Seems this should be archived due to building work, and confirmation by the last visit from the owner that it was gone.
Also owner hasn't logged on for over 6 months, so it has been disabled for a long time.

The building the cache was on is gone, so it's probably best to archive it. When construction finishes, I'll put something back.
Downloaded this one last year some time, and did not realise it was gone until I got to within 5 metres of it. The local security guard came to kick me out of the car park next to gz, as he was locking it up, so I explained to him what I was doing, and he kindly opened the gate to the construction area so I could have a look, but everything is new here, and I knew it would be gone. At least I managed to enlighten another muggle!
Got back here this morning (was to be our first cache for the day), but there's earthworks going on here and we think the cache is gone or in a construction zone (closest our GPS could get to it was 47m) .
Looking at Google Street View, the last 2 buildings on the left have now been demolished.
Looking at the previous note could have saved us the visit [B)].

! Construction is preventing access to this area on 15-Aug-10. !
Perhaps try another cache until construction is finished.
This didn't stop us from walking around the block, hoping a fence, only to find the GPS signal was weak. Gave up!

In the city looking for einstien and thought we would pick this one up. Used to go clubbing here TFTCSL
A quick stop off in Adelaide for lunch, and time for a quick cache. TNLNSL, TFTC!
I think we were lucky here. The GPS seemed to indicate we should have been looking about 20m away from GZ. I guess that's the problem with lane ways. The cache had been placed so that it was easily spotted from across the street, at least to the trained eye, We replaced it the other way round. Though it should still be quick to spot
I found the construction of the old electrical supply building interesting. The way name is built into the fascia and way the supplier of the downpipes name is stamped into the metal of the pipe.
One of the buildings next to GZ had a notice saying they had closed as the building was going to be replaced. So the street-scape is going to continue to evolve.
We found the log rather damp and full in the intended writing area.
This turned out to be the last SA cache for the trip.
Thanks for bringing us here.

I was down this way on other matters, and can class this find as a bit of multi-tasking.
Cache was easily found, a muggle emerged from the carpark just after my retrieval, wandered around a bit then dissappeared just in time for me to replace the cache.
Thanks for the cache t3h.

So many lunch breaks I have meant to go and find this one... today was the day! Having checked the google map and not having my gps with me, I walked straight up to it and saw it immediately. Had Jeepersberzeipers with me (who has previously found it) in case I got stuck but didn't need any help. The log book is looking really tatty and VERY full. TFTC glad to tick this one off the list.
[B)] This one sucked. Firstly we went the wrong way to get to it, but a nice fella with some keys having a smoke unlocked the gate for us. Our GPS was about 11-17mts out all day, and we searched high and low!
I used the clue and checked all drains, lifted anything metallic and looked like a real weirdo when some muggles came along to take photos.
We had absolutely no luck at all. Maybe it's not there, I dunno. [:(!]

A fairly easy find on a small detour on my way home from work - Not many spots on the log though to put your name, will need replacing soon. TFTC
Logged from my phone using the Geocache Navigator by Trimble. Quick detour , wait for the band to finish packing and got it straight away TFTC may need new log soon.
Good one! The clock's ticking - this building is due for demolition in a few weeks time!
Spent some time looking for this one at night. I made this one harder than it should have been.

Finally back in this part of the city and spotted the cache almost instantly this visit [^]
On the opposite side of the road to where the GPS was pointing again!!
Logsheet is very full and very fragile now.

My first cache found in Australia. Found easily after waiting for a couple of muggles to move on their way. SL TFTC
This was our 3754th overall find.
Found at 8:26 PM. Made a nice quick find of this one tonight with no muggles around
Thanks t3h for the cache.

Easy to find it
Only tricky bit
Was extracting the log from the cache

Found this little one in a shopping break together with mecky75 and joely-ann. Fortunately not to many muggles around, so it was really easy to find and log. TFTC othi

Early morning on a public holiday was the ideal time to finally nab this one. We even got a park. Found very quickly today, previously we'd always concentrated our search on the wrong side of the lane.
Thankfully nobody around while I was in the area this time, so I could busily search the wrong side of the street for the cache. Soon realised there were better hiding places on the other side though!
TNLN - Thanks t3h!

A high muggle area but we managed to retrieve and rreplace the cache without any problem. Thanks t3h
On our short stay in Adelaide with QM2 we found this cache and more. The record shop nearby is very interesting (treasure trove), some records we could find and buy. Thank you for showing this place. The log book is very ragged, exchange make sense. TFTC and many greetings from Germany.
knew where cache was but had to walk away as a few muggles around nearley got reversed over as waiting to do this cache as
chap was standing right next to cache having smoke and chatting on mobile but soon had cache in hand tftc sl
happy caching travel safely

Searched high and low, but no luck. Perhaps better luck next time. Thanks for the hunt.
Found it quickly despite the number of people around during the" Fringe" with "How Do They Know?". Can claim credit for this one. Tnlnsl.
Spent quite a while looking in the underfoot areas at the end of the lane to no avail. There has been heavy rain over the past couple of days and if it was where I think it should be then it may be flushed away with the deluge. I'll keep an eye on this cache in case someone else finds it.
That Market guy must have ants in his pants 'cos he's in & out of the shop every 5 minutes TFT hunt, t3h

One of three quick CBD grabs this afternoon between work and the AC/DC event. Should be home logging weekend find on KI...but instead cleaning up a little bit of the close by urban caches that I let go uncached for a while. Looks like someone from Denmark found this, maybe today, and logged it as found 3-3-10. I found it today and it's actually 2-3-10. Anyway it was put back in such a way it would have been gone soon. A big bright blue, come get me, end of the container sticking out from it's hiding place. I replaced it as intended and shoved it out of sight. Should be there a while now.

Ok, so it wasn't the best idea to take some muggle friends caching while we were in the city on a Saturday night for the Fringe .... but who ever said this was supposed to be easy! Found it quickly enough, just took some time retrieving and returning due to the Fringe venue being 10m away! Got there in the end though! TFTC
Found on a Saturday afternoon city seek.
Simple even though coords get lost. TFTC

Oh MAN.
I spied it last night, but too busy.
I touched it this morning to make sure it was the magnetic at the hidey spot. (It was).
But even at 7 this morning it was too active a place to actually reach it without notice.
6am tomorrow, boy, it's mine!

After a few disapointing visits with no result due to a combination of the bazzar muggle factor and looking in the wrong place, I came back this evening after closing time and had the cache in my hand 10 seconds later. Still had a muggle doing a 3 point turn while I was trying to sign the log (which has had better days and is technically full!) Thanks t3h for the hunt.
hoorah, ted flint's first cache on a nightraid with me, was the only find as we were both ready for home

good spot. GPS had me looking in the wrong place for a bit but suspect buildings were to blame.
was with saggybaggyelephant and got muggled while signing the log... must have looked reeeallly dodgy.

Came at it from the wrong side with Dave as the waypoint is a bit misleading. Would have looked well dodgy to the 2 muggles watching us as we pocketed a tin and walked away.
Later re-placed of course.
Nice hide! TFTC

This one had me a little stumped for a while before I returned back to the first place I looked and realised I just didn't look hard enough at the beginning of the hunt!! TFTC. Interesting laneway
Muggle parked in the lane and endlessly carrying rubbish between the car and the market bazzar. Have to come back another time for this one
Does the owner of the nearby shop do any work. Muggled out of her twice before because of him and nearly again today but in between I managed to retrieve and log this little cache.

Had some info that the city was a ghost town today so it was time to grab some of the more urban caches.
Went to where my GPS said but found it over the other side of the street - even had music to sign the log from next door.

My second visit to the location and the first without the nearby business man present.
The freedom to search was appreciated as it was not were indicated by Google Earth.
A Wotif thought located the well-hidden cache.
Thanks to t3h for the cache.

Find 21 of 50 in a two day caching run around Adelaide.
It sure was warm but I loved tracking down caches.
Thanks for providing fun in my Holidays.
Did this during a night caching run with Skippy.
Hooray found it this time. Walked straight up to it. Dont know how I missed it the first time.

Good hide took a while to get this one as muggle central considering dead end street. Got it though! TFTC
Must be a good hide. It is not where I found it previously and a quick scan did not find the hidey hole.
Well this time the market guy was sitting in his car instead of his shop??? And of course he wouldn't go away!!! With only one hiding place left to check and a bit of stealth I nabbed, signed and replaced as quick as possible! TFTC
I had the same problem as ParrotHead (although I only had 15m to go) - even with the dude from the market coming out to see what I was up to [8)]!
Maybe the weather and buildings are throwing things out?
Looked through the fence, left and right, to see any potential hiding spots, then turned and left, all under the watchful gaze of the market man [B)].
Maybe next time [?].

Went down the lane but with 20 metres to go found my way barred.
Though maybe it was just bad sat loc given the area and had a bit of a scout about.
Bend over to check the bottom of something and when I straightened up there was the guy from the marketfolding up his sign and giving me a strange look.
I looked at him, he looked at me, I did some small circles on the asphalt with my toe, mummbled nice night and walked past him.
Me and urban caches never a winner.

Great hide, found it instinctively after reading hint. Bring something to get log out! TFTC
Hmm, apparently it *is* there - just it got hidden in a different place. Thanks to The Silver Snitch!
When you don't know it is off line or missing, you can usually find it. Or maybe given the circumstances the cache God just knew I needed to find it!
Found during Operation - Operation (During the Chaser's spinal surgery, 4.5 hours,and her recovery!)

When I get some time, a container and some magnets, I'll put it back up. I haven't forgotten about it.
The cache was a bit wet... a nice little hiding spot that had us stumped for a while but we got it in the end.

Found lying around in a puddle. Replaced a few metres away in what I hope is a safe spot.
Since we had just been to the pub lunch, why not do a city cache as well! We drove over, and M stayed in the car whilst A went to grab the cache. A returned a couple of minutes later with the cache, as she had been muggled out whilst signing the log.
A quick drive around the block to the masons car park, and we replaced the cache from a different angle and the stoner never had no idea what was going on.

Found the cache at 12.30am - no muggles at this time. Search for while. SL. Thanks t3h for organising the cache and hunt.
Hehehe, I went to find it about an hour after it was placed, but I'm not going to log it as found until I get around to going back there again and putting in some swaps.
Found this morning with a zebra called racing stripes after kickboxing this morning. As a previous log stated - found instantly but struggled to get the log out. I have a feeling this one is going to get muggled....
