Definetly gone. No cache to find. No intention to maintain from the owner. Time to call it.
I am really sorry guys, i have been trying to fix the fact that it keeps getting wet but i can't find my own cache! I am really sorry because i know it keeps geting wet. I will have another look today and will try and find it again but someone has moved it of the wind has moved it or something like that.
I am so sorry!
I am so sorry!
Out in the park walking the boy this evening. On the way out I had a quick look for this and made the find after commiting to the right area (the co-ords are a bit off). Log book was doing a good impersonation of glue. As I didn't have an emergency log book/sheet on me I decided to whip it home (I'm nearby) and fix it up a bit. I dried it out and completed a five second dunk test. I can confirm Tufty's hypothesis; it is not waterproof. A new container may well be advisable. I have replaced the log book and provided a resealable bag to keep it dry for now. I also gave the pencil a much needed sharpen before returning the cache to GZ.
I found it on lying on the ground and full of water. It needs to be replaced with a waterproof container. Couldn't sign the log as it was wet.
Thanks for bringing me to this part of town.

Looked in all the wrong placed before finally spotting something that didn't belong T4TC.
Quickly spotted the cache, but as it was directly after a huge downpour got a bit wet and dirty retreiving it. Cache absolutely soaked, logbook unusable by any normal writing implement, but the Fisher Space pen saved the day again. Every cacher should have one of these!

4896 An army situation indeed... Nicely hidden, Mrs YuGeo managed to grab a glimpse of it from the right angle. TFTC.
I thought that I was going to need an army to find the solution, but there it was. Thanks.
Had to drop somebody of at the Novotel, so did a little d-tour back home.
It was starting to rain so didn't go for a walk in the park. Maybe next time.

Spotted this one almost straight away - nice one. Should be a fairly easy retrieve for most. Well done on the FTF (12 minutes! 
), Gadget man and Wonder boy 
- comprehensively beat me to this one. Coords were a little off - other side of the path, maybe in someone's private property, but the cache location was easily deduced. TFTC!!!

TFTC!!! Got the notifacation, but think what cost me the FTF was the time it took to load up, must get a iphone!!
Arrived to find Gadget with cache in hand. Felt like kicking something.

Was at the organic shop in GI when this one was published. Given it was only 2.5km from GI we quickly made a detour and headed for the cache. Arrived at GZ about 10 minutes after publishing. Co-ords had me 6m into private property so had to use some common sense to find the cache. Quickly spotted it and managed to retrieve it no problems. Hopefully the next cachers are able to get it back to where it needs to go. As I was about to replace the cache TWS came walking down the path. Handed him the cache. TFTC and FTF #61 .
