One or more of the following has occurred:

Cache Owner unable to maintain cache
No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.
Cache has been abandoned by cache owner

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to also prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the next 28 days, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you wish to replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Suggest this one go, it has being bulldozed and no action, similiar with one up the road

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (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 to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

GZ is a construction zone, suspect cache may be gone

GZ ravaged by construction workers. I'm sure this one is lost.

First one found by Team Iggylop!

Found it staring at me

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

First one good find

Nice quick easy find

11.50pm, found! Nice little spot!

Played frogger with the traffic trying to cross the road. After getting across, the cache was soon in hand.

TB "Scrat" visited your cache whilst on his Great Aussie Adventure.

TFTC megabogan

Took a bit of searching - mark down another for GC jnr. TFTC - good hide.

Good hiding spot

I live close to this cache, very bad stretch of road for accidents. Quick find TFTC

Found this one today. I had been in the area to find a dashpoint which is another gps based game and had tried to find one of the nearby caches but didn't have any success with that one. This one I found quite easily once I got into the right place. Signed log but didn't swap anything.

Thanks for the cache megabogan.

Find # 978 Found @19:00Hrs

A nice easy find on my way home from work.

Dropping my Grandma back home after a family birthday party to her new house and found this right nearby. Geoson ducked into the bushes and made the find while I played with my phone to distract the walking muggles. TFTC.

Just came back from Geocaching in Singapore so I thought I'll tick a few of the local caches where I live.
I found the cache but was confused as to why two logs are kept but I signed one of them.
I left a souvenir coin from Singapore for the next finder, took nothing.

Found it on a bike ride... muggles yelling at us from passing cars...

Found at 18:10 - Traffic was frantic around here, found a parking spot nearby a went for a short walk along the path. Cache was soon found. Very nice hide
TFTC

Found by Hayden after looking for 5 mins. Great little hide perfect for child's height.

Found by the Chefs, TNLN TFTC

I remember when it was 5 minutes between cars. Now it takes 5 minutes to cross the road.
An easy find if you don't mind the woofer over the back fence.

Found today while out and about. Because I like the shape of my car as it is, I parked it in a nearby side street and walked back to this cache. Found the cache within a minute but the dog over the fence was on to my presence straight away and by the sounds of him, he's a BIG dog! I wonder if his owners know why he keeps barking for no apparent reason. Signed log. TNLN. Thanks for the cache megabogan.

Tftc ;:)

Found at 2032hrs by Peter & Marian in the company of friendly Muggles,Bill and Robyn.
Out on a caching afternoon, aiming for the Berwick Springs Hotel for dinner, and more
Geocaching on the way home. 8th of 10, walk straight up to it a nice hide, signed log, thanks "megabogan" for the cache.

Didn't see anything that resembled a 'Panelbeaters Paradise', but an interesting search none the less

Another dog that is guarding the cache
TFTC

Another very hot day today, so it was best to wait until evening before going for a ride. Got to the GZ just as the sun was going down and was lucky to spot the cache quickly - since the dog(s) just over the fence were barking really loudly at me.

TFTC.

Awesome quick find. Tftc.

Took a couple minutes to find, no crashes today. TFTC!

took a while to find. but good thing, no crashes today

parked across the road walked over nice easy find thanks

on my way home from melbourne so decided to grab a few cache.sl thanks megabogan for the cache

KTCvic ventured out on a Gippsland Gallop today rounding up approximately 40 caches. What a fantastic day it was too, as we were able to soak up some rays as well as the views, as we made our way eventually to Cape Patterson.

Parked in a side street and went for a stroll, not much in terms of muggles around. The main road was reasonably busy and can see why this cache was aptly named.

Arrived at GZ and K ducked under the cover, then T found his way around only to hear the cry of found it as he got there. TFTC

Found on a wet caching night, TFTC

Quick find on a windy night

Oohhhh new log book. Quick find food coords.

Had 2 accidents in this area in the early nineties. A truck cut me off and I ran off the road into a street sign and the other I cut someone off and the ran into the back off me.

Tftc

Had to make a mad dash cross road as it was mad . Can see why a panel beater would like this spot. No nose to tail today.

Nearly caught up in a panel beaters delight.

Nice hide. I almost missed it. Quite a few jogger type muggles were out this afternoon, but I managed to dodge them all. TFTH SL

Find # 1809

After a late night last night, I had a bit of a late start for my planned mini cache run to the Narre Warren and Berwick area. It was quite an overcast day, but no real threat of rain which kept me happy.

After finding "Are they ever gonna fix this road design?" up the road, I continued down the path towards this one. This was a nice easy find, in good order. [^]

Thanks to megabogan for the cache.

Found it today at 13:05 my first ever find! With the help from ny brother! There was a little bit of water in it so we cleaned it up a bit. TFTC

Quick find, nice waterproof container this time, but I still don't know why you brought me here.

Last cache for the day.... Nice walk along to the cache and quick spotted it and signed the log. Thanks megabogan.

Found 16:45, after a brief search, signed old log.

TNLN, CSI=2, thanks megabogan.

Container replaced, log retained as perfectly dry, but new log added anyway.

Never thought this one was in much danger of water ingress, but if cachers don't bother closing it properly, or take care, these things can happen.
Will try to refresh soon, but laid up for a bit so may take time.

Container is damaged and holding water - log book is damp.

Quick find and nicely placed. Partly well hidden and yet in the thick of muggle central.
Thx for the cache megabogan

TFTC, very damp in side.

Nice hide here - took us a while to spot it, even though it was quite obvious in hindsight.

See what you mean about the traffic - 2 near accidents while we were looking. Not a place to park the cache mobile at the side of the road

TNLN TFTC

As others have said, the clip on the cache is gone and the cache no longer closes. As a result, we tipped out a lot of water when we opened it, and the log is drenched. Left it as is, as more thunderstorms are forecast - didn't seem to make a lot of sense to leave the log out to "dry out"

As per previous log. Cache has been emptied of water and closed now again.

Cache was open to the elements. All wet inside so could not sign log. TFTC

An easy find, ducking under cover in between passing muggles

Cache # 881
After that string of four bogan caches I'd say most of the prangs around here are caused by cachers looking for somewhere to park. The last one did have an interesting container but it isn't closing properly and may leak soon.
Thanks for the cache.

Nice

Found on a dreary spring day, thanks for the cache, megabogan!

No3 find. Brennan found this one. Our first tree find. We now won't just look on the ground. This is fun!!

A nice wee stroll to this one, done soon after dark.

Thanks for the quick find on our Sat afternoon run. Dog was barking mad! SL

Woo

After abit of a scrounge around in the wrong tree scanners8 moves to another and comes up with the goods

Nice cache gps had us looking in the wrong spot for a bit. Found with bros

Garden

Nice easy find! Beware of dog barking too

Well attached good cache

God Damian Collins is good

Nice and close to home. Thanks

After last nights aborted effort for night time caching (having a bad cold and all) I decided to get out and about today and get some fresh air into my lungs. The problem of course now is where to start. All caches from home are now some distance and after last nights effort I was concerned with caches in Berwick coming up as DNF. But I tried again and had a very successful job of it in Berwick, Officer and Pakenham. I parked by the side of the road and once the muggle walkers had moved I saw something suspcious and found a cache attached. Thanks mega.

Found by Bob at 1625

I was heading homewards after a pretty good day around Cranbourne and this one was right on the way, so I pulled in (without having anyone rear-end me either!) and a short walk had me at GZ. I don't like lurking around people's back fences, so it was lucky that I spotted the cache pretty quickly and was soon able to head out of there again.

TNLN

Thanks megabogan - as others have noted, the cache doesn't close properly, so I jammed it in pretty hard and I think it should hold together ok.

#685 2nd of 11 caches while out and about taking advantage of a lovely blue sky winter's day (even if the wind was freezing!). As others have mentioned the cache can't be closed properly and in fact it was wide open and the logbook had fallen out. Thanks megabogan.

A nice quick find at 15:00. No bingles to be seen or heard today thankfully . As mentioned, the clip is gone and moisture is starting to seep in.

TNLNSL, although our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks megabogan.

Grab while passing by late at night. TFTC

The clip on this cache is broken and as such the container isn't closing.
With it now being the wet weather season, you'd want you cache containers sealing as best you can.

We decided to tackle all the ones along this road, and walked the whole way.

at this stage we were unsure of the reason for the name, but after heading to the others we got the point!!

we didn't see any problems with the road today!!

found the cache and headed along!!

TNLNSL

TFTC

Found in the company of coley_babee.
Didn't see anything that would make a panelbeater rub their hands in glee.
Maybe it was the day, or the time in which we came past.
Thanks again megabogan.

Finally stopped for a look. Having driven past here so many times now eyeballing this spot, I thought I knew ever hide possible around this location. How wrong I was. Found GZ after a short deviation from where I was sure I would find the cache. Cache now signed and off the list. TFTC. Kems

Found with Epicmac. Certainly got to see why it was named thus Nice hide!

Nice quick find. TFTC

Found while holidaying with friends in narre. Nice to have something to do without driving to the city.

Found the cache without too much difficulty, but I do notice that the clip has become detached from the body of the container. When you open it, it drops off, and it doesn't seal as well as it should when closed. I've had a few similar containers with the same problem, so I think it's a weakness in the design.

I was at GZ at around 5:30, and on the other side of the road there was one continuous stream of cars crawling past (or sometimes stopped). I can imagine that there could be accidents aplenty here. Thanks for the cache.

I found this cache today at 1:35pm as the 6th of 10 whilst the others were shopping at Fountain Gate. I probably would have been quicker here if I hadn't been put off by the dead baby possum a couple of metres from GZ. No prangs today. Thanks from D B-A.

Long weekend! Monday off work! There really is only one thing to do, so LouiseAnn and I decided it was time to attempt to break our number of caches in one day record. This was our first cache of the day. After much debating and deliberation during the week (when we probably should have been working) we agreed the Lynbrook / Narre Warren area was cache rich enough to support a big day. Also, neither of us have been caching out here before so we wouldn’t have the problem of clashing with caches that only one of us had found before. This was cache number fourteen of thirty for the day. Having failed to find the near by cache “Are they ever going to fix this road design?” We were concerned this cache may also be a troublesome find. Thankfully we were able to locate after a short search. Signed and replaced without any issues. The cache is in good order. Thanks for the cache, megabogan.

This was our fourteenth cache find of the day. Pathfinder24 and I decided to break our record of number of finds in one day (previously 15, we made it to 30 in the end!). We picked the Lynbrook and Narre Warren area, because it looked like there would be a lot of caches close together in this area. On arrival at the cache area, we were having flash backs to the " Are they ever gonna fix this road design?" cache, but thankfully it turned out better. We found the cache quite quickly and signed the log book. The cache is in good condition, no water, all contents fine and dry. Thanks for the cache megabogan.

Found @1645 #305
Another Quick find on a cache run thru Cranbourne North, number 3 today.
Nice cahce container
TFTC

lot of cars traffic....i try quick go in i hope not no one notice me ...good one caches i never see it before

Found the cache easily. Listened for the sound of bending tin, but nothing today. So Sorry, no photo to add to the log.

A quick find on our way past traveling along "Panelbeaters Way" TFTC

Slipped out from my inlaws with Wild Josh for a close by cache. Thanks megabogan. Good container and hide. Wasn't expecting it where it was.

Found with draw four. Busy road to cross and I can see why this is Panelbeaters Paradise. thanks megabogan.

12-12 2nd find of the day at 11:55 and 1193rd find in total.
It's funny how we get stuck looking for caches always in the same place.
After stopping for a quick think we eventually came up with an idea that led us to the cache
(''\(OoO)/'') Thanks megabogan for the caching fun!
