Should have read the logs before I went looking! Found the corner. There is nothing there or in the areas nearby that I could find [xx(] That makes 9!
S'gawn! There's no sign of it! Do you think someone might wanna archive this one?
Visited this one today after all the others.
Cannot find it.
Found the long necked ones and a couple of eggs near the fence.
The likeliest spot has been cleared by owners I think or else it has severely overgrown.

Found the track and the stretched necks no problems, and were definitely close to gz - but couldn't find it :/. I notice that this hasn't been found since Oct last year. Phelix and Mike - can you confirm that it's still there?
A nice walk with one of the geo-labs anyway..

TGDU Along with Sam (Birthday treat) and minus Reluctant - celebrating wedding in Canberra, didn't find it.
Hmmm, saw the long necked ones, but no gz.
Next time

Didn't know those stretched necks would be out here. Founde cache all wet and soggy, in serious need of some TLC. Couldn't write a log. No swaps. But it was a challenge getting here, seems every track you find is actually someones driveway. Thanks P & M.
Found by Team Raider (Emma & Zac) @ 1415
Took: Glof Ball
Left: Green Clip On Key Ring
Drained out excess water. Didn't fill out log as the pages were to wet to write on.

Found at 2.25 pm by David & Gwen. What a neat track, should have brought my other car 
Unfortunately the cache was three quarters full of water, so no swaps. In need of urgent maintenance, we didn't have time or materials to fix it.

We walked past a black snake on the way along the track, this made us a little nervous about searching in the dry grass, so walked around to get a very good fix before venturing off the track, it was then an easy find.
We took Freddo Frog and left Fish Hook remover and mirror ball
Thanks for nice walk.

Found by ThomasS, WS and KS. Very pleasant short walk through the pine forest. (Once we found an access point). As happens frequently, the name of this geocache made perfect sense once we found it. Who would have expected to find those things here! Thanks Phelix & Mike.
Found at 16:05 by Chris, with the rest of the team behind. We got the right track in first try.
We were a bit worried about hte big black dog which followed us in, but he missed us when we were leaving (we did run).
Left Winnie the Pooh ball, took Green Fridge Frog.

Finially found a track into the scrub area after trying several entry points. Local knowledge is a good thing 
. Lucky we didn't get bogged on one U-turn [xx(].
The box was right there when we found it, so were the long necks. The box was a bit damp
[B)]. Toad of Toadhall like the chocolates [:X].

[B)]. Toad of Toadhall like the chocolates [:X].Found by Tim and Jordan 4pm, cache was easy to find but getting a little bit damp inside. Plastic over the top is not keeping it dry. Left chocolates and took light.
This was my first find and Ironically I's about 11,000 miles from my home in Dublin. I found it without much difficulty and the birds ignored me completely,just as well as I have a habit of teesing animals!
Took small soilder and left lord of the rings card.

Found at 1335 by Mary & David. Found the correct road and a spot to park. A short walk soon had us at the right spot. Impressive birds! Took small Geocooper Mug and left fish. Thanks to Phelix & mike.
Fluked the right road, and found the general location of the cache shortly afterwards. Maccamob were first to the scene - having a compass in your GPS can sometimes be an advantage. The birds were quite shy today, no interest in investigating the humans searching around nearby!
Took a fish magnet, left a flashing light and a parachutist.

Easy find on the way back from the Alien Cache.
James took the racing car and we left a keyring.
Gotta love the birds with long legs.

Found the cache fairly easily after a pleasant stroll from the main road. Dogs behind fences barked as we went past. We took nothing and left nothing as we went unprepared with nothing.

Began cacheing this morning with Liz and Bruce. Helped them locate 3 caches before deciding we enjoyed it so much we wanted to join Geocaching ourselves.
Found the stretched neck cache fairly easily. Took plastic frog left electrical connector.
We normally use a GPS for boating. This is just as much fun!

Found by Liz and Bruce. Took a little while to find the right track but when we did we found the cache quite easily. Lots of butterflys in the area - very pleasant and the Stretched Necks were great to see and curious about what we were doing. Took the bowling stick pins and left a car that we had taken from Rivers End Cache.
Found by Steve & Janice with the help of a couple of New Zealanders.
We got the attention of the guardian and a local on this one, what we thought was a road ended up being unfenced private property...oops.
Took a reading light, left a cassette cleaner kit.

Found it easily after a short stroll late this arfternoon. Big Daddy came over to check me out as I filled in the log, but he quickly decided I was not worth getting upset about. Swapped a pocket light for a fish. Thanks guys.
Took the Canyonero as far as I could with this one. Almost came to grief with a Red car on the way in (was that you Phelix or Mike?).
It was easy to find once I pulled my head out of the sand...
Took the mousetrap (after I deactivated it) and left 2 x Bowling Man Stick Pins and a Plastic Frog.

The pig wins the race.Another Virgin cache for Piggy...
A nice spot if not a bit unusual in the farming area !!
They didn't seem to like the Hot day, walking around with their wings up all the time..
Found it hard to get an exact lock on the co-ords. seemed to be about 10 metres out, read the clues and you will have no trouble though.
I averaged a waypoint on the cache for 10 mins and got the following co-ords, not much different though.
S 35 08.259
E 138 39.822
took the Bunyip finger puppet thingy and left the beer mug from the Inca view cache.
Thanks Guys, Team piggy.
Found by Team GeoCoopers. No oinking problems for us. Our GPS took us straight to within 1m of the cache besides when Grant lost one of our Walkie Talkies. Piggy maybe be rolling in the mud now but just you wait . . .
