I will have to archive this cache due to finders not replacing cache where it belongs. It is disappointing that people are finding it difficult to locate because of this. I also have trouble locating it and I know where it should be. Thank you to those who found it and enjoyed the challenge. I appreciate the comments.

I went looking for this cache to replace wet log. Unable to find in original position so not able to repair. Will be out of town for 6 weeks and will replace in original position on return. Thanks for the info on condition.
 
21-Jun-14
Yea.....finally found it after a couple of attempts. Log is totally soaked and needs replacing, otherwise ok. TFTC

I have been here before - a couple of times actually. It's been nearly two years since I solved it, and I have since re-solved it to be sure of my numbers. And probably a half dozen searches in that time have continually given me nothing. Nada. But other people kept finding it, so I persisted. Today I was back in town, and with a few minutes to spare in this area I dropped by again. Sadly though I have deleted my saved coords off my GPSrSurprised. But a quick orientation of myself and I was soon in familiar territory. Oh, there it is.

Yep, that quick. I walked up, spotted it and had it in hand in seconds. Lesson to be learned here, stop looking at the GPSr and just look around. Were the coords off?? I couldn't say really. It was perhaps to one side of the area I'd searched in the past, but I'd searched here before. I had a different mental picture last time of what to look for, but I should have noticed this. ce la vie - I have a smilie (finally) here.

Thanks for placing this cache, forward ho. Found it pretty wet, no water in container just on the logsheets. It'll probably dry out given some sun..

Pity the headstones are so hard to read couldn't make sense of this one.
 
30-Sep-13
I don't seem to have much luck with multis. I found reasonable numbers to help me out but couldn't turn up a cache. My respects to those with family here.
 
17-Sep-13
When caching with Daynaduc this morning we did enjoy doing this good multi together. We thought the cache was a very appropiate one indeed.
TFTC forward ho and chance to do yet another offset challenge.
 
17-Sep-13
This was an interesting cache hide to do with Julie&GGs. With our thoughts together we located this well hidden hide. Wink TFTC forward ho
 
08-Sep-13
Couldn't find this one, despite a really good look around. Been here before, and I thought I knew what to look for this time, but I couldn't find that, nor anything else cache-ish either.
 
26-Aug-13
Now if you were to bury people standing up then their brains would eventually sink down into their feet as the corpse rotted Razz
Assuming of course that the people you were burying did not already keep their brains in their feet, like so many Aussie's apparently do Wink

Now down to the practicalities of finding this cache.

Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book
Don't know much about the French I took.

But I do know that burying people upright is just asking for problems Smile

I also don't know much about The Bible Twisted
But how many psalms can there be ?
If they are numbered in a logical fashion then the degrees must surely be somewhere between N and NE and the distance realistically be less than 100 metres.
So off I wandered to look for a cache Big Grin

Oh too easy Smile
But a brilliantly sneaky hide [^]

TFTC
 
21-Jan-13
This is fulfilled71 and I first multi cache it was a nice hide
 
21-Jan-13
After the 1st dnf followed through on Brother Colins clue and found the cache after we broke down the tree hunt in half, good find nhill571. TFTC forward ho
 
20-Jan-13
found the original gravestones and guessed the right psalm thought i used the right offset but obviously not, walked the distance away both sides of the psalm but no luck will try another time TFTC!
 
20-Jan-13
Found the graves easy i guessed what the psalm would be adjusted my co-ordinates but no cache didn't read Brother Colins log until I got home this will be a great help for my search next time
 
24-Dec-12
Out and about on a day in Bundy by myself finding caches. Big Grin
I was able to park really close to this one. Smile
And found the graves fairly quickly as well.
Then I needed google for some help. Surprised
Finding the cache was easy as it was out in the open. Surprised You will need to rehide this one. I placed it under some leaf little near a nearby tree.
Thanks for the cache.
 
30-Nov-12
FINALLY!! I have tried this cache like 5 times before this. Each time before was night time. This time I thought Id try it in the day. I found this by chance actually. I was looking at previous posts and saw that the day"wrong side" clue was of help so I got on the correct side. As I did I read fudddleys comment on "we have a larger version up the road" I know which one he's talking about so I knew what I was searching for. I found the cache because it was on its side revealing the white paint that is suppose to be hidden. There were lots of ants. Log was darn but still write able. TfTC
 
27-Oct-12
I like cemetery caches for some strange reason, so enjoyed this one and I was pretty familiar with the text in question. Pleasingly, I guessed the type of hide and was delighted to see it. All good here today so TFTC!

This was our 13th cache in our caching run today - and we found it at around 15:34.
(So this is our 4894th total find.)

These are not the usual run of the mill headstones. Someone loved them very dearly.

Took: Nothing
Left: Nothing
Thanks forward ho for the hunt today.

Holidays nearly over, a quick trip to Bundaberg to see the in-laws ... and grab a couple caches of course. [9D] Headed out with Muggle-wife and her camera to catch some views as well.

Couldn't find this one, despite a really good look around. I know my Psalms, or at least this one, well enough. But will need to return for a better look another time.
 
11-Aug-12
Found with Liz n Bruce TFTC
 
11-Aug-12
Our second to last day of caching in Bundaberg and we were keen to pick up some of the caches close to town which we had not done. With some of the caches we were joined in our quest with local team The Griffin's 4 which made it even more entertaining. After working out that the said number could be used for both distance and bearing and then after a search the cleverly hidden cache was spotted.
Thanks to forward ho.
 
30-May-12
Log is damaged and needs repair! Finally found this one on the 26/05/12. Tftc
 
26-May-12
Found eventually but was wet so unable to sign
 
29-Apr-12
This is the last day of my weekend in Bundy with Stealth seeker. We decided we needed to add another multi to our list of finds. We found the first waypoint easily enough. What lovely dedications on the other side of the headstones. We searched through the good book and found what we thought was the necessary information. Perhaps we read more into it than we should have. We thought we were clever for working it out but couldn't find the goods. Sad I'd love to know what we did wrong and what we were actually looking for. What a shame - Bye Bye Bundy
 
29-Apr-12
Out with Aussiemates. What beautiful inscriptions on the reverse of the Psalm. Should have read the logs, as I am just now. We were making it too hard. Right bearing, wrong distance. Maybe another time. TFTC
 
03-Mar-12
Thanks to this cache I now know what a distance and offset calculation is Smile Great cache, love the camo!
 
04-Feb-12
Almost gave up! Without reading a previous log note about being on the wrong side I wouldn't have found it! Thanks again!

Found at 12am (midnight) with the Ag's. Very sneaky. TFTC

Found this one on the way home from the 2011 Bundy with GhostGums.

TFTC forward ho Big Grin
 
18-Sep-11
I had attempted this one the day before, got the info, but was a little restricted with muggles tending nearby graves.

I got a hint later at the event, but of course it didn't make sense until after we made the find.

Returned this morning with RoseGums, MrMeccano and Azrosah, and found the cache straight away.

Well done forward ho! Big Grin
 
18-Sep-11
We had collected the words last night and used the bible in the hotel room - knew it would come in hand one day - to find the numbers.

Our first vist to GZ this morning wasn't so successful but a few extra hints at teh event today and an opportunity to return on the way home, meant we got another smilie.

TFTC forward ho
 
18-Sep-11
It was nighttime the few times we had been in the area to do this cache, and entering a cemetery didn't excite any of us due to respect for the fallen. This morning though, Gazn'Kab, Fangsoki and myself were here in daylight. Found the appropriate headstones and the relevant googling done. But what to do with the numbers? We tried every combination of bearing, distance, psalm, number, paragraph that we could think of. We had given up when help in the form of youngoldfella and Kaisho rolled up and straightened us out. We had just been confused by the cache description. It turns out that the bearing and distance are the same number. Forget the paragraph, just need the psalm number. The devious hide was soon spotted and log signed. TFTC.
 
18-Sep-11
Well we got the information and had a few go's at going to find GZ. After a few attempts, we had help roll up around the corner Smile

We soon had the cache in hand, and a great short multi Smile

TFTC forward ho

Gaz'n'Kab
 
18-Sep-11
Finally - Gaz'n'Kab, Captain Terror, and I have done this one. Everytime we looked at doing it - it was night time. I was having none of entering graveyard after hours (it's one of those boring "principle" things).

We collected our clues - but what to do with them? We tried a few things but to no joy. A bit of help rocked up and showed us the way. Ohhhhhh... very well. The cache was found and in good condition. TFTC forward ho - a nice little cemetery Smile
 
17-Sep-11
Found with TassieGirl, Agap and Pigwig.
After finding out the info we needed to do calculations we soon had a GZ.
But we couldn't find it. I balme it on being 9.00pm at night and dark.
So we PAF and he confirmed we had the right spot but had to look a bit harder.
After a few more minutes we eventually shone our torch on the spot and ah ha there it is.
TFTC.
 
17-Sep-11
Found with Bedmaker, Agap2 & Pigwig2 after attending the nearby event.
We worked out a set of co-ords but after a bit of a search we phoned a friend who confirmed we were in the right spot. So we searched for a bit longer and BM finally found what we were looking for.
Another nice hide, well done.
 
17-Sep-11
Arrived at GZ and worked out what was needed, so off we set to find the cache... well, many minutes later, we were still searching and scratching our heads... re read what was required...yup, pretty sure we worked it out correctly... more searching and many more minutes until that "ah hah" moment.

Well, I think we made this one more difficult for ourselves than we should have. Still this was a really enjoyable cache, thanks again forward ho.
 
Excuse me, Mr Lat&long but WHO found this cache? Wink Hmmmmm.....I do believe you did all that maths stuff [xx(] you enjoy but 'twas I who found the cache [^] . Yes, it beat us last time but we triumphed this time.
TFTC forward ho.
 
17-Sep-11
Found with youngoldfella today...

Located starting point - programmed GPS and searched & searched..

John eventually resorted to PAF for a prompt they soon had in the zone - we had only been out by a whisker...

TNLNSL

Thanks forward ho for the cache
 
17-Sep-11
I said on the 24th April that I'd have to wait for the next event. Well, it came, I went and I finally found this cache. Can't believe I didn't see it last time. With all the finds this weekend, it would have been very embarrassing to DNF again.
 
17-Sep-11
Found at 1430. Kaisho53 and I teamed up for the weekend for our mighty little effort. Had calulated the distance and direction but eventually had to paf for some guidance. We were not out by much but just standing on the wrong side of the boundary. TFTC forward ho
 
17-Sep-11
Found at 9pm makes sense TFTC
 
17-Sep-11
Found, but shamelessly on the coat tails of Mr LLJ who seems to have had a private war going on with this cache. Help from a previous finder was also needed so it seems to have been a bit tricky. TFTC
 
08-Sep-11
Gotcha !!! At last... It was Temingi verses or is that versus the cache...TFTC
 
21-Aug-11
Found today while caching with 2/3 of The AG's. Geohusbands were off at the airshow today although they did the calculations for us as we had found the needed information a few days ago. Got some useful pointers from a previous finder which put us on the correct path. We found the bible verse was a rather vital piece of information needed to calculate GZ co-ordinates. Got to the correct area today and GPS took us right to cache. Thanks for the puzzle and the cache.
 
21-Aug-11
Again was helped by a fellow finder and headed off with MRS modelbear to put this one to rest (so to speak). With our new coordinates in place we found the cache no problem. Found approx. 9.30am. Like your style! TFTC
 
20-Aug-11
This is my third visit and finally found this devious cache. This multi I believe should be a Mystery because the cache notes in my mind don't tell you what you need to know.
The degrees are easy to work out but the distance leaves me scratching my head.
Now is it true north or magnetic!!
The other cache "Heavenly Sunshine" is a very good cache and deserves the favorites
it has been awarded.
This hide shows that forward ho has put some thought into the placement but I think more thought needs to be put into the cache notes.
I have photographed the headstones and GZ and have taken a reading of GZ so will try to sort this guy out later.
Like others nothing makes much sense so if someone can work this out I would like to know.
Also like others I owe a lot to other cachers for their help in my being able to gain a smiley for this my last cache find in Bundaberg for this trip.

Found on our 4th attempt and after quite a lot of help from friends. The description is a bit misleading - take no notice of the reference to verses. SL TFTC
 
13-Aug-11
Had another search - thought we'd come up with a plan. We hadn't [:(!]
 
09-Aug-11
Tried hard and failed miserably Sad

Cache blindness has set in.But what a caring family this must be. Thanks for showing me .
I'll have another go next trip.
 
12-May-11
Not being a church type of person, and have no Bible,and one that dosn't usually like cemetery caches this one turned out quite good, Great hide THTC
 
24-Apr-11
So, I'm 5 hours away and after talking to a previous finder, I know we were looking for the right thing in the right place. We just didn't find it. Guess I'll just have to wait for the next Bundaberg event Razz.

Found at 11am. Some other people were paying their respects about 100m away but I was able to extract, sign and replace the cache out of their direct line of sight. TFTC forward ho.
 
17-Apr-11
Found at 9:57 AM finally found it Big Grin Have tried 3 times with 2 different GPSr and kept getting the same result, which put us about 10 m form where we found the little sucker. It was completely covered when we found it, and we were very surprised to see that it was a smaller version of one that we own about a kilometer up the road. Found clues in description to be no help at all, although owner did give us an extra clue which at least had us looking in the right direction
 
17-Apr-11
Fourth try and we finally located this cache Red Face. at 12.10PM By the log we are the fourth cachers to find it! All up it has taken us about four hours to locate this one!!!!!
[?] Yes we must be MAD! SL TFTC

Great hide. Spent a nice early morning before work looking in the wrong place. Went back at lunch time and found it after making sure i understood the clues. Well done "forward ho" this is our first "First to Find"
 
09-Apr-11
Been out here twice but so far no luck.We think we have the new co-ords worked out , but maybe not! Will try again another time before we admit defeat. [xx(]
 
03-Apr-11
Spent some time here today, I think we had the projection correct, just could not find the goods.
