One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep from continually showing up in search lists and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still meets the current

guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Hi All,
I'm really sorry, life hasn't gone to plan the last few months.
In the end of June I parted ways with my husband of 15 years. Had to move house, have not hand internet connected for nearly 4 months now.
In late September my step dad passed away from throat cancer.
I'm back online and will look at fixing this really soon.
Just life hasn't let me get to it for awhile.
Sorry for the disappointing DNF's while I've been offline.
Magnetgirl.
 
17-Oct-14
Soon, I will get this back up and running.
 
04-Oct-14
Searched high and low an found nothing. Looking at previous logs. I think it's gone. DNF
 
01-Oct-14
Looked everywhere.
 
28-Sep-14
Tried even though quite a few DNF's - Did a thorough search but no luck... Sad((
 
22-Sep-14
Only if a NM log is already on the cache and has been ignored should a NA log be recorded unless there is exceptional circumstances. I don't see any so this NM log is being recorded.

A valid NA log can be recorded if this and the previous log gets ignored after 28 days.
 
21-Sep-14
Saw this one while at Bunnings and thought ild have a go despite the DNFs previously logged.

No such luck. Even climbed onto the motorway side for a thorough search.

Think this ones archiving.

I think I'm jinxed at this cache. Way back in 2011 I tried to find it but it had been muggles. Now I finally try again and can't find it again! Wonder of it's been muggled again? Hoping I'm just cache blind.
 
13-Aug-14
no luck for us today
 
13-Aug-14
No joy for us today. Two cars parked right at GZ made us jumpy, and we couldn't turn anything up by poking with a stick, so we have to DNF this one. Thanks anyway, MagnetGirl_au. =^.^=
 
03-Aug-14
Had a good hunt around but couldn't find it, maybe it's been muggled??

We are not lost. We know where we are going.

One of the more interesting containers we've found. At least you know it shouldn't leak. Wasn't sure which of the two logs to sign so we used the more detailed replacement log. The geo gremlin was excited about all the swaps, took a stocking magnet left a Nerf disk. Good spot, was happy to find one here.
 
29-Dec-13
Wow!! What a cache!! Surprised Left some new magnets for you MagnetGirl and took a very cool sniper. Had just used my Christmas voucher for The Good Guys to buy a handheld vacuum for the kids to clean up their own various messes (a little sucker for the little suckers [:o)] ) when we saw a cache only a few metres from where we were parked. Yay!! A quick find camouflaged by our car. All is good with this cache thanks MagnetGirl Big Grin
 
26-Dec-13
Yay for hubbies help!

16-Dec-13
Good size cache in great condition. Nice easy find while the other half was busy shopping... Tftc!
 
03-Dec-13
Needed some Velcro dots to attach a poster and parked more conveniently for the cache than the shop - great to see a good sized container!! I love these mornings - gym session, shopping and cache all sorted by 7am!! TFTC!!
 
12-Nov-13
Easy find at nearly 1700... most lost shoppers have left Smile
A lone trolley person eyed us off from across the way, but was too far away to see.
Thanks, Magnet girl!
 
Yay love the cache container this is our 100th cache find and we were rewarded with 3 trackables whoohoo
 
03-Nov-13

02-Nov-13

26-Aug-13
Thanx for the heads up on the lid being cracked. I'll head out there this weekend and replace it with a new container. Magnetgirl_au (mad shopper)
 
25-Aug-13
Bunnings + geocache = happy dad & happy kids. Looks like we were the second people here today. Pretty good cache. Lots to trade

16-Aug-13
Fabulous cache we thought it was going to be magnetic!
 
12-Aug-13
Have wanted to collect this one for ages but haven't had a change to stop.
Area looks like it has been cleared - maybe fence repair coming up or garden update.
I could see the cache before I got out of the car so made for a easy find.
Cache is in excellent condition - very clean.
Covered up with bark but still quite visible.
Thanks for the hide MagnetGirl au.
Favourite point.

Good find.
 
17-Jul-13
Found after a bunnings run Smile nice
 
11-Jul-13
Out on errands with the kids and thought we would stop by and seek out this cache. Proved to be somewhat difficult due to lots of muggles around, especially some big trucks loading and unloading stock to the local shops. Tried not to attract any unwanted attention and nearly gave up entirely but eventually found it in its location in great condition. Lots of booty inside - removed a Kiwi TB, placed a plaited hair tie decoration in its place. TFTC MagnetGirl!!
 
06-Jul-13
There was a tow truck right next to it so I had to wait a bit for a car to be towed away, it wasn't really covered that much when I got there but still blended in. Dropped off a Kiwi TB.
TFTC!
 
26-Jun-13
Found this one after visiting Beacon Lighting just around the corner. Took nothing and left Nothing
 
16-Jun-13
Quick find once we looked in the right spot
 
16-Jun-13
Over this side of town for the lego expo and found this with my family.
 
16-Jun-13
Found with sunshinecacher93.Just missed the TB... Took nothing and left nothing
 
07-Jun-13
Nice quick find. Took 2 TBs and left one. TFTC
 
01-Jun-13
Not really a found it. As its mine. Checking up on it. A little over exposed so I covered it a bit more. Put 2 travel bugs in and took 2 out.
 
23-May-13
Dropped off TB. Thanks for placing this cache. The TB has just travelled here from Perth. Treat him well.
 
05-May-13
Wow so many toys ... geolad had the GPS in the car and I ducked out for a reccy whilst he pointed me in the direction and put his shoes on. I had cache in hand as he got out of the car.
Left suncatcher/love heart travel bug and swapped some goodies - there's heaps Smile

TFTC
 
02-May-13
We didn't find what we needed from Bunnings but did find this cache. Have had a couple of half efforts in the past but too many muggles made it difficult. At this time of day we had it all to ourselves.
A favourite point from us for this great cache with lots of goodies for GeoKids.
Found with KitCat101
All well with cache, thanks MagnetGirl_au Smile
 
02-May-13
Found with C.Ponies.

26-Apr-13
Easy find by Reubs once the GPSr kicked in. TFTC
 
14-Apr-13
Immediately after I found this one (at 640pm sunday night) the cops cruised by i the carpark. There were a couple of revheads running around so I was the least of their worries, at least that's what I was telling myself
TFTC
 
06-Apr-13
Dilemma. Shop first or search first. Shop, search and shop again. GPS had me heading in wrong direction at but once it settled and i took a look round there it was. Wasn't covered so after replacing I've tried to however the camo is still good for the untrained eye. TFTC.
 
30-Mar-13
Left the kids in the car on this one. Apparently two dads looking in the garden is very shady! Thanks for the heads up brucemoose haha
 
19-Mar-13
On my way to work in Caboolture. Needed to pick one up for the day. TFTC
 
04-Feb-13
Was able to pull the car up right next to it and thereby hide my search from the nearby carpark and shoppers. Nice easy find. Exactly what I was hoping for to fill in a missing day on the calendar.

11-Jan-13
Found this one after a bit of a walk through the grass (which ended up not being required!). Great cache with lots of goodies. I took both TBs and will drop them off somewhere nice soon Smile.

The cache was very visible, so I made sure it was covered up again out of the way of prying eyes.

TFTC Magnet Girl!
