Last time I called by here I got muggled out, however this time the coast was clear and a quick retrieve and log was achieved. TFTC
Sometimes it pays to look once and do it properly instead of quick glance then looking elsewhere

[teal]Last day of our 5 day Easter caching roadtrip. Today we were heading home to Greymouth from Nelson.[/teal]
Noone around so it was a nice quick P&G right next it. Thanks for the cache, and sorry for the late log

An interesting bike ride around the streets culminating in a signed log. Clever placement.
Glad the clue was so specific, had to really poke around to grab the cache. All quiet today though so no dramas with muggles unless the folk having a bbq spotted my head peaking over their fence. TFTC
Thankfully the area was deserted this morning as I didn't have the junior fozzmiesters with me to provide cover. A quick find - TFTC bumandworker
Nice quick find, managed to find it with some kids playing near by, sneaky sneaky. TFTC
After failing on a night run the previous day, including a close encounter of a fecal kind by Dr Pills, GPYesss got this one on our return during daylight hours. Tftc.
Found on the second visit with all the inlaws after what we should only describe as a "crappy" attempt at nighttime that saw Dr Pills smelling somewhat offensive. Note to all - take torch when caching at night to avoid unknown surprises. This is what caching memories are made of !!! Thanks for a nice wee cache !!

Checked cache....missing. Replaced with a micro with slight move. Extreme stealth required now.
With that size container in that park this should have been easy. But I searched what I thought was everywhere and didn't find it.
Easy find on an afternoons caching round Wakefield with Hazedarus. Stopped for coffee. Nice peaceful reserve until neighbours seemed to compete to see who had the loudest motor mower 
A lovely Sunday afternoon but all was quiet at GZ - no muggles around. Took a bit of searching but we found it ok. TFTC.

Appreciated the fact that the cache was well into the reserve, away from muggles. Good one. TFTC
a few minutes early for an appointment so just enough time for a walk in the park. TY.
After a bit of a slip slidey trip over Kerr hill Road and almost hitting a deer that decide to run across the road we were quite happy to get back into civilisation apart from the dogs that started barking at us as we came out to the car,Lucky no one came out to see what they were barking at as Mr L was dressed up like he was ready to go hunting lol,Easy find on our way home,thanks for the cache
Nice park. Played here for a wee while till some younger kids came and made me feel really old. Thanks for the cache =)
6882 No problems with muggles in Anslow Place today… rain is a great leveller for the avid geocacher, TFTC.
A cute little park to stop long enough to have a bite to eat - it also had a play item I had never seen before but am sure had the capacity to make you fell very sick very quickly !!! - no did not try it out !!!! signed log thanks for the cache

Quick find cheers

Spied someone staring at something in his hand, some distance away. Just the right shape for a Garmin.
Got to chat to TikvaNZ for a few minutes while signing log.

I was trying to turn right from Pitfure road onto the main road, but after a few minutes waiting for a break in the traffic decided to turn left instead and get this cache. Getting back onto the main road from here was an easy left turn. Found the cache in the hands of the butterfly_lady. The first time I had bumped into another geocacher at a cache. Initially I tried to be inconspicious thinking they were muggles, but they noticed I was a geocacher straight away! I then recognised her from her profile I'd looked up the night before as she had retrieved a TB I'd placed yesterday. TFTC
Where did the old fort go? Jeez, all these new playgorund attractions don't quite meet up with the fun times we had on the old construction that used to be here. Oh well, progress I suppose! TNLN Thanks
Quick find and very pleased that nobody was availing themselves of the equipment. TFTC #1649
A nice reserve in a part of Wakefiled we had never been to before. The 5th cahce for an afternoon visit to the Village. TNLN TFTC
Took a while to locate this one in the rain and cold. Must remember to have better footwear and a jacket.
#1645 (4/26 on day 2 in Nelson). Very quiet here today, and a quick find (despite some sloppy car navigation on my part). TFTC.
No worries finding this one done on the way home from the Wakefield Fire Station open day
Last cache to find on an early morning caching run out in this direction. No problems with the cache here. It was after leaving that my troubles started... Pulled out of Martin Ave onto the main road thinking I was already in the 70k zone only to see the sign in front of me along with a police car heading in my direction. argh!! flashing lights and a $120 fine later, I was on my way... [:(!] Policeman thought I looked familiar, maybe I've been spotted lurking in too many flax bushes 
Anyway TFTC, Biggles.

The 'OleStomping Ground for the Grandson who lives only 200 metres from GZ. His mate who joined us lives across the street. No worries on this one! Bryn had the cache in hand while the GPS was still only pointing in a general directioin. Much fun! Thanks
