Its all in the Family Kingston Beach, Tasmania, Australia
By Norms quest on 21-May-10. Waypoint GC28Y1B

Due to a change of owners to the building this cache is no longer available. Thanks to all who have found it.

No longer available =- cache closed

This one was too good for me today.

Staying with family in the area and decided to try a few caches on our way home from the shops. Looked for about 10 mins but were left stumped by this one. Will try again over the next few days. Someone drove by and waved so maybe another geocacher?

Great hide and hint thanks!!!!

Real tricky

Tftc

TFTC! Haaa sneaky, couldnt imagine trying to get this on a business day...

After searching for Sydney to Hobart yachts with no luck we grabbed a couple of caches on the way home, had visited this one previously but there was far to much muggle activity to grab. Tftc

Finally got a chance to pop by this one in the evening so there was no muggle eyes upon us. Sneaky little hide, loved it!
Tftc

Found this one on a Saturday morning dog walk. Even so there were a few muggle workers nearby. I really enjoyed the hide, very clever! TFTC!

Decided to get this one today as last time we came there were people watching from within the nearby businesses. Today no one was watching which made it easy to search. It all makes sense when you find it. Really clever hide. TFTC

As an owner of a particular make of car, I frequent this area occasionally. Often arriving by bus, or in my older and less prestigious car with the newer one on the back of a trailer, and to deal with matters relating to that car which provides ample opportunity for using public transport or getting exercise, even when not wanted.

Anyway today I caught the bus down here to look at the mess of a gearbox which I had just bought to replace the mess of a gearbox that manufacturer had provided as standard issue.

After gas bagging with my mechanic, I missed the return bus by 50m so I evidently had 16 minutes to find this cache, which I had looked for on previous occasions albeit with more watchful eyes and/or cross fit runners and less time before the bus. I understand that people who do Crossfit don't talk about it whilst they are actually doing it because they physically can't. Today they were nowhere to be seen, other businesses had all give for the day so I had 16 minutes to myself.

The cache was found pretty quickly (much less time than a man walking his dog towards me took to from the off-ramp took to come into side-view). After a quick inspection of what turned out to be the ide from above, more time was spent hunting for a 'normal' pen that worked. I ended up using the sharpie. I too found a "decoy" cliplock bag a few meters from the cache.

Also evidently I wrote yesterday's date in the log.

TFTC Norms Quest

Hi Norms quest; TFTC!
A real winter's day today, complete with snow falling in and around Kingston. Between falls, we popped in here hoping to find, and so to complete all GC Kingston caches. After looking for a while, we thought we were out of luck, because we found the placeholder, EMPTY !!!
The smallest ep peered into the dark void, and then finally completed a tricky extraction. YAY !!!
All good now, and replaced, as it appeared it should have been.
299/301 @ 1135hrs Sat 23rd July 2016 ep&P.

Thanks creator

Australia Trip, Day 23 of 49
Tasmania Trip, Day 7 of 12
On Cache tour with Theatralis.

German Log:
Heute hatten wir viele Caches vor. Am Morgen ging es nach Huonville um dort tasmanischen Honig zu kaufen. Auf dem Rückweg nach Hobart machten wir bei einigen Caches halt. Wir schauten vor allem nach Caches mit einer hohen Bewertung. Fast vergaßen wir dabei unser Abendessen zu kaufen, aber in Australien haben die Läden lange geöffnet. Vielen Dank an dieser Stelle schonmal für die kreativen und großartigen Caches, die wir finden durften.
Es gibt wenig Caches, bei denen uns der Cachename beim suchen hilft. Hier war es aber eindeutig so! Sobald man es versteht ist es das reinste (Familien)Kinderspiel Großartige Konstruktion und fantastische Idee!

English Log: (translated with Google Translater)
Today we had many caches to do. In the morning we went to Huonville to buy there Tasmanian honey. On the way back to Hobart, we stopped at some caches. We looked especially for caches with a high rating. We almost forgot about to buy our dinner, but in Australia , the shops fortunately stay open long. Thank you to this point in advance for the creativity and greatness caches that we could find.
There are not so much caches in which we can help the cache name in search . Here , it was clearly so ! Once you understand it is mere (family)child's play Great construction and great idea!

Greetings from Munich, Germany!

MrsGT54 was quick to locate the cache. signed the log and replaced as found. TFTC

Norm will be proud, found it in a very cool hidey hole. Lucky we didn't get sprung by any passing muggles today. Our friends Larry and his wife Lisa work close to here in the joinery place, they're good people they allow Lenny the apprentice sell off cuts to the public to help him pay for the upcoming wedding to his finance Lucy in June. TFTC Norms quest, we will be back to help fund the wedding very soon. Log damp so have added some waterproofing to help make this last a while longer

Very clever hide, no tools required, but mention of one in a previous log gave a useful clue. TFTC

Travelling around Australia and spending a few months in Tasmania.

Now staying in Campania but with a planned trip to Launceston tomorrow we had to do head to Kingston today for a Gnomescapade [:X]

We managed to find your cache while here.

Mr Felix looked initially but missed it, Mrs Felix walked up and went what about this?

TFTC Norms quest

Very sneaky. Someone who knows the CO gave us the thumbs up as we left!

What a tricky one. It took a while but we finally got there. The owner appeared just as we were signing the log. Always a pleasure to meet fellow Cachers. Thanks Norms quest for a great hide.

Wow, that's tricky! Even trickier when you park on the wrong side... Once we found the obvious, we searched and thought and searched and thought. On the verge of calling it, I decided to try one last thing. And it had promise. But there was a muggle car... Bugger it, I thought. Round I went and stood at GZ, thinking and pondering and finally, with a bit of assistance from a geotool, the extremely clever cache was revealed!! Definitely a favourite point from me. And as we signed it, the owner of the muggle car appeared; only it wasn't a muggle at all, but the CO! Nice to meet you and TFTC, Norms quest. =^.^=

A very clever, sneaky hide! Gave it a fav point, TFTC
We're on a six month stay here from the Kurrajong area, (Blue Mountains) NW of Sydney, to tour in the caravan and also visit our kids and grandkids in the Huon Valley
On four previous visits before this visit, we were muggles, so we have a whole island of caching fun ahead of us!

Found it!!! ♡
Good, clear clues!!!!

Having to come down this way to have a look at one of my cache where the lid had gone missing I picked out this cache as one to earn me a badge on GC for finding a cache with 10 favourite points.
I parked up next to ground zero and started my search and carried on and on and on.....
Being a blow in I have no idea who Norm is or what his family are like. I spotted where I would have hide the cache but couldn't find it there so after extending my searcg area and still nothing I started doing a bit of googling which got me back to where I had started!

So with no joy I texted Goose of gooseandegg fame and would you believe it I used a bit more force and I found the cache just before Richards reply came in.

I nice hide that has taken me longer than I was thinking and first of its kind down here so it get a favourite from me.

Thanks for the cache.

Day #6 of our holiday to Tasmania - first time as cachers [^] , and first time with 4 kidlets in tow

Decided to explore the Kingston area (as that's where my brother lives!) with caches as our guide!
This was a tricky hide, and i was caught red-handed as I was signing the log
Was about to stumble out an explanation of what I was doing when he quickly informed me he was the cache owner! Phew

Clever hide, and I too, enjoyed the Life be in it ads, and still know the jingle well
Thanks for the cache today!

Found on a hot day in my holidays TFTC TNLN great day for me and geocaching

Ah ha! I enjoyed this one a lot. Thought I'd spotted it straight away, but extracting the cache was not quite as it seemed. Very clever! Log appears to have been damp, may need some new paper. TFTC!

I had spotted something that almost caused me to get my arm stuck that I assumed was the cache out of reach. I'd taken photographic evidence and was photographing the mural when a man came outside from the building. He told me where the cache was!!! Phew; otherwise I would've logged a find when I didn't actually find it. Thankfully there was a bus stop nearby to get me back to the city. I sat and watched a constant stream of exercisers from a different nearby facility run along the side of the road despite an equally constant stream of motorists using the road. Thanks for the cache.

Creative

Very clever! I like your thinking. TFTC!

A quick find for us today using the hint. I loved the Life Be In It ads on TV. Thanks for the cache

Loved it, TFTV

Easy find late one night! Nice one

Found when part of Tascookies. TFTC

TFTC TNLN very clever

Very clever. Normally don't like 'clever hides' but lots of fun

Thanks for the cache

Relogged with my new profile. Signed in logbook as Visa96.

tftc

Found this one, on a amazing trip around Tasmania in a campervan - TFTC

Found with MCD on board.

1st cache! Discovered geocaching today and fully stoked on it! Props to the Sweet family.

Very clever hide well done

Very clever cache, we couldn't work it out but then it clicked for Knight no.4. TFTC.

A clever hide! Well Done Norms Quest. TFTC (Log book is a bit soggy)

Nearly gave up. Sorry, can only remember Norm. Well constructed hide. A favourite from us.

Gotcha !!! TFTC

Clever cache great find

Bucketing down with rain and the GPS was playing up. A tip from Goose had me heading in the right direction and the cache was soon retrieved, signed and replaced. TFTC.

The cache was not in it's usual spot so we put it back where it belonged. TFTC

Found Norm and the family and it was easy after that (just needed strong fingers) not sure what the dog's name is btw TFTC

Great hiding spot. took us a few minutes! TFTC

TFTC! Very cool hiding spot it took us a minute or two to figure that out!!
Sorry cant remember the family names but we are into life!!

Love it, clever hide requires clever eye. Tftc!

Tftc, top hide, love it.

Finding some clever ones today! On my way to nab the Acheivers cache in Kingston for my 80th cache if it's still up for grabs. Loved this one. Very neat idea

It was pretty clear where to look but the hide was not so obvious. Luckily it clicked for me quite quickly and we soon had the cache in hand. Nice hide which on any other day would have had us bamboozled for some time! TFTC

Unfortuantely there was a part of this cache hide which wasn't correctly put back and therefore it was quite obvious where to look. A clever design all the same Norms quest, cheers!

My GPS reading was a little off but description was helpful. Plus there is a gym nearby!

Finally, I feel like part of the family! TFTC

Wow that was another clever hide and therefore another favourite. Had us looking for awhile.

TFTC

Very clever hide - haven't seen any others like this . TFTC

Loved this one - an ingenious hide. Thanks Norms quest the GPS put us pretty close to GZ and we looked in all the likely spots until geoteen spotted the hide! We quickly had the cache in hand and signed and returned to its hiding place. TNLN

Loving your cache hides normsquest!

Another fantasic hide this one was and another favourite one for us, TNLN, TFTC

A lovely hiding spot.
TFTC

Found it and kept it in the family.

Found at 2.45pm. Having a quiet day today after visitng the market this morning. Checked this one on the way home - touched it but didn't move things the right way. Came back later after using a PAF option and made the find easily this time- just didn't notice the tell tale signs the first time. TFTC - a clever hide

Lgg is now nice and dry.
Please remember to put cach back EXACTLY as you found it. Wind will remove cache from its hide if you dont!!!!

Great little cache, well hidden! Log is very wet, probably needs replacing TFTC

Clever hide, took a bit of thinking then it came to me all of a sudden! Log is a bit damp TFTC!

Very clever hide i almost gave up, but is the norm for me to keep looking.

Great cache and great to meet the cache owner. Thanks Norms quest

Very clever! Took us a while....

Clever hide. Great Clue. I tried this one once before but its much easier after hours.

Took us a while to get this one...very cool hide!
Thnx, Joshua from Holland.

First micro. Found with hawkhunter42.

found with the thorpedos clever cache and a quick find

Easy find. TNLF TFTC!

We do appreciate a clever hide. Luckily no-one was around on New Year's Eve. SL. TFTC (and we've made it a 'favourite').

Oh how clever, I love these ones. It's right infront of you all along, well done Norms Quest & thankyou.

What a great hide as soon as I looked I knew it was in there.

I had a brief look at where this might be hidden once before, but got scared off because it was obviously going to be close to, of not in, a business car park. Came back after work hours this time, and had a bit of trouble before the "aha!" moment hit - nice hide!!

Waited till after 5 to cut down on the muggles, a pretty straightforward but clever hide.

After a quick search during which we were interrupted by a muggle we managed to locate the cache. We liked the hide. TFTC

This was fun to find at night, while dodging passing muggles! TFTC

A fun cache to find in the dark. TFTC!

walked straight to it looked at it then dismissed it. thought about it a bit more then got it.
cheers

This one had us stumped. I came back after dropping geokid off at the nearby juniors golf and suddenly got the swing of it. What a fantastic hide.

Found Norm and his family, look's like the rockery takes a beating! TFTC

Found it at 11:30. Clever hide. Thanks

We had our hands on the cache without realising it yet when a friendly face appeared and suggest that we "be persistant" with what we were already trying. Before long we had the cache in hand.

Quick find with the geokids on our way out to Church Together at the DEC. Almost had us in a spin. TFTC

Very clever hide, sprung by a muggle when we found it, who knew all about it. (Shop next door). Out hunting with Tassie Trekkers. TFTC.

Very clever hide got sprung by the fellow next door who said "so you found it then" is this classed as being muggled or not. Very clever hide will add to our favourites. Found with whitewebbs TFTC

Very cool!

Thx

the margate six

We tried this one yesterday morning but there was to much happening, returned after lunch time on a Saturday to have the whole place to ourselfs. The wife was the one getting the work out on this one before pointing the cache out to me to sign and return.
JABs.

Found with MtnLioness on our week-long sightseeing, touring and caching tour of Tasmania.
Muggles were nearby, so we came from the other side, yep, its all in the family, clever hide too. TFTC.

Found in the company of MtbikerOz (Dad) on our week of Touring and caching around Tazzie.
Have only been able to log these once we got back to Melbourne.
Very very good hide!!
Great idea!
