Time to let it go, as much as geo-mum won't like it.
The garden is too well maintained to hide it anywhere near it, and the older folk are wary of the younger folk with their gadgets.

Time to have a check and a re-think about the location.
(You are correct, it's NOT in the garden).
(You are correct, it's NOT in the garden).
We have visited this cache several times & it has been missing every time, including today. We do not want to trample the beautiful garden & given that we believe it was on the bench we are certain that it is now gone. Perhaps the owners of this garden are removing it due to the high number of people trying to find it & a better location could be sought?
Thanks anyway Pirate Rock.

Came back after speaking with other geocachers no in locations discussed. May have been muggled
Over the Easter long weekend, we couldn't help but find a few of these goodies Mr. Pearce decided to look on the Geocaching Map and saw that there were heaps that we hadn't found in Gawler, so off we went.. 45 minutes later, we were cache-ready at the Gawler Central Station.. Anywho, we've just gone off 300, so we're aiming towards 400! *fingers crossed* Not long now!
Unfortunately, this happened to be one of the DNF's We searched and search then read some logs and found that we weren't the only one.. bummer.. aww well, maybe next time

A beautiful garden. I had a seat on every seat and thought about what I was doing wrong but still couldn't find.
Bring some bread as the magpies are so friendly you can hand feed them.

Just had to look for this while my daughter visited a friend nearby.
Nice neat gardens, tiny cache found after a pause on the seat to look around.
A nano, but in its defence it was not too hidden

I looked at this item about 3 times and missed it... The Muggles asked us if were found it yet... they knew what we were doing just sitting back giggling..
So now we know they know, it was time to go forth and look hard... and what do you know there it is in the place I already looked
Thanks for the cache Pirate Rock

We had a couple near by who were interested in our hunt They knew of geocaching but didn't do it themselves This little bugger blended in soo well TFTC
Took a few minutes of searching while mum looked at the flowers and the boy went in for the find. Extracted the tiny log, unrolling it just a bit, initialed as directed and back it goes! TFTC Pirate Rock!
Couldn't see at first after a good look or so I thought, so sat down to see what I was doing wrong and low and behold I saw it. TFTC.
Gotcha!
As nanos go, a relatively easy one.
This is a lovely little garden.

3962nd total find at around 15:33
We thought we may not be able to do this cache, as a gardner arrived on a huge ride on mower, and deposited a trailer right next to GZ, just as we approached from the other path.
Luckily he was too busy concentrating on his job to take more than a passing glance at us.
Took: Nothing
Left: Nothing

beautiful butterfly babies, never got the chance to fly![^] beautiful park beautiful monument and saw the most beautiful bird in the trees, me and bobby g found fairly easy sat and reflected on what could have been what is and what will be! TFTC - very much!![:X]
Needed a cache for today: felt a bit tired and didn't feel like walking or doing a multi.
This one came up on my phone and fitted what I wanted perfectly.
A lovely spot scented with violets as I walked in.
A nice seat upon which to rest.
Beautiful Magpies which came so close I could almost have touched them and I guess the Magpie youngster was the only beautiful baby I was likely to see as I didn't enter the hospital
Nice easy locus cache. I SL and returned cache then just sat enjoying the park for a while, when a man turned up and started handfeeding the Magpies

Found with Roostaman at 1400 on our South Australia odyssey. Just grabbing a few caches on the way back to Williamstown after doing the Northern Expressway Bike series. A nice quick find in a beautiful spot
Thanks Pirate Rock.
Thanks Pirate Rock.
Found with Fred6603 on our SA adventure trek. A great day for a bike ride on the NXY series & time for a few more caches as well. A nice hide and no muggles about today. TFTC,

Another part of Gawler that we would have missed. A very lovely spot. Thanks for bringing us here.
The co-ords are spot on making this one a quick find. Thankfully as we had to wait out several coming and going while we held the cache in our hands. Once on our bike an elderly gentleman parked himself at GZ. SL TFTC
Of course it took longer to re-roll the logsheet, than to find it!
Nice spot to reflect...
Thanks

Another find on a day trip with schnail and bexta. Would have missed it were it not for a sharp eyed schnail. TFTC
Lucky there wasn't a soul in sight, but I knew where to head. Found it after a couple of minutes. Great hide, TFTC
Took a little while to locate this cheeky bub, GPS had me a little away from GZ, but that's ok, it is a beaut garden. Thanks Pirate Rock for a well-themed cache
Couldn't believe my luck as there were no muggles at GZ. Quick find. Signed log and left without seeing a muggle. Must be a first. TFTC Pirate Rock.
Another nice nano from Pirate Rock.
I don't usually like nano's but the two I did here are exceptions.
Cheers and happy caching.

What a lovely peaceful spot...found while the little Elf was at a Roller skating party nearby.
Embarrassed to say we missed this one and after a couple of recent finds by other cachers too. Saw a spot we thought it would be....but no luck. A beautiful memorial garden, and the roses are a treat just now. TFTC[^]
On what was rather an out of season hot dusty windy day was nice to visit this area and we spent a few minutes sitting and enjoying the spot. TFTC.
Running early for tea,what else to do but grab a few caches.G'day from the millsmob.TFTC
To find a micro with a new log is a pleasure as all the ones I found so far require a degree in origami to get them back into the container [:p]. Beautiful Babies was returned back in its crib perfectly. Finding was also a pleasure as my fingers probed and duly discovered in the first place I thought to look. Loved it! Peaceful, serene location too.

Log book has been replaced. Please ensure that you only initial the logbook, and not sign it - it helps leave room for the next cacher.
Found quickly on a cold, windy morning.
Log book full.
Thanks for the cache Pirate Rock.

We sat down at GZ, wondering where the cache could be, as Mrs TiedyeSmileys spotted it. Log book is full.

After finishing up at the eldest baby's birthday party we thought it was only appropriate to find this cache! We remember coming here almost 5 years ago to meet the first of these beautiful babies and they have gone on to be part of a most beautiful family. Thanks for the party and the cache.
Decided after work to take the children for a walk and find this cache. Quick easy find TFTC
!st find for the day. there were no muggles insight. So I had these lovely gardens to myself. Cleever hide. TFTC
did with the frogs the flips the scoobs and others on the fight for the 100th cache TFTC TNLN
Our last cache of the day, found by torchlight just to make the nano challenge greater, Mrs frog favourite colour TFTC
found in the first place i searched and the cache is my favourite color lol !!
A nice quiet garden. Thanks for the cache. Quick find with Mogni and CPwanderer.
It was my second attempt. I had to call for helpline. I should listen to my gps, not to the comment which put me off. [B)]
Thanks Pirate Rock for the cache.

OMG this was my first micro and wow! lol Found with devilslilsister and Bigblueal
A pleasant small memorial park. The odd thing was the placement of a syringe/sharps container right in the middle. It took us some time to locate the cache as the coordinates were about 8m out. The cache is certainly a nano. TFTC Pirate Rock.
Lovely little memorial park. Amazing to see a director of nursing in place for such a long time.
cheers and thanks for the cache

Very quiet on a sunday afternoon.
We had the area to ourselves so searching was easy and we came up a winner

We had a look for this one, unfortunately we were being watched very closely by a couple of people from the old folks home so we will come back another day!
Out with Freddo and the boys when we got this one in conjunction with the power series caches. Thanks Pirate Rock
Although our tadpoles were born elsewhere, I agree that this hospital does provide great care when needed. A well-kept, pretty garden.

Out caching with Jeremiah Bullfrog and Forest Farmers, senior member, and dicovered this wonderful park. Thanks
A nano
This cache was found easily by geowife. Opened it up to find a nano logbook that you could actually sign Most other nanos are full & you cant sign them. SL TFTC
This area is very nice [^], pity there wasnt a spot for a larger cache here!

A beautiful little spot, and a nice memorial garden. We both searched for this one, and it was only after the spot was checked at least three times that we finally saw it. You might want to audit this log - it appears that some people are above signing . TFTC.
Found on a rainy day while baby D was at Shaznan's Couldn't wait to find this one, Zadow is close to my heart as our son was born at Gawler Hospital this time last year. SL TFTC
I'm sure the babies love this garden. Preddy. At least the baby sized cache was in the first spot I looked. Just as well. Clear skies!
Astro made the find while I turned the car around.
A very nice garden area.

Too tricky for us today. Gave what our GPS said was GZ a really good look over but it eluded us.
