I came past this evening to pick up something from a shop nearby, and with the nearby Used 2B church out of action, I made the walk up to this one. My parents live nearby here, so it's a location that I frequently pass, but given the lack of proximity to parking spots and high muggle traffic, has never been a quick find to do.
Just before knock off time at 5:00 p.m., the area was already heavy with traffic. I looked in a few places for a typical cache, and spotted something that was just different from its neighbours. Very very clever indeed, and I gave the updated traditional cache a Favourite Point!
Note that I visited the updated traditional cache GC81457 *Screw Loose*. Awesome awesome!

Have wanted to stop for this cache for a long time. We drive past it everyday on the way to work. Today we were travelling separately so I decided that today was the day, thinking it would be easier in day light rather than the darkness we have been driving in through winter. I'd scouted a good parking spot a few weeks ago. Easily found the odd one out but needed some dexterous finger work to get to the log book. Only some tiny spots left on the paper, but managed to squeeze in a m&h. TFTC very clever container(s) and I left with a big smile on my face, this is what caching is all about.
I’ve been driving past this one on many occasions and never stopped to look. Today I thought I should fix that, and on my way home I did just that. I poked around, and was having troubles seeing anything, so decided to do a PAF, the as per usual when I do that, I found it before the PAF answered. Had a nice chat anyway.
Thanks for the cache FLIPPER&CO. Found on 31 Oct 2017 at 4:36 pm. Find #5446.

Found with a muggle friend that I'm trying to corrupt into geocaching. Thought this would be a good example and I was right.
As per earlier entries, log is a bit full.
Thanks FLIPPER&CO

Found on my third visit after getting some help. Knowing what to look for spotted it from across the road. Unfortunately I could not undo the second section of the cache to sign the log. Looks like it has been screwed in too far. TFTC
Cache # 1528.
This morning, I went to Everard Park for business. After that, I noticed there is a cache within walking distance, so I had a try.
Walked to GZ. It was a bit raining. Checked some spots, but no cache. When I about to give up, I noticed something odd. That must be it! Great idea!
In the cache container, there is a log sheet. Hold on a second, there's another container in the outer container, which contains a relatively new log sheet. I signed that one.
Thanks for the "Come ... with Me" cache series, FLIPPER&CO.

Waking into the city today a decided I'd grab a cache or 2 as I did. This was my first pit stop... The odd man out was found dead quickly and easily, but as I paused for signing duties I got a couple of those 'whafs that odd person doing there's glances from a few of the passing motorists.... Not that they were stopping to do D out of course so I went about my business like Noone was watching. As noted by a previous finder the attendance sheet is full but I managed to squeeze the date and an MK into a wee blank space. Thanks for the find. Fav point added coz I like a decent urban find and I have been stingy of late
out with getnict for a few caches after work. well themed cache found here. Log was full on both sides so stamped in the middle of the log roll above where some one dated their find. fav point.
TFTC. No tool required today, although I did come prepared. Have been meaning to get this one for some time now
Staying nearby for the weekend and ended up walking past this one. Spotted it but it was way too tight to open without any tools
Despite the lateness of the day I made my way to gz after work and after parking nearby I made a short walk to the cache. With the added bonus of wearing high vis I was able to look a lot less suspicious and search gz without raising suspicion. A quick scan of gz and the odd one spotted. The cache was in hand and with the log signed I was on my way.

hevwalker & I were caching the Eastern suburbs on Australia Day, followed by an event that evening.
Finding a handy car park we proceeded to gz. Not finding any obvious we kept searching the nearby traffic structures.
Still nothing appeared, still if I had read the description we would of got there sooner.
Trusting the coordinates I had a closer look, with a team effort approach we found a cache.
Pretty clever! Thanks for bringing us here & for the Munzee Flipper & CO

Out & about with clare007 after I finished a short shift at work...best time to do high muggle area caches...a public holiday...less traffic...we searched in the usual places...then clare read the description, properly...bingo!! No tool required here today...TFTC FLIPPER&CO
Great find with Pony1966 on the way to NYE celebrations - definitely worth a fave point. TFTC
TFTC geocaching with SwagHo. We are discovering Australia one cache at a time. Holidaying from Canada having great time
That was a good one and very creative. Holiday Greetings from the Canadian geocachers, here with HennyGeo in amazing Australia . TFTC.
We were so pleased to find this clever one after our least successful caching day. We didnt feel quite so conspicuous as we slowly looked around on our pushbikes. Thanks for all the effort you went to so have a fave point! TFTC.
As I walked up to GZ I saw what I thought was the cache. I tried unsuccessfully to open it. Hmmm.
Got out my phone and read the hint again. Hmmm.
Went back to the suspected cache and tried a second time. Aha! [^]
Signed the log as I watched the traffic flow by underneath me.
Now back to the car.
Thanks for a clever cache FLIPPER&CO.

Found with vj1187. Took a while but were helped by past comments. A clever hide. TFTC
Found this with Aprikot, This was very well engineered. liked it but was able to follow the trhead of your clues. TFTC, SL
In failing light and developing peak hour traffic, I had one last chance to grab a cache I'd been eyeing off online for the last week or so, it being so close to home I just HAD to try for it [:p] I saw what I reckon was it before i went for it so i parked the bike up near GZ as to sort of cover me somewhat and pretended to be looking at a "Problem" with the bike whilst I tried for it. Shortly my name was in the log book whilst i was very stealthy with all those passing motorist muggles. Signed at 17:10 on "Friday The 13th!" of May 2016, didn't see any Black Cats lol A definante favourite point for this cache TFTC FLIPPER&CO
Definitely found the right spot, no log in sight though. Sorry no paper on us tonight,happy for pm for debts if req. Great hide. Can definitely see from a distance if you know what you're looking for. TFTC
Found It!
After a bit of wandering around I spotted this well hidden cache! But technically it is a PM only nano cache which does make it the root of all evil...
TFTC anyway

Found on the annual Xmas Cache Hunt. It didn't seem like a good idea to head for the hills this year so a short list of highly favourited caches in the city and beyond was drawn up and almost strictly held too.
Thanks for the cache FLIPPER&CO

Parked close by then off with my clip board and number clicker. Fiddled around with things briefly until i discovered this clever piece of engineering. Didn't require the use of allen but could access what I required with whst i had at hand. What a wonderful cache. Thanks FLIPPER&CO for the adventure.
This one had us scratching our heads for a bit, but the penny soon dropped and the log was signed! So cool and well worth our time! Def worth a fav point! Tftc
Oh my! Have another favourite point. Middle of the day lots of traffic to have staring at us hah. Took a bit. Awesome clue. TFTC SL
After spending night in Adelaide and attending a couple events then to do that awful job taxing done this morning . So on way back through to go do a little shopping grab this one on the way past. TFTC
Figured this one out a while ago but didn't confirm it until today. A fabulous hide, thank you Flipper&co.
Found on the way back from Freddo's event in North Adelaide. Very clever hide! TFTC

After poking around the wrong spot for a few minutes I moved my search elsewhere and saw something that looked a bit unusual. And sure enough there it was! Definitely a favourite point from me, this one had me amazed! TFTC!
My caching mojo was on fire tonight and I put my hand on the cache almost immediately!
Nicely done, am awarding a favourite.
TFTC FLIPPER&CO!

After a fringe show and dinner with Ismartis we decided to grab a few caches before heading home.
We decided that tonight was as good a time as any to go and get this one.
GPSr spot on and Ismartis made the find. We then needed the help of a special geotool to sign the log.
Cool container and hide...a favourite.

New day, new goal for the “NZ Fun” Team which included Yorkshirekiwi83, Cats&Dragons, Slieschke, Vistra, Funkymunkyzone and me. The 20th of April was all about getting 12 unique caches types or even going beyond the goal and doubling up on 10 of them. Early up having an event close by the cache.
The CO gave us permission to log this cache. Thanks for this!!!

When all else fails have the CO with you : ) as we cruise around getting a few caches we stop at this one, now that's just evil, very clever hide and worthy of a favour point. TFTC
Out with RideTheGeoWalrus for a spot of cache assistance as he needed my geotool to get a cache but then we just somehow didn't seem to manage to stop
Got to love a night where the day's heavy rain holds off and 7 smileys get locus cache'd.
Clever!
I had a pretty good idea of what I might be looking for and sure enough!
Blends in very well though....
Having found it previously, RideTheGeoWalrus leaned against a pole ready to laugh at my search but luckily I had the cache in hand in a few moments.

But...when I went to sign the log is chockers, Found a spot but my spare logs were in the car. Thanks FLIPPER&CO Can the next cahcer please bring a new log.

I'm visiting from New Zealand so it was kinda odd and surprising to see the New Zealand Defence Force art thingo right next to the cache! After a quick search I noticed something out of place. Opening the cache was a bit like a opening those nested Russian dolls!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Sunday afternoon is a safe time to do this one - not much traffic and no other walkers. The animal hospital was busy while I was busy deconstructing the bridge! Couldn't find the log but used the initiative of an ever prepared Seascout and claimed the prize. Great hide for Flipper & Co!
Thought we would have to give this one a miss as we were not sure how to approach but as we got closer we could see it wasn't going to be that hard. Surprising how many people walk across here.
Made a quick find with a sneaky hide. Thanks Flippers

Thanks Timber06 for sharing the Geocaching adventures and making it great fun. A cache during the city to bay?? Why not try anyway. We were ready to opt out if it looked too hard with the muggles-but it was perfectly placed really. A little light rain added to the distractions as we made a rapid find without the GPS, signed the log, replaced and were on our way... Now all we had to do was catch up with the rest of the group. That took a few km. Thanks for the challenge Flipper and co. Great fun doing it this way-and it is sealed in as part of the whole memory of the day..
I don't think I have ever found a cache with so many muggles walking by.
Irac & I did the city to bay with a few people from work & couldn't help but plan to find at least 1 cache along the way. Managed to grab the cache whilst everyone walked by in the rain, sign it quickly & replace before catching up with work mates again. Thanks for a well placed cache FLIPPER&CO.

Nice cammo. It caught my eye as I approached GZ. Shame, I was hoping for a tough one to finish off the day!
Talk about intense muggle location, however, with the light sequence we conquered this beast ! A favourite comming your way Flipper&Co welldone !

well this is definatley one of the best caches I,ve seen. Full credit to FLIPPER&CO for a brilliant camoflaged / clever hide cache. It is difficut to be descreet in this location with such a constant traffic flow.
Did a few laps for this, so i didnt look to sus, with all the peak hour traffic
very nice camo, top spot, great hide.

Found this one surprisingly quicker than I thought I was going to.
It is a very clever hide!
But for me it does raise an interesting question .... when a cache size is specified is it based on the cache size or the log size? ... hmmm.... I wonder???

The hardest part of this was getting a park and then walking to it. A great hide in a busy spot.
Thanks
Thanks
A great little hide!!! Found on a days caching with mogni!!! A definite favourite!!
We looked and looked as the problem with this cache was the traffic. A friendy motorist sang out to keep looking.So we did and found the prize. Thanks FLIPPER&CO
We stood and tried to be invisible, I don't think this was working as I felt that all eyes were on us. OK, lets try and be discreet and look with our eyes, uhm. No it is not there, what did that man in the SES ute say "keep looking", who are you, do you know where it is. More eye looking, ah there it would be, you stand there and hide what I am doing and we can get out of here. SL TFTC
Assuming 2 means double; isn't the opposite of 2 then 1/2. Not sure how this has anything to do with the cache. Thought I was screwed until my superior maths skills made short work of the subtle difference. I was merely surveying the traffic to ensure that I wasn't spotted in the act. TFTC FLIPPER&CO.
