as this one has gone missing again, it is with much sadness that we are now archiving this cache, this now frees up the spot for another cache,
Cheers,

Nice quick find and a well maintained cache. Coordinates were spot on.

This is a really nice little park - I love some of these "hidden gems" that are dotted around Adelaide.

Thanks for the cache and bringing us here Flipper & Co.

In the area hunting down some recently solved puzzles and grabbed this one on the way. This one has been on my hit list for quite a while since I drive nearby fairly often, loved the bust and the piece of local history. TFTC Flipper&Co!

Found about a month ago but lost the notebook I record my finds on, now I have resorted to logging the cache names that I can remember finding, maybe one day I'll find my old notebook and be able to log the ones I can't remember from that caching spree! TFTC!

Tricky little hide.

Had lunch here in the park. Bad mistake, we shared it with millions of ants.

Thanks for the cache

A very nice park! TFTC

An easy find and would have been easier if I were six inches taller TFTC Smile

This park reminded me of David Parkin of Carlton coaching heritage. Man, he was a wild one! TFTC
 
22-Nov-13

With a spare 24 hours in Adelaide I grabbed a hire car and went caching. What else was I to do!

Another late night find.

Cheers
 
27-Aug-13
It was such a beautiful warm night so instead of being couch bums we thought that we would try for some caches Smile We investigated all the other likely spots before we spotted it in another likely spot Smile Thanks FLIPPER&CO
 
27-Aug-13
Decided to pop out with Miss GG tonight and do some caches since it was a lovely night. We checked every spot possible thinking we weren't going to find it... But in the end we came out with the prize Very Happy

Thanks for the cace Flipper&Co Very Happy

Having to be at Netley for training for work for 2 days was a bonus for me as it meant I could stay in an area where I had lots of unfound caches and just cache, cache and cache! Big Grin
Tonight I remained close to Netley for about 5 hours and managed to locus cache 21 caches Smile before heading for home.

I had driven past here earlier today but didn't stop due to muggles sitting right near GZ Sad
After dark, though, there was no one around and a quick find was made.

Owl was early getting Hawk to his course, so decided to try a night cache. Of nervous disposition, she needed it to be in a relatively open position and easy to find by torchlight. This was just what the doctor ordered and it might help mitigate her negative view of night time caching!
 
28-Apr-13
Took some new cachers fir a lap around their general area
First for the day
Thanks for the cache Smile

Greetings from Tasmania

Found this cache while on a caching trip to Adelaide. Found some great caches while there including a 5 difficulty traditional (I'm a Bastard 2), a 4 terrain traditional (Tapleys Bird) and many great hides in great locations through out Adelaide. Thank you Adelaide cachers for planting so many good caches. My wife did ask me to pick a favourite, and I think Besser Block Mail Box would have to be it, by Tamam Shud, Zen and the Art of Geocache Maintenance and the two above would be up there as well.

I did manage to find 250+ caches in the 5 days I had caching in Adelaide, and would like to thank Astro and Freddo for taking me on a night cache on the first day and Astro for giving me a couple of hints on some that I was stuck with.

Let me apologies for the generic log, especially if I have found more than one of your caches.

Quick find with lil brother, getting him interested in geocaching. Willnott is born.
 
23-May-12
Came here about two years ago, but at that stage there was nothing to find due to cache maintenance. Not so this time and a very quick find and sign, coz we knew exactly where to look.

Thanks for the cache,
FLIPPER&CO.

It was ironic that I should venture into this neck of the woods looking for a cache with which to fill my calendar. I have attended my grandmother's funeral this afternoon (a solid innings of 91) and she lived a mere one street over from here. TFTC FLIPPER&CO.

I introduced myself to the big man ( well his torso at least!) . The cache was nastily placed and I had to use my GPS to get to it literally. Thanks for the cache.

A quick find for the tall Stormshaker while we were driving around for the Urban Treasure Rumble. This was not one of the lucky caches to hide a secret - we enjoyed the find and the kids enjoyed the play ground. TFTC Flipper&CO

Reperio at 0745.

With only a few hours left before I had to head to the airport, I went around picking up a few last minute caches. Parked very close to GZ, and quickly had this one found.

Gratias Flipper&Co.

Quick find. On an evening caching on the geobike.

A quick stop on the way home from a work related event at Morphettville. The cache was there, but so were a couple of muggle schoolgirls on skateboards, so I had to look slightly non-threatening and wander about looking at my "phone" till they passed. But all was good and the box clanked back into place without further attention.

A nice quick find on a very pleasant evening. SL TFTC
