Met Pieter naar gezocht maar niet gevonden. Is kennelijk niet meer aanwezig.

Temporarily disabled -- someone cleared out the bushes! Sad

Several DNF's and no response from owner, needs reviewer attention (as does this owner's other cache.)- I haven't attempted this one but noticed the situation is the same here as at the other one I am requesting assistance for.
 
15-Oct-11
Is anything happening here? Can the owner check this please.
 
25-Sep-11
No luck here today. Given that there have now been a few DNFs since it was last found back in April, could the owner please check whether the cache is still there.

Took quite a while to find it today - certainly plenty of signs of searching or muggle activity in the cache area. SL -TB TFTC

Saw this cache when it was published and was always wondering why it was called so, finally had the chance to investigate the area and find out why it was called so. arriving at GZ on a very gloomy day, was a bit cloudy but the weather wasnt too bad, decided to change my footwear before venturing of to the cache, arriving near GZ I immediately realised the meaning of the cache, very clever, would have never know about this location if it wasnt for caching. Following the GPS I managed to track the cache down very quickly and signed and returned back to its hiding spot and then I was back off again, what an interesting spot for a cache, thanks for bringing me here, TFTC TNLNSL (3183)

Quick find, nicely tucked away from the potential presence of muggles. TFTC

Found the panda, and the cache. An interesting little area to visit.

Quick find today. Windy and a bit of rain kept any muggles away!
 
21-Apr-11
Quite well hidden, one time we thought we found it when we hadn't, but in the end we found the geocache under a flax bush in the undergrowth. Smile

Spent quite some time searching, but no luck.

Pandas, scmandas: Have since renamed this cache 'Save Kylie' for my own purposes, seeing as I threatened the existence of my own species. Took a spill at ground zero, thanks to some wet grass, and landed in toi toi - which, for the record, is not very welcoming. It did land me closer to ground zero, though.

Took the wrong approach and had to do a bit of bush-bashing to get to the cache area. A quick find once I arrived at GZ, and a much quicker return to the car via the correct route. Signed log, TFTC.

#723. Found on the way home from work after a couple of minutes. I was initially a bit concerned at the proximity of the park, but GZ is well away from it and in a nicely concealed location for searching. Thanks for the bit of exercise, SL TFTC. -tb

Interesting exercise trying to find it at night under the stars! Smile

Removed cache container from plastic bags (as per suggestion from -gonefishing- ) - re-hidden in same place.

NB: TY -gonefishing-

A nice spot in the middle of a new suburbia on a gloriously sunny day. Who would have believed it after yesterday's cloud burst! Found easily enough after a couple of minutes looking - a few confusing geo-trails here to throw me off the scent. The log book was just starting to feel a little damp - ironically it is probably the outer plastic bags doing that. They usually trap condensation against the cache and can make it get damp pretty fast. It is a good container - I say trust it to keep dry on its own!
TFTC.

Popped out with the youngest to get another sprig for his football boots and then dropped by this cache. A young couple of potential "Jedi" Knights were practicing their lightsaber techniques by the playground as we walked to the end of the park. A quick find just as it started to spit. Log quickly completed, cache tucked away in its bed and a fast stroll back to the car as the liquid stuff from above was starting to get heavier. Glad we were in the car after that, as it got darker and the rain got heavier! TFTC.

Had a search before work this morning. Took a wee while to locate, but it was pretty much where the GPS said it was. Nice area of green in the urban jungle. TNLN SL TFTC

FTF @ 17:45 Big Grin. Haven't had a new cache pop up within a reasonable distance for a while so headed straight for this one when the notification came through. A nice little park and cache in hand after a quick search. TNLN, TFTC.

2TF at 6.20pm, took a while to find, while poking around I heard a noise in a bush and got a bit of a fright to see Nosredneh amongst the blackberries. Using all our eyes we soon had the cache in hand. Nice to meet you Nosredneh. -Easy Red Rider TB + From Eh? to Zed! coin and + Travel GPS Tag J1 TB. SL TFTC
