A fresh log book was found behind the rock wall however it seems this may have been tampered with as there is no sign of the eclipse container. We folded up the logbook and placed it back in the rockwall in a place where it hopefully stay dry untill given another container. Tftc
No luck for me today. Swept back and forth a couple of times probing and testing but nothing moved and nothing I could feel. Oh well some days that happens.
Second time here, today the hall was almost free of muggles and the container where it supposed to be. Quick found. TFTC.
Caching the town on day 6 if our south NZ caching blitz. There is something about brick walls and geocaching, bit like strawberries and cream. Tftc
Down in Invercargill with the Manawatu U15 Championship boys hockey team for the tournament this week, and plenty of caching. Time to grab a couple of caches before the afternoon's game and headed eastward to make some finds. A nice quick find here today in the sunshine between passing vehicles as the location provides reasonable cover. TFTC.
Pretty sure it's gone owner of this one can you go have a look and if it's not there replace it I really want to find this one
A few muggles around this evening with a game (or practise) happening over the road, but they are all focused over there. Initially didn't spot it - I must have looked in all the other possibilities, but it stuck out on the second pass. It has had a replacement outer at some point and is no longer camoflauged. Had similar "eyesight" issues with the log. Signed in a space just after Jan 2016, then thought I was sure it was recently found, and saw most of the rest of the book is full. Just the back page to go!
Thanks for a dot day smilie.

On a touring holiday from the UK and staying at the nearby hotel. After the drive from Te Anau we wanted to stretch our legs and grab a couple of caches whilst we were in Invercargill. The good hint led to a quick find. TFTC
On a touring holiday around New Zealand staying at the nearby Ascot Park Motel, having a walk around the area picking up a few caches and dropping off TB's cache all in good order TFTC
It was busy inside the club, but it was quiet outside, for a quick find. Cheers

A little hard to pry logbook out, bagged up for extra grip. Nice dry spot. TFTC [8]
I remember ice-skating here years, years ago. Fun times. Learned to bowl here too while at school.

Sorry for the late logging but have been away for work for the past week and this is the chance to catch up some what.
As I was heading south for the week i thought it appropriate following a collect a few early morning caches before having to consider breakfast and training customers for the day before making our way north. This was the first in the morning and a nice and quick find that presented no issues.
Thanks for the placement
