I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note.

Good Day,

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Had a play and got eaten alive but didn't find
 
18-Apr-17
We search around for about 20 minutes and couldn't find it anywhere. The gps was a bit jumpy so not sure if that is the reason why or not. We had to leave because we were getting eaten alive by mozzies. We will head back with some insect repellant and try again.

Brother Colin and I are spending the day on the Sunshine Coast to gather a few solved puzzles Big Grin

We were driving right past this one so stopped to visit. GPS had us in the middle of a few good hiding spots, but no matter where we searched we didn't get the find. BC checked back through old logs and found a photo, but there's no cache in that spot. The CO might like to check on it.
 
20-Jan-17
Today IolantheK and I have ventured to the northern end of the Sunny Coast to find a few solved puzzles. Big Grin And today is SOOOOO HOT SurprisedTwisted

Now that was a hard one, when your phone keeps changing the coordinates, but found
 
07-Jan-16
The geowife was feeling poorly this morning and, by lunchtime, I was sick of sitting around the unit so I asked who wanted to come and find some geocaches. Miss 10 was the only one interested so off we went.

The GPS seemed to suggest that the coordinates were in the middle of the grass with nothing around. After checking out the picnic table and the fence around the scribbly gum, we expanded our search area.

The GPS was being a bit jumpy but I eventually narrowed the search area down to the most likely area, moved a leaf and voila! There it was!

Visited this cache and sure enough is in place and in good condition. No need for archiving. TFTC
 
02-Jan-16
Genyo and I weren't sure whether to look for this cache after the recent needs archiving but we are both glad we did. Once at gz we had a few places in mind to look and after a quick search I had discovered the cache well hidden in a similar container to other theuknurse hides. We placed the cache back just as well hidden. I guess it shows that it's best to look a few times before putting up an archive notice.

Tftc theuknurse!

I apologize for the confusion I caused before. Now it is a very clever find by theuknurse. TFTC

Totally vacant playground and park so freedom to search but a very annoyingly loud barking dog on the outskirts of the park. Found quickly- not sure if I like this type of container, hope it was a fresh one! Razz
Took earrings, left gold kangaroo.

At a fair guess, in keeping with past experiences of finding theuknurse's caches I was be looking for a urine specimen bottle. Checked GZ and a 20 m radius but failed to find it, an imminent downpour put an end to the search and had to head tail out of the area pronto. save it for another day.

Took our time but failed to locate cache.

Visiting the Noosa area today and I stopped and grabbed a cache or two on the way. The park was nice a quiet today which helped make this one a quick find.

Booyah Found it!

I believe that if you can find the first cache of the day you are off to a good start. Generally I've either got my caching brain on it's just not happening at all. Today must be a lucky day for me.

I was about to give up when I decided to look in one more place that I hadn't thoroughly checked. Booyah!

Staying at the Pomona showgrounds, for a couple of days.
Today, we did a day run to the Noosa area, to grab some caches.

Too wet for the junior muggles to play here today, made it a quick find for us.
Many thanks for placing this cache, theuknurse, for us and others to find.

Looked all over with nomesb within the clues and following the coordinates. Searched a wide area for over an hour and think it might have been moved. Lots of great spots around the area though.

Had a really extensive look for over an hour with my boyfriend yet to no avail...not sure if it is here or not. Found some good hiding places though!
