The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.
I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Greetings from Singapore! Second dnf GRADEM cache. Noticed many DNFs on Gradem caches so decided to give a pass on the rest [xx(]

Owner might want to check on these.

Have been out on a few occasions with geo-son and geo-wife and had no luck in locating this one. Can see no recent posts so if someone can please check if it is still there. Not sure of how good coordinates are due to relocation.
 
06-Jan-12
While working in the area I decided to scout this one out. Drove the GeoTruck, to within 10 metres of GZ, co-ordinates were spot on. An easy find as Gradem nanos go. SL TFTC Gradem

2nd find of the day with Team AngelT. Couple of muggles about, lucky we had 6 geokids to play on equipment and provide good cover! TFTH

Yeah Mrs FelixII so quick grab the nano and sit down - signed the log. Thanks gradem.
 
23-Dec-11
Mrs Felix sat down last night to make out a caching list for today. Aiming to reach 40 caches today. We joined forces with Everlasting for an all day assault southside!

Finally Mrs Felix, gets a find. Walked straight up to it and pulled out a cache?

Our very first attempt on our very first day and no luck Sad We weren't exactly sure what size cache we were looking for. Gave up and went for one larger in size elsewhere for a confidence boost, then came back to this one later in the day after a couple of other finds. Still couldn't locate it Sad

We won't let this defeat us and will be back again in the near future!

Found while doing a sweep of the area on our way south after spending yesterday - Father's Day in Perth. Co-ords let us right to it.

TFTC - good hiding spot, though a little off-put as description said it contained a pencil, which it certainly isn't big enough for!
 
17-Aug-11
Thanks Capanira for the heads up on the mistake in listing ie pencil. It originally had a different container which contained a pencil but I had trouble with muggles and had to change container and location slightly.
 
15-Aug-11
Continuing on gradem's parkland journey to this playground cache, again impossible to search for if any muggles about. Certainly picked a good day today to find this one as the wind is even fiercer now, and the rain continues to fall. Found after looking in a couple of spots and then with relief sought the shelter of the geomobile again. Thanks for the hunt gradem.
 
17-Jul-11
TFTC - finally found it. Our first real micro cache
 
12-Jul-11
Came back and had another look. I’m constantly amazed when I find the cache where I searched previously. Someone is playing tricks on me!!!

Thanks gradem.

No luck today, as an adult male I always get a little nervous searching children’s play ground equipment without the kids. Mine are adults but no grandkids yet.

Thanks gradem.
 
17-Jun-11
No family today, but fortunately no muggles either otherwise we would have to have walked away. A quick find in a spot we have seen used before.
Thanks, Robmc.
 
17-Jun-11
We probably wouldn't have looked for this one if anyone at all had been about.
Cache was found in one of the first places that we checked.
Thanks gradem

Third Time lucky! This one bugged us, But Queen khaki discovered this straight away this time, The excitement over took self control as she did a discreet little jig!
 
14-May-11
Mrs AusTrackers turn to walk away and Mr AusTrackers to find the cache where she had just looked. TFTH
 
21-Apr-11
I came along and found this fairly easily but didn't bring a pen so came back to sign it on Easter morning and got caught in a downpour. Had to hide out under one of the 1 square metre platforms and that didn't quite keep me from the rain. TFTC!
 
20-Apr-11
Arriving at GZ, it was apparent that only a few possibilities existed for the whereabouts of this cacahe. While I quickly checked the obvious locations the eagle eyed Mrs Jacaro followed me up finding the NANO in the first place that I had checked out. She continues to make me so very proud!! TFTC.
 
19-Apr-11
Saw that this one had been replaced so came by and found it today.

Thanks for the cache.

Had to drop off a DVD at the library nearby so went for a late evening walk with Ella the geo-pooch. At GZ, searched all the equipment, though had a feeling the cache and hide would be similar to another one nearby. As he had already found it, I called my brother to confirm and am now not quite sure whether the cache is actually still there. If it's gone again, perhaps stronger magnets would be helpful?? Thanks for the walk anyway...
 
30-Jan-11
My sat nav was having some trouble navigating in this newish area, it thought that all the roads which lead right up to GZ were bushland, so I just winged it on my own Smile Lucky for me there was no one around today, I had the place to myself. I searched a few different spots and then found the cache pretty quickly, signed the log and headed on my way.

Thanks for the cache gradem!
 
28-Jan-11
Nice easy find. TFTC.
 
23-Jan-11
Replaced cache today, hopefully it won't get muggled!
 
22-Jan-11
This cache is no longer there, I have the magnet but despite searching in the sand no cache.
 
22-Jan-11
Well I only found the magnet, no cache around. I am claiming it as a find but if you are not happy with that I will change. I have the magnet as ' proof of the pudding' and confirmation from Me&B who found it a few days ago, that I had the exact spot.
It is not surprising that it became dislodged, kiddies are very energetic!
 
15-Jan-11
After doing earlier gradems I knew where to go and found it without using GPS geodog loves the ducks and their offerings.
 
15-Jan-11
It's been a slow week for caching after returning to work, so I decided to search for eight of gradem's caches this morning. This was the first, and it hadn't been logged when I left home at 6:00am. At the GZ I had to wait for one muggle to leave, before I found the cache easily in the first place I searched. But I only managed a 2TF at 6:35am. TFTC
 
15-Jan-11
Found it.
 
15-Jan-11
nice quick grab...thanks again gradem
 
14-Jan-11
WanderingAus wandered by, having dropped into home for a quick pit stop I noticed this one had been published, so I did a quick 'Send to my GPS' and headed out the door. What I hadn't noticed was the publishing of GRADEM 015 and GRADEM 016Red Face, so I missed the chance to hunt them down for FTF honors.Twisted

Parked the geoPajero, did a 'Go' on the gpsr as I headed into the park, thought "that looks a likely spot", and just before the gpsr caught up to me I made an extremely quick and easy GAFF 0 find, happy to claim the FTF. Big GrinCool

My find No 3280, T finders card, LNSL.

*Recommended* *Overall Experience: 2* *FTF*
