Easy find on my way to a BBQ at Monbulk.
Not too much parking available, but luckily not too many walking muggles so I was able to make the quick find...

Reading Meerkat's main log I will have to drop by here again and see what its upgraded to..

Thanks Meerkat27, its not too often I can say that I found a unique hide technique/cache.
Now I've only got 11 Favourite points remaining..

Out for an afternoons caching with Mr Coffee and the Coffee Clan.
This was our second visit to this cache with a DNF a few weeks back.
Today after quite a search it looked like another DNF when Mr Coffee spotted the small log laying on the ground. We looked around and found part of the container and after signing the log put it back together as best we could.
Thanks for the cache
 
26-Jan-11
thank you for the heads up i will have a look tonight and fix or temp disable until i replace it

Whilst out with Team Crackers today we stopped off for this cache. We searched and searched but to no luck and where just about give up when Shelby mentioned a spoiler pic.
It was at this time I noticed the log sheet on the ground and a further search located the cache container some distance away.
We put together some theories as it was no longer magnetic and made some temporary fixes, however It will require a maintenance check ASAP
Many thanks,
Regards Mr.Coffee and the "McGivor" Coffee Clan

Found while out doing some night caching. Nice quick driveby with no muggles about at 3:00 am. Found in the first place I put my hand. Thanks for the hide.

Tricky for the little geokids but a quick grab for geodad. TFTC

Found with LouiseAnn. Pit stop in Belgrave, thought better grab this one while we are here. Had to wait for some muggles to move on before we coudl grab and sign. Cool hide. Thanks.

Good hide! I liked this one. Thanks Meerkat27 Smile

We pulled up here at this one and were happy that we found a car park only metres from where the GPS said we should be. This happiness was short lived as it seemed like some one had opened the floodgates as muggles were coming and going all over the place making a discreet search very difficult. After about half an hour we decided to give up and try our luck at The Belmont Tower and after finding that we thought that we knew what we were looking for so we returned to find the muggle traffic had dropped off significantly but after fifteen minutes we still couldn't locate the cache.
We will try again sometime when it's not so busy

[blue]My 300th cache![/blue]

What a clever container, and in such a busy spot.

Having just found The Belmont lookout tower, I was able to walk right up to GZ, snatch the prize and sit on the nearby bench to do the paperwork.

Well done, Meerkat27, on a fantastic camouflaged cache. Very Happy

Our first cache in Australia.
Amazing weather conditions for Aussie.
We had rain, but as dutch people as known we didn't stop and continueed.

The cache was originally hidden, but due to my wives experience quickly found.

We found this cache today at 6:00pm as the 3rd of 6 on route to meet up with Alansee and Rebel Acts for our Bats in the Forest Frenzy. We stopped in Belgrave for a bite to eat before heading on up the hill and we thought that we would grab this one while we were here. A very close spot to three of our caches. Thanks from D & S B-A.

Got to GZ and the GPS was sending me somewhere unexpected. However a casual but keen perusal of the obvious soon had the good hide. Thanks Meerkat 27.

Found with Tank47 at 12:51, though it was actually he (Peter) who located this tiny cache. Thanks.

Found at 12:56 with Jezarocks on the 13th Cache trail. This is not a Micro it is a NANO, took a little while of meticulous searching but had it finally in hand. Very clever hide came across a few of these in Perth. TFTC Meerkat27.

Nice to have a cache so close to home (less than 400m!).
8:30pm - Things getting busy at Belgrave on a Friday night - muggles aplenty!
Silly me - forgot a pen. Ducked off to Safeway to buy one (okay, okay - didn't really need to do that when I was so close to home! Red Face)
Got put off by a little decoy - lost a bit of time and probably looked a little suspicious.
Found what I was after, signed log and was off.
Thanks Meerkat27.

[font=Comic Sans MS]A very clever cache that I found and logged just prior to it being moved and renamed for technical reasons.
I will log this as found but if Meerkat27 requires that I go back and find it in it's new location I shall. But for now I shall remain as 2TF on this one and congrats to LeanneH on her FTF on this cache. Very Happy

Sorry, I had an out of date GZ for a Rabbittoh cache (and he'd never added the FINAL waypoint, let alone updating it, boo, hiss!) and this cache is too close to it.

I'll email the owner with the cache that needs to be avoided.
