Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

A Team attack on the clever hides of imhidingsa and others at Strath. Another DNF. GZ seemed to be on business premises that were open. come back again.
 
12-May-12
Had a quick look but no luck too many muggles about
 
01-May-12
No luck here tonight....
 
25-Mar-12
Spent a while looking for this one with no luck today.
 
25-Mar-12
No luck here today Insada and I did a pretty thorough search in all the obvious places and some not so obvious but to no avail we will return.
 
26-Jan-12
Found at 3:15 PM. But only just! I was just about to give up when I heard Nanna say those immortal words, 'found it'.
Clever (Hmmm! maybe devious)hide!

26-Jan-12
Found the cache on the way to Clayton for a day of caching and fun. This almost eluded us but geodaughter found it. It deserves two favourite points but we could only give it one.
 
29-Dec-11
Ha ha ha good one
 
27-Dec-11
Had to wait for some muggles to d3epart then started my search. Finally found after checking in all the wrong places. Interesting container! TFTC imhidingsa
 
25-Dec-11
Found on second attempt with a little help from 12drawer. SL TFTC Happy Christmas. Visiting from UK
 
27-Nov-11
The garage was open for busines, but strategicly parked the car, tinkered around under the hood for a moment, then surreptitiously grabbed the cache. Thanks imhidingsa!
 
14-Nov-11
first cache ever! and what a fun one Smile need to open/deconstruct pen to get to log
 
05-Nov-11
bad day in the area..only new...will go back
 
09-Oct-11
Finally got this one off my list. Previously impossible with all the muggles about. Today (early Sunday morning) only an occasional vehicle going by and the station closed, so able to search thoroughly. No log in the cache. No problems! Put one in! May need a pair of tweezers to get it out. Thanks imhidingsa for another sneaky and creative cache.
 
03-Oct-11
tricky one. Nearly pulled the whole cache apart but no log to be seen.
 
20-Sep-11
Found it. But didn't know what to physically log as it was only a pen. Haha. Amazing hide though!
 
20-Sep-11
Found the cache but couldn't find a log to write in. Amazing hide
 
28-Aug-11
Another imhidingsa cache we wern't able to find today Sad
 
20-Aug-11
From previous logs and the title, I'm fairly sure I knew what I was looking for, but I failed to find it.
 
20-Jun-11
If someone going this way wanted a little something extra to look for, ga2590 is a gnome nearby looking for a lift.
Big Grin
 
19-Jun-11
A quick stop here as well, no muggles to be seen anywhere! The petrol station was closed. Good hide.
Thanks imhidingsa for the cache. Smile
 
04-Jun-11
This cache was the purpose of the days caching run.

Wanted to get here before the garage opened.

This turned out to be an easy find.

Quick find early in the morning. Nice hide. Caching with Team Waldron today who scored the find.
TFTC
 
21-May-11
This is a hard one to find been back twice now
 
18-May-11
Had to abandon the search because the muggle worked on one of the pumps. Sad Thanks for the hunt.
 
26-Apr-11
After a DNF on my first attempt, with all the businesses nearby closed managed to discover the cache. Very tricky hide. TFTC imhidingsa
 
24-Apr-11
Very tricky but what a great spot! TFTC
 
23-Apr-11
Very clever! Really liked this one-perhaps because we were the one of the group who found it! Smile Love the bikes!

09-Apr-11
Got here nice and early Razz, had a good look around [^], but couldn't turn up the booty [xx(]; so it's a DNF for us as well.
Thanks I'mHidingSA.
 
25-Mar-11
DNF, searched in the dark to no avail.
 
14-Mar-11
Even though the business's were all shut and with an extra clue thanks to CPWanderer was still unable to locate it. Think it might pay to check it out to see if it is still there. Will watch this one and come back for another try.
 
14-Mar-11
Bugger. With no one around still no luck. Could not figure what I was looking for.
 
12-Mar-11
Pretty sure this one has gone missing.
 
26-Feb-11
Cleaver Hide No Log to sign Owner to rectify !
 
15-Feb-11
I'd called past this one not long after it was published but could see no way of having a good look for it during work hours.
Tonight Ingrid and I were doing some after dinner caching - travelled over from Meadows, and not too many people around so we could have a decent look.
Interesting hide. Even once I found the cache container I wasn't sure where the log was - but got to it eventually.
TFTC imhidingsa Surprised)

We have visited this one about four or five times without success and, but for a hint from a fellow cacher, would never have found it.
A very clever hide.
SL
Thanks imhidingsa for the experience.
 
25-Jan-11
Found It!
I thought I had checked everywhere when I finally spotted this one!
Log was quite difficult to remove.
TFTC
 
22-Jan-11
You are an evil person!
I must make sur you never meet Zytheran or my life will truely be hell!!!!
Cheers
 
21-Jan-11
I even used the cache container to write the log. How neat was that. You can get a good cuppa around here if you ask nicely. Clear skies [^] There is no pencil in the cache.
 
18-Jan-11
Nice hide. Found with Bronsen. TFTC
 
18-Jan-11
Done this at around 4 in the morning no one around. Found with Mooshell .TFTC. SL.
 
Another smart hide for us to do on our walk.
Well hidden, almost thought we wouldnt find
TFTC
 
03-Jan-11
Area was nice and quiet today but still did not find it after about 15 minutes of looking. Found a pen LID but that's about it.
 
02-Jan-11
Second visit to this cache armed with a helper The Penny Drops who did the deed. A very sneeky hide. Thanks to imhidingsa for the cache and hunt.
 
02-Jan-11
This one is just nasty, I love it !
Out caching with Bregor today who previously searched this area so thoroghly it made my quick search look better than it was. Hey I 'll take that credit thanks Roger.

Your hides are fantastic and I think if I did not have a helper today a few DNF might have been logged.
Thanks imhidingsa for an awesome afternoon finding some of your caches.
 
01-Jan-11
We tried to find this around 10.00 am on New Years Day. Everything was on our side as the surounding outlets were closed and no one about. 4 sets of eyes looked for 15 minutes. We did wonder if it had disappeared, but I have just checked the logs and we just were not good enough yet.

This one had us stumped for a few minutes but we got there in the end. Great hide. TFTC
 
27-Dec-10
we sooooooo get where you are coming from..... Su spotted it, but it took a few minutes to find it. SL
 
26-Dec-10
spuddymoore thought I would struggle with this one.
Had to teach the young fella a lesson!
TFTC.
Cheers.

When I saw this cache come on line I thought my in laws, who live next door to GZ, would make the virgin find. Two weeks later they still have not found the cache. So the pro from the big smoke visited for lunch today and found the little sucker after 5 mins of searching.
The bike shop is very busy on the weekend. No one around today, but me and the flies.
Toad of Toad Hall and the Dragon are instructed to yell BUSTED if they spot a geocacher in search mode.
 
22-Dec-10
On our evening walk around the town, and decided it was time to start checking off some of the new caches that have been poping up.
A popular spot on those nice days, as many travelers congregate at this place for a break.

Log is very nearly full.

a little late logging these caches did this on a caching day out with froghoppin
 
19-Dec-10
Found after a day down south at 11pm well after the shops had closed, eagle eyes geo son spotted this one for a different challenging hide, love your ideas TFTC
 
18-Dec-10
No find for me this morning in the time allowed.

Came back later but the business was open and there were too many people.
 
18-Dec-10
our only DNF for today [v]. The GPS couldnt make up its mind where it wanted to be & being out in the open, felt a bit exposed so I didnt hang around too long.
 
17-Dec-10
Even after a fairly extensive search we had no luck.
Satloc was all over the place, varying up to 12m while we were there. That's our excuse anyway!
Will have another look next time in Strath.
Thanks anyway for the hunt.

Nice and easy cache on our way to Murray Bridge for a few days.

14-Dec-10
Found with spuddymoore and moores@victor. Clever cache.
TFTC
 
14-Dec-10
Whooo Hooooo!!!!! Firt to Find.(at 6.30am.... was amazed to see a still empty (little)log) Took a "short" detour on my way from Murray Bridge to Birdwood when i saw this hadnt been found the previous day!!!! Thankyou!! Thankyou!!! Thankyou!!! for a clever micro that wasnt a film container or mint tin!! Took me longer than it should have as, with so much metal at the GZ i assumed it would be a magnetic, so i looked in what i thought were the appropriate places..... Having found others by this ilustrious cacher i realised i'd have to look for something different!!! As stated in the cache notes..... its all in the name!!! A clever cache(though it wont take long for the log to fill!!! TFTC
