Could be gone - there was no one around so I got a pretty decent look and couldn't see anything
Looks like it's gone, so time to lay this one to rest and free up area for another cache.
Thanks to all who visited.

Catching up on some old logging. Just noticed the date of the last log. Hope it wasn't me that got spotted... Thanks anyway.
Rescued container from under thye snow . Last visiter a tad too enthusiastic with lid, so had to wander back to car and use screw driver ! Log full, so left a new sheet which should keep it going for some time. I put the lid back wrong way round to allow easier open for next visiter.
I was excited to find a Troodles cache that I had not found before. But the excitement waned when I found that no matter what I tried, I could not open the cache container to sign the log. I will have to log with a photo. Cheers Troodles for the cache!
We almost couldn't write on the log because the lid was so tight we struggled to get it off. Muggles around were too preoccupied to notice our quick search.
Found the cache but did not attempt to pick it up - extremely busy here after school and with council gardener near by!
Out here for a friends birthday dinner. Quite late when we left but stopped for a couple lucky caches. No stealth required this late at night (apart from a quick check of shadows)...Quick find. Thanks for the hide, a lovely spot (even in the dark!)...
One inquisitive muggle watching at first, but once gone we found our worm. TFTC
Almost too easy. Amazing that this cache doesn't get discovered by almost anyone. TFTC.
Relatively straightforward at night... had a hell of a time getting the lid off though. Thanks for the fun!
A quick find during a stop and look around in Rangiora this afternoon. Signed log, TFTC!
Another satisfying find, the hunt was made easier with town being so quiet. TFTC
Everyone was out of town by the time we arrived. So, a quick find today, although it could be tricky if it were a regular shopping day. SL. TFTC.
found with eddie3576 and yadaMe

Found this one without the co-ordinates as the laptop attempted to refresh while out and about. We had the info, hints and previous logs to aid in our search......and after a short look about the park we had the cache in hand.
Left a signature eraser and SL. TFTC.

Thanks to Transalpernz for repairing the cache. It was well hidden when I found it.
Found the container but it was in the open and empty... it had been muggled.
We put a page in from out notebook and signed that and hid it though now I've re read the clue it probably still isn't exactly where it is supposed to be.

Lovely location, nice little cache. So simple and so sneaky!!! No others around on a lovely Sunday morning. TFTC.
Very small and well hidden. Felt a bit weird sitting by myself trying to appear nonchalant and not revealing what was there. It would be helpful for subsequent finders not to push the docs far into the tube... Took ages for man size fingers to dig it out
Got this one on a day out in the country, a few muggles around but picked our time and then we signed. TFTHBunch of young thugs on bikes jumping off the steps - it would have just got muggled - so gave it a miss Then stubled across a policeman at the next Cache and it was just the next job he wanted. May not have found the log but took great pleasure in bringing the earth down around them !
Found with Rich. Managed to make the actual retrieval very stealthy but the fact that we sat on about 5 benches in 10 minutes may have made some muggles curious as to what we were up to. TFTC.
Was pretty damp; the Team put in a new page of paper in a new plastic bag. Not many people around right at GZ, nice spot.
TFTC.

This cache was lucky to be still there. The log was outside the container and rather wet. We added a zip-lock bag and a fresh page.
Thanks for the cache Troodles. Hard to grab the cache unobtrusively in this very open Muggle thoroughfare.

Put in new paper.Had a chuckle when realised the significance of the name. Lovely spot. TFTC

(256) Out with good mate freepetrol and after a couple of DNF's came managed to find this one pretty quickly.. TFTC, SL.
Out and about with Broganbunch doing some night caches in rangiora.
Found it just as hint describes. Would be nearly impossible during the day I guess?

Nice quick grab in a convenient civic area.
Just had a bite to eat, now on to a drink and a warm bed.
Thanks Troodles for another!

Cold and raining by now - a far cry from the clear and sunny day just ended but we were still having fun, on our final night in NZ (sob). Thanks for the quick night time find.
I couldn't.didn't see the camera so have no idea if we were in view. However the cache was found, log signed and we were out of there pronto.
Thanks for the cache.

Rated: for Overall Experience
2nd attempt for this one and this time not many muggles around. Finally an easy find.
2/8 on a rainy Saturday afternoon caching with Streetglider Nice hide TFTC (118)
Found quite quickly, but took longer to return to its hiding place due to muggles loitering around! 
Nice One!!!!!!! Neat cache location. Thought that a Sunday afternoon would be muggle free. Not the case. Area was all go. Well done! Thanks
The cache count marches on. Rangiora is our target this morning. Nice area. Enjoyed the cache, thanks.
An easy and discreet find. Find #6 of my geocaching cycle tour of Rangiora. TFTC
Quick find, thanks, especially after two DNFs in a row! Thought I was on an unlucky streak till this one!
Loved the landscaping in the area. Out with Old Boots & Rosie. Quick find then away as drizzle setting in. TFTC
#1591
#1591
#1638 This was found in a second. The town centre has improved since I last visited. TFTC DS8300
Nice easy find on a cold wet cloudy day with the gps struggling to find the spot but eventually spotted a simple clue and there it was!
definitely one to do outside of working hours now knowing the location and the traffic thereabouts. Nice hide.
After 5 mins of searching we finally found it in a very obvious spot, not too many muggles aroudn late in the day. TFTC
