Lots of DNF's here and no maintenance from the CO. Maybe its time this space was freed up?

Magical Family - jinta29 had to DNF your cache Magical Pranksters Amble 9 on 21/09/2015 4:40 pm. I searched but didn't find the cache
missed first time around. going to try again soon, now that i know what a 'bison tube' is.
Originally logged under family caching name. Clan- Wallace.Now relogging under new name.
Finished the Star Trek series & this one was so close it just had to be turned into a Smiley. TFTC
I was across the road collecting the Star trek series and thought I'd jump the fence and grab this one. Had to wait for the muggles to clear first. Tftc.
[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.
I like it

Back in Perth for a week. Found on the way to the hotel (with a small detour). Thanks Magical Family
While doing another series nearby becided to grab this one as well. Looked in the wrong place first but luckily found it after a few minutes. Tftc
Searching round with my cousin and looked for a while and read the awesome clue and found it good find
Found this fella quite exposed. Signed log and returned to a likely looking spot.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Might need to check if it's still there.. Pretty sure we know where it 'should' have been. Only a pencil on the ground in its place. ?
My companions wanted to leave but I was determined to find it, and just got to it in time! The co-ordinates were a tiny bit off and made it a bit harder.
I nearly missed this one and left it out in the open!! Lucky I doubled checked and the clue was spot on. Tftc
Grabbing a new series in the area, how could we go past picking up another smiley, I found it where others had looked, sometimes you just get lucky.

Just relogging under a new account. Signed log under an old account of dcorunna on this day
I can see why its been easy to find. I dont understand why geocachers cant put back a cache the way it was found. Ok find it now and the hint no longer applies.
Been here before, thought I had logged the DNF but I hadn't. Came back today and it was a quick find. Surprised I didnt get it last time, there may have been a lot of tree trimmings lying around then because today i spotted the camo from ten meters away.

I must say this is the longest amble we have ever taken!! I am sure we started it this time last year and still have one to go! Tftc AK/AP
Headed down the Roe Highway today & the traffic was awful so we found an exit to get off & somehow found ourselves in this area! We parked about 80m away and made our way across the park towards the cache. A quick find was made & thankfully not much traffic about to wonder what we were doing

Easy find thanks to the clue. The first of a few for our 31 days caching. We were doing a sausage sizzle at the shop down the road.
Checked on cache all ok. Trees being cut down and area being prepared for wood chipping.
No luck here in the early morning dew but did forget to check the hint beforehand. Note that there is evidence of significant recent vandalism of the palm tree at GZ.
A big day out today, caching with Mistraluna. Had an awesome time, beautiful weather for a winters day. Lots of caches found and even managed to fit in a shopping trip as well. SL TFTC Amstrakid
Oh dear, have gotten so far behind in logging my finds over the past few days, so now have to catch up. Found this one on a caching run with Luna Maya. Lots of places to look, but easy find after reading the hint. Am giving this one a favourite, for the whole series. Thanks AmstradKid
Need nine to make one hundred for the month and what better opportunity....the series of nine Amstrad Ambles. Started with number nine, lets see how we go.
Yep, an easy find. hopefully the rest will be similar. Keep tuned.

As is occasionally the case with AP caches, if in doubt dig, and the dig some more! You must be tarnished with the same brush. Thanks for the cache; I love these camo bisons.
unfortunately I only had time for a quick look but came up empty handed will need to come back with more time! Thanks
Out on Perths first hot day for quite some time and I am hoping that the caches don't involve too much hard work. Well that was a dumb thing to hope for......
Thought this one was going to be a little difficult but boy o boy....at first I was a little apprehensive walking into the area with the heat and the thought of snakes in the back of my mind, and once at the top my fears didn't change. Focusing on quickly finding the cache, I read that some weeding had been performed. Looked there, nope, looked over there, nope, what about under there, under here......geez...widened the search into the long grass but didn't look too long there. Anyway, after just about enough, I tried our original starting place again and soon had the cache in hand. Phewww, hope the rest of the day goes better.........

This one took a lot of searching and i was ready to give up. Gave it another go and the clue did help and we finally found the well hidden cache. TFTH
This has been on my list to do for quite some time now, glad to finally have a smilie

Had a big day out caching with iluvtrekking in a 13 hour marathon and recording our PB in number of finds. Think the previous finder made our search and find a whole lot easier.
Cache number 22 found during a day of caching with The Machman. The clouds were grey, but our outlook was not!

Out Caching with Tanzanite for the day.
This one took a bit of uncovering.
Tanzanite cleared a lot of the rubbish to one side to clear the area to facilitate a search.
Didn't quite need a pointy object....but it was close !!
Thanks for another Cache... you have nearly filled out entire day today !!!!

With FelixII for the day... Glad we return back and Mr FelixII find it. Phew!!. Thanks.
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!
Well initially here, we struggled. Okay so that's an understatement, we were put off by all the rubbish that has been dumped at GZ in recent times. It had us looking in completely the wrong spots. We tried the phone a friend line, but alas our friend was otherwise occupied, someone still working today???
Off to the next, but returned armed with advice! Sure enough there it was. I hate to admit it, but Mrs Felix looked there, but alas, not well enough! Doh!
TFTC AmstradKid (hmmm I think)

This is my 2nd visit to this one, I brought the chainsaw and whipper snipper to help find it this time. After a quick search of the GZ I found the little beastie! Cute little cache, I can say that now after I had found it. I was saying others things about it the other day and the owner. SL TFTC
While looking for a suitable place for a cache I thought I would have a go at this on the way back. Well the GZ was located easy enough. The area needs some attention by the gardeners, it is overgrown, it has a large amount palm fronds on the ground, some are spikey. The description does not give much away and the last one to find was jacaro44 in April 2011. There were some seasoned DNF's previously so I don't feel so bad.
Although the cache was located in an obvious location, this area is very untidy considering that it is intended to promote the area! TFTC
With time running out DNF thanks for a fun three hours Amstrad. Six out of nine was my score an't going to be hard to beat but it was fun
That is one vicious palm! Lots of little places to hide but a fairly fast find. Had fun watching traffic to see if anyone noticed me up there. Then came out of the bushes in front of a guy walking his dog! LOL!
I brought my bike down to ride around for this series. I enjoyed the bike paths and found the caches easy enough. TFTC
Wow, the last one of the series, already... When this series was first released, I saw the numbers attached to each cache, and was waiting for the rest of the series to get published, to fill in all the missing numbers Now I know the numbers are related to the coords, so I was pleased to be able to find all of the series today.
This one took a bit of looking, and there were a few red herrings about, and the palm tree did its best to stop me from getting to GZ by stabbing my leg, but I didn't let that deter me, and soon had the cache in hand. Thanks for this cache, and the fun series AmstradKid! I look forward to doing the other series' soon.

We thought this one would take us a while after reading the logs but we managed to find it quickly. Luck was on our "side" at this cache
Had no luck with this one. It may have been getting too dark of perhaps the coords were leading us astray - either way, it had nothing to do with our own ineptitude Im sure ;P
