good to see new ones appearing. TFTC
Easy find on a quiet Wednesday morning. Some moisture has made its way inside of the cache and will soon begin to detoriate logbook, which is without protective plastic bag. Colored pencils are not good for signing logs. You cannot keep your handwriting small when writing with those.
Couldn't find a park to go up, so came down instead. Log already damp, these containers are not really waterproof.

Quick find, but a cunning little hide. Hope the container keeps the water out though. TFTC!
