[u]MAINTENANCE REQUIRED?[/u]
[navy]This cache would appear to be in need of owner intervention, therefore I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.
Geocache maintenance is a cache owner responsibility. Your prompt attention to any log that indicates things could be amiss will be greatly appreciated by all geocachers, see here http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance
The guidelines advise; if you can't fix it straight away then Disable it till you can and here's how; http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235
Please respond to this situation within 28 days to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
If you require more time, please be sure to post a "Write Note" log (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.
For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to date, or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.
And don't forget, once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404 and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 to get your cache up and running again.[/navy]

Unfortunately this is MIA!!!
Only a Munzee here instead.
Edited : Apologies as I hadn't changed the found status on my phone prior to logging this. A Definite DNF on this cache.

Hmm an unintentional coincidence I was only at the WWFM in Berwick yesterday! http://coord.info/GC5NKXB We were out and about today in the big smoke for the Boat Show. Geo daughter and I decided some city caches we otherwise wouldn't be able to do were a better option on this sunny winters day than looking at the boat show again! Geo son and Husband sent a few hours looking at boats and we had some fun in the sun.

3 of us checked every single seat along the promenade to no avail. Photos helped us find approx location but no where to be found. We did find a munzee qr code on one seat but that is all. I think it is hone
Found something that may be a cache. I'll need to check it out on the web. I'll claim it anyway.
Could not find this one. Too many muggles around and we looked like crazy people trying to find this one.
Muggle central! Had to pull out my year 12 drama skills and make up a whole story about a ring Id lost to have a good look around but still found nothing. Perhaps its gone? First DNF - devo.
Gotta cache 'em all!

I can to the wharf for dinner and when I checked for nearby caches was sitting right next to GZ. Metres away. I finished my schnitzel and beer and walked over for an easy find. TFTC.
So many muggles, even quite late at night.. Tried to discretely search but couldn't do much more..
We will have to add our name to the long, but distinguished, list of people that did not find it.
There were a hell of a lot of muggles on the terrace of the munich beerhouse...

DNF. 2 of us looked pretty hard despite Friday afternoon happy hour going on behind us.
Looking over the last several logs, I note a very interesting phenomena. The high-count experienced cachers can't find it. The inexperienced cachers are logging finds. I suppose then it is appropriate (albeit disappointing) for us to continue the trend. We did not find it.
I'm blaming the iPhone GPS. Or maybe I left my caching mojo on the plane. At any rate, another DNF in Melbourne - but I did score a cool pair of shoes at DFO nearby!
Friday 14 November 2014 - a hazey cool Spring evening after a long day in the Melbourne office, and going back to Canberra tomorrow. Looked thoroughly but could not locate.
Found while on vacation with cynlen and macktruck in Australia. Thanks for the cache!
#375. 50 days in a row.
Down in Melbourne for PAX and grabbed this one on the way back to the car, at 11:57pm. GPS was putting the location right between two seats, so I checked both and of course it wasn't in the first.
Edited to correct the date.

Visiting Melbourne from Toronto, Canada, and it's been wonderful so far. Grabbed this cache after the thunderstorm cleared up, while attending a conference at the MCEC. TFTC!
Massively overdue for replacement of log book. No lid on the container. My iPhone suggested it was 13m East of where it should be, but that could be my phone (although it's never really that far out) TFTC
Found it 13m east of where my iPhone GPS said it should be but put it back in same place in case it was my phone. TFTC
Log full, managed to get name on the log. Lots of people around this time of day!! Tftc
In the CBD again for another day of caching and beginning to find I have to wander further afield in search of smilies. Having grabbed another nearby I wandered over to have a look for this guy.
I could see as I approached that I needed to be either here or there. Naturally I chose here and it was there. So after an unsuccessful search whilst the beer drinkers did their thing nearby I changed location to 'there' and made a mercifully quick find. I signed and replaced without incident and headed on my way.
Thanks designk for another smiley and a pleasant walk along the river !

After checking into hotel room, needed a walk to clear my mind...sat down at the bench to admire the view and bingo! Found the cache and signed the very full log. TFTC
Found it quickly, thanks for the cache!
Note: The cache still needs maintenance (lid is missing, log book is almost full).

Found it after a first attempt last week with lots of muggles. Good hide but would recommend a container with a lid to keep log dry. No issues at moment however. TFTC.!
Even early on a Sunday morning it is still muggle heaven.[xx(][xx(] Spent way too much time searching the bench my GPSr had me at for GZ. Once I moved elsewhere, it was a quick find. TFTC designk
Had to have a couple of goes at this one as some muggles we're sitting right at GZ. Easy find on a lovely melb winters day. Tftc
Not many muggles around today. Easy find. Just as we replaced boat came in. Tftc.
Enjoying the sights around Melbourne as part of the open house festival. Picked up a few caches along the way. TFTC
Found this one while doing some caching in Melbourne up from Geelong, it was a fairly nice night out, thanks for the cache.
Good shopping day and then a good geocache! Woot! Beware of curious muggles though
Team Biz snag another cache while at the Conference. Nice quite day with not many muggles.

Sat around twiddling my thumbs waiting for a Muggle to finish having her lunch at GZ, then was finally able to make my move. TFTC!
Find #325
Just passing this way today so I stopped by for a look at this one. Pretty chilly windy day so no problem with muggles though the risk of being blown off my bike was increased. GPS on the iPhone was a little jumpy so I just looked around and soon had the cache in hand. As others noted it has lost it's lid but seems to have stayed try for the moment. I signed the second additional log and replaced it before sailing off with a tailwind. Thanks for the cache designk.

Had to dodge the tourists and runners for this one. GZ put me on the next bench but we got there eventually. Interesting how many times someone needs to do their shoes up! TFTC
At first we were looking at the wrong seat but eventually found it. The cache had no lid but isn't wet, so alright for now. Greetings from Tasmania. TFTC.
Fun cache to find. Had to wait for a break in the traffic to locate. Included a new addition to watch over the box...
