I think this one is gone as the bush covering the cache has been pruned to the stump and no sign of cache.
 
25-May-13
The bush and the cache have both gone.

Found it while on an early morning bike ride at about 6:30am. I had driven past this spot a few times but each time there has been cars in the car park or too many muggles across the road (not good to attempt on a Sunday morning). This morning there were still a few cars driving past one of which was a police car (reminded me of affy's note on a previous hunt). But fortunately I had a good idea of where to look from looking on Google Earth and what to look for from the cache name. So this was a quick gps free find in about 30 seconds in the first place I looked. TFTC.

19-Feb-12
Found it this time with no cops giving me funny looks
 
14-Feb-12
Holly Molly Had to get out of there quick!!! While crawling throughout the plant life I looked up and there it was a cop car with lights on right in front of me, then notice he just pull over a car (thank god for that) he then got out of his car and gave me a rather funny look then went to the other car, that’s when we got into our car rather quickly and got hell out of there. My mind was going 100 miles an hour tiring to think of a excuse why myself and two geokids were in the middle of the plants looking like we were tiring to flog them.

Searched for a while before Ms Bushies2 found it however once she retrieved the cache, a muggle woman approached us with angry looking face [:(!] gee! She and a few muggles were cleaning up the garden next to the squash area opposite to where the cache was. It was hard to communicate with her because we both are deaf but Mr Bushies2 mumbled something about cleaning up the rubbish. She didn't look satisfied then a few muggles friends of her started to walk towards us so we hurriedly drove off with the cache but we will drop the cache later this afternoon when the area is clear. Thanks.

Yes a stats cache. It's not an exam though.

It's grad exam time... COMPUTER SCIENCE Inside your desk you'll find a listing of the DEC/VMS operating system in IBM 1710 machine code. Show what changes are necessary to convert this code into a UNIX Berkeley 7 operating system. Prove that these fixes are bug free and run correctly. You should gain at least 150% efficiency in the new system. (You should take no more than 10 minutes on this question.) MATHEMATICS If X equals PI times R^2, construct a formula showing how long it would take a fire ant to drill a hole through a dill pickle, if the length-girth ratio of the ant to the pickle were 98.17:1. GENERAL KNOWLEDGE Describe the Universe. Give three examples. Know your stats caches too.
