As we are leaving the area, and this is a high maintenance cache we are archiving it and opening the space for others to use.
We were on holidays in Woodgate (without an internet connection, so we are logging late), and on this day we were off to Bundaberg to see some turtles laying. And find a few caches
I sent Mrs PetAlKids out with EM (kid #2) to find this one... Before long they found it, but had to return to the car for a pen! All good in the end.

we did this one 5.30pm its friday arvo, not to many muggles around. After about 10mins of looking we found it. very clever indeed. It was fun. TFTC i did have to read other gc recent logs to be sure i was in the right direction.
After dinner nearby here tonight, we decided to tackle this cache. The area was quiet until shortly after we started our search. The sound of nearby explosions made us look around to discover a fireworks display was happening not far away on the river. That would distract any muggles so we proceeded with the hunt. We soon found the great hide, signed the log and replaced the cache. We then watched the finale of the fireworks display before heading off. TFTC and the fireworks display.
We picked the right day to search for this cache. Sunday afternoon in Bundaberg and not a muggle in site. Soon had this little sucker in hand. . TFTC Fuddley
We received great pleasure in finding this elusive cache today - it must have come back home!
We will give you a favourite of ours for the originality and the work you put into producing such a imaginative cache.
TFTC and yet another amazing cache.

Hey all just checked to verify that this cache is still there and it certainly is! Happy caching!
Well, We sure had no luck today when looking for this cache - trying to do it stealthfully which certainly is not easy considering where GZ is!!! We wondered if the cache had found another home??
TFTC Team Fuddley which we are sure would be well worth finding due to your many many imaginative caches!

Having parked the caravan safely away at Free Camp cache we headed off for a day of caching. Beautiful weather and a great selection of creative hides which us challenged on several occasions. A really great day capped off when we met up with Port Macquaries cachers Bill and Di Morgan who were also caching around the Bundaberg area.. Knew what we were looking for and with the help of the clue had it in no time.
Thanks to Fuddley.
Thanks to Fuddley.
Found this one with Liz and Bruce. A very clever little hide had to have a good look to find it.
Thanks Fuddley
Thanks Fuddley
Went looking for a French restaurant and came up with a used car yard.a gent assessing a vehicle in front of the sign knew what we were up too but was no help in our search the hint lead us a bit off course, it took quiet a while to finally locate the creature.A tricky hide TFTC Fuddley.
Driving home after doing 'exit stage left' Thought Id attempt this one again as i went to GZ i straight away looked where i didn't look before and guess where cache was? Silly me feel so silly abouty poor attempt I did last time. All in all Thanks for the cache
Checked on this little fellow this morning before our morning meeting, and all is well. He is still just where he should be.
Went there with a friend who has found it before. Was not there so I guess I don't get this one
There were a couple of muggles checking out the cars when we arrived here, so i did the same until they left . Once the coast was clear, i begun the hunt, and it wasn't too long before i found the slippery little bugger . Another cool hide Fuddley ... TFTC
1220hrs. Walked up to this one and started a bit of a look. Before we knew a salesman was there laughing, I know what you are looking for and gave us a big hint as too it's hiding spot. It was closing time for them and after a chat we signed the log and moved off without having to buy a new car. He was quite taken with the number of people that come looking for the cache and where they come from. TFTC.
Dannza was saying this vechile related. I was heading down the french connection. Turns out we where both right. TFTC
Geo hubby went off looking at a ford ranger as we are thinking of buying one and we went off looking for a snail????? Maybe?? Good one. TFTC
with the help from muggle son and girlfriend along with kiarlijo on a rainy afternoon.....TFTC cheers
First I wasn't really sure to be at the right spot. After a while a friendly blue-shirted man came to me and gave me a hint!!! Oh man, I already had looked there, but really: there is the box! Nice hide!
TFTC and greetings from Germany says Poparni!!!

Found with TassieGirl while in town for the weekend.
Sunday when the nearby business is closed was definatly the right time for this one.
With no one around it was an easy find for us....but I much prefer Holdens.

This was a must do and I could see where it might be then suddenly 2 cars pull up right in front of us I decided to be discreet and so sat right next to the cache, grabbed it and we signed the log and quickly replaced it - it wasn't untol I got all the way back to the GC that I realised I had 'bits' still poking through my shorts and all over the car seat....I wondered what was sticking into me on the way home TFTC Mr Fuddley
Arrived at GZ and decided the best approach was to sit... then two cars came and parked right in front of us!!! what??
Anyway, Ms Wig waited and when the time was right she leant back and Bingo!!
Ha.... nice one Fuddley!!

I'm glad I did this on a Sunday. Luckily the area was deserted and I could have a good search. It needed it to locate the blighter. TFTC.
Not at all what I though that we were looking for but in the end we came up with the goods and can admire the humour behind this one SL TFTC
we had 2 look over the week-end and it looks like we were the only ones not to find it.
till next time

This one didn't excite me greatly late at night (although there was nobody around, which we wouldn't have had during daylight) as Gaz'n'Kab, Fangsoki and I arrived here. Cover was provided as I scratched around and soon saw the tricky beggar after I had already discounted it for a rock of sorts. Thankfully no issues with drunk muggles this Saturday evening. TFTC.
The cache did remind me of a joke though. a snail named Sam decided to buy a car. So he bought the fastest car he could afford, a bright red one. He also decided to personalise it, so he painted a large 'S' for Sam on the bonnet. One day he was whizzing around town when he zoomed passed two pedestrians on a street corner. One of the pedestrians said to the other 'Wow, did you see that S car go!'

We provided cover for Captain Terror whilst we played 'spot the cop'

Found it No. 4054 ... nice hide ... quite in the street at this time ... TNLN ... TFTC ( u 2 )
I love the name for this one - very apt I first thought it might be a reference to those horrid Nissan cars that came out in the 1990s.
Gaz and I tried to give Captain Terror as much cover as possible while he searched for this one. We prayed no police would potter on past. Thankfully they did not and the cache was found after a while. It was in good condition. TFTC Team Fuddley

Back in Bundaberg and a little caching was the order of the day. This was the 18th find of the day and the fifth of yours.
I have come to expect a good cache when I see who placed it and I know that a lot of effort has gone into the placement. Like yourself I have some easy ones and others that make them work for it.
I found the cache and the new container with the new log which was signed and carefully replaced.
This is another example which shows what you can achieve if you give it a little thought.

Just signed in the last space on the log. Also, the container itself needs attention.
Gotcha !!! Thank goodness it was Sunday Arvo. I wouldn't like to attempt it thru the Week. TFTC
that was our first cache in bundaberg and we needed a bit to find it. nice hide.
TFTC!
TFTC!
Sunday morning and almost a clear run. Another interesting camo job.
Thanks Fuddley
Thanks Fuddley
Sunday arvo and not many people around! Perfect. Started my search where I left off last time looking for the right type of creature this time (don't ask!!)
Found the well-camouflaged tricky blighter and signed the log. TFTC Fuddley.

Took us a while before Mr Bushies2 finally found it, sneaky hide but great Thanks Fuddley.
Last find of the day with Geokid. We missed it on the first sweep, but upon re-reading the clue/description found it. One of the best camo's yet. Thanx guys, was great fun, Cheers.....
Ha! Very amusing! Good thing it was dark, it did make our search easier. Cheers Gav [8373]
Found at 1910. Story time. There once was this little container that had some juicy stuff inside. Arruved at GZ and groped around a found what I thought was what I was looking for. Nope. Nothing there. Went away re read the description and additional notes and went back. Picked up afore said object and noticed some writing on the bottom that definitely gave it away as a cache container. Then the detetive work started. Played in the mulch in the area where the aforesaid objecy was found and then I found the juicy bit that should have been ES-KA-GO. I gave replaced the juicy bit back in the object and pushed it in harder, Does still come out with a tug but does not fall out when picked up. TFTC Team Fuddley
No muggles to day so had a good chance to look for the little fellow, hey prestow there he was looking very cold, Didn't know if we could attempt to sign the log as we have trouble with small logs due to our hands, but geo wife just had to have a go, It took longer to replace the log than to find ES-KA-GO
Thanks
Thanks
Found 9:30 8/05/11 - found our first cache on Lyn's birthday very clever, appreciated the word play TFTC
We don't often label a cache as CUTE! but this one was just that. Great use of ingenuity, the hint was a mind boggler of a name. TFTC SL
Heard about this one not long after arriving in town and immediately decided to give up on it. However, we found ourselves nearby and of course, had to have a look. Turned out to be an easy find . No one was more surprised then me, I can tell you. I always have trouble with these things, but Good Friday was about as muggleless as you can get and the cache was in hand as soon as the GPSr settled on a spot. It also has issues with these types of hides .
Oh Mr Fuddley...sneaky sneaky....I am just glad Mr L&L was with me to do the creeping about bit!!! Very good play on words. TFTC
Must be suffering cache blindness today - no es-ka-go for me Will return another time.
Oh dear what a bummer, just like ozibags this was a no show today, but never mind may be next time
Found it! great hiding spot...Went at night.....we were almost ready to give up then there it was!
Checking our emails this morning we were delighted to find a new cache by Fuddley. As we were already going to town we decided to try our luck for FTF.
Yay!!. our 3rd FTF. Took a litlle while to locate as we were a bit diverted but then spotted the little rascal .Not too many muggles around and the business people were busy with their own business so we signed log ( but had to go into a nearby shop to ask the date!!!) and put him back to continue watching the traffic.TFTC
