The time has come to archive this series. I apologise to the Christchurch Geocaching community for letting it fall into disrepair. If you have found some of the caches and not others, and you want to find the final, email me the codes you have already got and I will reply with the location of the final (if you have emailed previously for help with this series and I haven't replied, please email again). I will archive the final at the end of the year. Regards, Dan.

Have some friends that used to live around the corner from here, until they were red zoned. 5 years of dedicated diy down the tube. Sad to see this once great neighbourhood now like this. TFTC.
Found on a warm, sunny winter's day while taking my grandson for a walk. Tftc.
Last morning in christchurch before catching up with a rep and heading home, so needed to collect before returning the car and meeting at 8am.
Nice quick find in the early morning and not a whole lot of muggles about

thanks for this nice caching series we found the other one yesterday in New Brighton. This one was a nice and easy find.
A nice quick find on the way home from doing the last of the Christmas shopping. That's the last of this series for me. Yay!

Thanks for the cache - first in the series for me. The cache was lying exposed on the ground so I rehid it so not visible to passers-by. This is a nice park and one of my locals.
Quick find in between the rain showers TFTC

My 5 year old daughter found this cache. She was thrilled, her first find. Lovely sunny day, cricket game being played further on in the park. Thanks.
Quick find while working. Tftc
Completely visible to any who walked past. Hid it properly.

Tenth find for the day. Got it bit lost getting here due to the wrecked roads and being on the wrong side of the river. TFTC.
Pleased to see this cache was replaced. I am one step closer to finding all of the caches in this series. TFTC
We arrived late in ChCh after a full day of caching and furpurse hadnt found a cache for Geocaching Get Outdoors Day so we went out and found this as it had was missing last time we were here and had since been replaced. We mustve taken the VERY long way around the earthquake roadclosed detours in the dark but made it here eventually. Forgot to record the number though 
Thanks for the cache 
Thanks for the cache No stumped Ness here to day out on a mega find day with the dog. Wonder how to train a dog to retrieve caches? Anyway a quick score and onto the next one. Tftc

Stayed late at work as I had a bit of a sleep in and came late in to work after being tired as from the long weekend. From work then before leaving checked what quick cache I would find. And I remembered about this series!! Been a while since I found any in it!! And I only have 2 left to find! Well, I decided to make that only 1 left by finding this!
So came round here in the dark and rain, and discovered that my work shoes no longer keep the water out as there are too many holes on the bottom of them... haha.
Luckily the cache was a pretty nice and easy quick find which made life pretty simple
And then home for grocery shopping and then sleep.
And only one cache to go in the series!!
TFTC!!

Overshot actual reserve initially. Once there it was a straightforward find without needing the clue. #249. TFTC.
Got this quick easy find on the way home from cleaning up leaves for our garden TFTC !
Quick find with easy clue. Yet another lovely little reserve in our wonderful city that I would never have known about was it not for geocaching. Thanks.
Needed to get a cache today to keep my day streak going, and this was a nice and easy find. GZ seems to be quite exposed though, so no surpise that the previous cache was taken. Hid as best as I could and tried to make it look as "natural" as possible. Thanks for the cache.
Found this one and had a nice chat to a elderly fello on our walk 3rd in the series today
Another reasonably easy find...once I'd avoided the kids playing cricket nearby. Another one down in the CSGQ. TN:LN. TFTC. #103 for us.Was out this way having a closer look at some of the damage of my old city - very sad to see. TFTC, will complete a few others over time.
I am planning a cache maintenance run this weekend, so I will have a look at this cache, which appears to have been muggled.
Missed out on this one. Had a good look without success. Will have to wait now till we come back.
Thank you. David and Noeline.

234 - What a cool little park and I liked the hide. The roads over this side of town still are a bit of a mess - that was sad to see. Thanks Dan for the hide.
Nobody here to prevent the progression of the quest.
Thank you for placing this cache.

Nice hide, trying to get a few of these caches knocked off today. TFTC, SL.
Quick night find with Geojoshy. My quest for all the CSGQ numbers continues...
Was in the area at 5:30pm on a lovely evening and the area is errie. Quiet. No people. Nature slowly reclaiming the houses vacacted; where are those people now?
One more Quest cache looked for and found. Closing in, only 3 more now. TFTC and the series.
Quick find in a neat place but it was a sad drive through the boarded up overgrown houses and rollercoaster road.
A day when I needed to find a cache to meet a challenge so took the grandchildren to find this one after their swimming lesson at Aqua Gym. Easy find for Cuttie. TFTC
Quick find on the way past. Nice wee walkway in an otherwise bumpy area! Thanks.
Found while performing cache maintenance nearby. Has been a long time between caches...!
quick snatch on the way to get the "AIR" cache off our back. our 2nd CSGQ of your series TFTC!
A nice quick find after brunch today. I was amused by a young blackbird rustling around near GZ unaware of me Cheers Gav [10264]
Cheers Gav [10264]After getting into CHC from SYD at nearly midnight I had a bit of spare time this morning before heading off home to NSN. Nice to find another cache in this series. I'll have to find the other numbers I've got so far and see where I'm up to. TFTC, Biggles.
Another CSGV cache bits the dust! Once again on this side of town due to buying items on TradeMe. Was nice to deal with a family not leaving town. Thanks for the cache, nice park.
