I am amazed that this one lasted over seven years in its hiding spot. But, it sounds like it is gone again and so it is time to archive it.
Nice easy find, but log is getting quite wet, might need a plastic bag after a dry out. TFTC 
Found it! Nothing inside! We just but a page from our book inside to log it there is enough space for a few fellow cacher!
Have fun! Tftc
Have fun! Tftc
Found it with The_KC and put a new Piece of paper in it because the box ist totaly empty. maybe you should have a look, if it is the right hide. thanks for the Cache!
Found it, I think. Opened and on the ground with nothing in it. Have popped it back but don't have spare paper, pen or trinkets to pop in. Will do tomorrow.
Is a missed opportunity for items! I will put some in next week so people can begin to trade. Tftc!

Cache for the day time. I was quite tired, so I left work early. Had planned to get this cache yesterday, but with a different route home due to errands, was set on it for today.
However, I left my GPS at home, and phone was playing up!! I knew the hint, but had no coords, so I started searching every hint item - nothing...
Luckily after about 10 min the phone remembered itself, and we were off!! Then I relised I had been close in my estimate of location - but not close enough!!
Consec caching day #1131

[green] Out with Hanknstone again, for my last day in Christchurch. Just a few today, to fill in time before taking H. off at the airport.
Heading out to the MEGA today with other geocachers. Wanted to find some caches on the way with Haydn.Seek and RobGlassey. Enjoyed exploring different parts of Christchurch.
After a nice walk through the park i found this one due to the hint quickly. TFTC!
Was in Christchurch for work today so just had to grab a cache on the way back to the airport. Parked up and wandered to GZ, noted some muggles playing rugby in the field but as luck would have it I was able to spot the hidey hole very quick and barely missed a step as I made the grab and kept walking to a quiet corner to sign the log. Such a lovely spring afternoon today and would have liked to do more caching but have a plane to catch, will make up for it at the mega next month
Carried out the same maneuver on the way back and no one was any the wiser, thanks for bringing me to this lovely park!

Second find but first time was muggled. This tine logged early in am, just got it back in hidey place and council garden staff asked what we were up to. Left her checking out the website on her smartphone. TFTC
Found with TregearP. Managed to attract the attention of the Council worker although although not to the location of the cache per se. Had a great chat, and potentially a new geocacher in the making.
All in good order, TFTC.

On my way to the pizza event- decided to grab a couple towards the September spelling challenge. Nice easy one to start with- although I did plunge my hand into a bunch of wet leafy goop before I found the right spot. tftc
Thanks for sharing the interesting history of this park. The homestead would surely have been impressive and beautiful. The cache was an easy find as I spotted it peeking out at me as I approached. Replaced it in a more hidden fashion. TFTC
A quick find before a play in the playground. Geo-toddler also loved the autumn leaves at gz. Log damp, put it in a new plastic bag as previous one had split. Thanks for placing a cache here!
Visiting from Montana, U.S. Watching my nephew play rugby, they won! I had down loaded Christchurch caches so fired up the GPS and this one was just 70m away. Walked over and made the find. Little water in the cache so tipped it out. Log book was a little damp but still signable. Many thanks for this great cache.
On our way to play mini golf we popped in to grab this cache. Never stopped here before, minis asked if we could come back 1 day, I didn't see the point now this cache is a smiley face. Told them we'll go find another park with caches we don't have, smiles all round! TFTC
Great fun if you like autumn leaves. Found with Collins.katie and ems_taylor373. TFTC
compass was unreliable.Cheers for the the hide. On my way to the Fan Zone WCC on foot, looking out for Geocaches as I go.
Found it pretty much straight away! Got some strange looks from a couple of muggles. Love the glitter. Fourth and final cache for today
Quick cache after a spot of lunch. Last cache before returning to Oz. TFTC. TNLN
Geo caching in this area and so A quick stop at this little reserve. And then a quick find. While visiting Christchurch...I took this photo of the entrance in to the park between the showers.
Thank you for the cache....
Thank you for the cache....
Took us a little time to find due to many muggles out on the first sunny Saturday in weeks. Pikachu still lives here!
Wandering along Fendalton Road and decided to see if there were any caches in this park. Found it with little difficulty. As I didn't have a pen on me, took a photo holding the cache. #573. TFTC.
went out for a drive and decided to stop and find a couple of caches. Easy find but had trouble putting the cache back.
Enjoyable walk with aka_SJ. We had to wait out a few muggles, but finally were able to locate. TFTC.
Suffering a bit from the damp but still there. Added a small swap since the cupboard was bare and the cache size can tolerate small items. TFTC.
It was time to head back to the ranch but not before one more find of course. After Upoj finally settled down, it led me straight to the stash at 22:20.
The insides of the cache were pretty wet but the logbook was still dry enough to write in at this stage. It might need some TLC in the not too distant future though.
TNLNSL, although a couple of our geocoins had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks Looking4thebroc.
