Went to look for this one today and all I found were what would have been contents of cache - no container and no logbook. It looks like and area that kids might play in as the area underneath was dry.
Came to GZ, found alot of the things that points to this cache being muggled, check picture.
found little horrbiles "LittleHorrible has found this cache" pencil, broken glass and obviously some swaps.
Might need to replace

Found it after visting the museum. Left our travel bug, Bear&Bird, to start its journey
Took too long to find; made it more difficult than it was. Took Tb for a trip around the museum.
Found it after re-reading the hint. Lack of punctuation threw us initially! V chilly morning after a pleasant meander around the air force museum. TFTC
Dropped TB "Show me the light"

176 - Out with Pokernet this morning and this was on our way to Prebbleton. A nice wee park. We could have sat and written a letter but we chose to look for the cache instead, this will just have to suffice! The cache is in place and dry. TFTC
Few muggles playing Footy but the hide is nicely camouflaged behind a wee hill. TFTC
FOund as part of a predawn raid. We had the place to ourselves, no other cars, walkers joggers etc. had to get the torch out for the search. After looking in a few places we found it. It was certainly well covered in leaves in its hidy hole. SL and repalced. Now off to get another.

I looked for this cache 2 years ago but didn't find it. Today it was a quick find. The cache description needs updating though as the cache is a large Systema box not a glass jar. TNLN TFTC ds8300

Make sure you allow enough time for a look through the museum while you're here! Cheers.
Nice quick lunchtime grab - but putting it back was harder a muggles came to roll down the hill close by.
After visiting the Aircraft Museum MerleLutz and I thought it is a good idea to take this cache as it is nearby. It was a nice location, but we did not get the meaning of the cache title ?

i can t understand, what the title of the Cache has to do with it, but it was a Nice hide. TFTC
Great little cache thanks. Ended up having to avoid every man and his dog literally as must have timed it for when all the dog walkers were out and about. Nice day for a walk

I dropped the GeoYounglings off at an event at the Air Force Museum this morning (school holidays and all), and then took a leisurely ride to this one. Very nice park, and the cache is in good shape.
SL/TFTC!

A quick drive by on a Friday evening after dinner caching expedition. TNLN, TFTC.
Lovely tree lined spot. Sat in the shade and watched the acrobats from the model planes whizzing overhead. Left Homer to enjoy the spot, took Geocoin.
After a couple or nearby DNF's it was nice to find one where it should be. TFTC
Couldn't find it the first visit today.... saw someone found it... so just had to come back... I don't know how I missed it first time! TFTC
Done! Easy found on the first New Year's day. IN: TB. Thanks and greetings from Latvia!
Nice easy find. Never knew this park even existed...spent some time here today on a cool 2010 Boxing Day.

Nice quick find on an evenings outting with nonsleepy wee dudes. Nearby steep embankment a hoot to race down (when you are 3 and in your jarmies!)
Had fun introducing new people to this. A real girlie trade swapping lip gloss for fluro pink nail varnish!
Late night caching in the dark is terrifying!!!! Nice easy find with the hint. TFTC!
Found with my daughter while waiting to pick up my son from a birthday party at Chipmunks. didn't think it was the cache to start with (glass container?). no trades TFTC
On our first outing, we located this cach. Removed a bracelet, replaced with pink nail polish. Young daughter very happy.
