I put the bag and log back where I think the cache should have been, but this needs a new container. (See my previous log). If you need more info, or can't find it just email me here. Thanks
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but this has been muggled. I found the log sheet in its bag and on the ground along with pieces of brown plastic that looked like it used to be a container. There was a fireworks box under the building so I expect there have been revellers here recently.
I put the log and plastic bag back under where the cache probably was and it should be okay but it needs a new container. Sorry I had nothing.

The coordinates are pointing to the wrong (western) side of the road, so I relied on the hint instead, which unfortunately also pointed to the wrong corner. I would suggest "northern" or "north-west" might be more helpful.
TFTC - ended up parking on wrong side of park, so long walk but enjoyed the fresh air.
Also a DNF for me. I was going so well up until this one! a search around the whole structure proved fruitless. It was quite messy with loads of rubbish and junk. Did not really enjoy this location
Quite a few people about which limited our search. Also GZ was very heavily littered with broken glass, mouldy furniture and general rubbish. Checked the obvious places but without luck, so decided to pass on this cache.
7th of 26 for the day. A quick find helped by the location being fairly deserted. TFTC
Fairly quick find. Still not that keen on these style of hides sorry. Cheers Gav [7926]
#657. Coords led us straight to GZ, but we found the cache lying on the ground in the open. I hid the container where I think it would have been hidden based on the clue. SL, TFTC. -tee, +party popper.
Don't feel bad kjwx I think the co ords are out. the clue is good and here is another although its more of a safety warning, beware of the bees!! TFTC
Wasn't quite as on the ball here as I would have liked - I blame the powerlines. Finally scored an own goal, though.
#388 - Our first find on another (this time, 3 day) trip in the Wairarapa. And our 8th find so far today... we'd actually given this spot a quick search last time, but we came up empty handed... the stock co-ordinates led us right onto the opposite side of the road, so we had to resort to the clue to find it, we came up trumps 5 minutes later. Glad to get this one ticked off, now off to White Rock & Tora to place some caches (via other caches of course! ) SL TFTC.
Nice and quick find on our Anniversary weekend wee cache trip, cache was out in the open, so replaced where we thought it should be. TFTC
Had to go over to the Waiararpa for work so decided that I would do a couple of caches, last time I was here I couldn't find this one so decided to go and have anther look at this one again, found it quickly today in the first spot that I looked, I was sure that I checked here last time, OH well, Thanks for bringing me to this interesting spot.

Wow, I thought this one would be impossible in the last hrs before new years, I would have thought this place would have been rocking it for the place to be for New Years Eve celebrations!!
Not, it appears!!
Quick easy find. thanks.

Not quite where the coords seemed to be pointing, but the hint prevailed and it was found after a short search. I wonder if the FUAFC sell season passes for their swanky venue?

A quick find on a day's cache hunting in the Wairarapa with CrystalFairy. Both our GPSs were putting us about 20m out on the other side of the road so the hint was rather necessary. Signed log, TFTC
Did with agcnz on a day long caching trip. Co-ordinates over 11m out.. Found this lying on the ground.. Left it where we found it..
Looks like we are chasing a few other cachers today. 10.30am and already 3 other entries for the morning. TFTC
Like everyone we drove to the wrong hall to start with but soon corrected.Still it was a good search to find the cache.Thanks.
Well here was a challenge for us. Like tmann421 before us, we could see the cache but couldn't reach it. We were about to give up when we decided to have another go. Back to the car for a hiking pole and with K crawling under a wee way plus the full length of the pole we got there in the end. Phew! Placed back where we thought it should have been. NINO TFTC
Took quite a while to find this one - the wind? had moved it right under structure. I had to get a very long branch and hook it out. SL returned it to correct location I think TFTC
No joy at this spot, searched where the hint told me to go BUT it seems that there was no cache at GZ, may pay to check.
A straightforward find, but the cache seemed very precariously balanced where we found it, so we replaced it a few centimetres away in a secure location. TFTC
WOW, FTF, could not believe my eyes when I took the log book out and no pen marks , TFTC
