Dear Cachers,

I hope you all enjoyed seeking out our cache. It has been a great experience from our end.

Unfortunately, it is with happiness and regret that I must now retire this cache.

Good luck,

Sefenlefen

Aaayy scored a quick find. Signed the bottom of the log. Time to start on the back or replace log sheet. TN left a pencil. SL TFTC sefenlefen.
 
26-Aug-13
sefenlefen the front of the log is now full. I found the black tape on the ground as I was taking the trash out & reapplied it using some green tape. Pencil was missing so I placed 1 in there also. TFTC N0Worries

Tiny cache,, well stashed. Found during a footy game, everyone was much more interested in the match than what we were doing! Not sure why this is the only cache around here, might have to plant some ourselves! Bill, Bella, Bram, Daisy

Needing another daily find whilst working nearby. Quick find and sign TFTC just had to wait for or a muggle and his dog to turn the other way before replacing.

Many thanks for the hide.

We do orienteering around here from time to time and so have been kind of saving these caches for the next time we come. We had a dnf not too far away and when I looked at nearby caches this one came up. So we drove over with Bonnie the dog who is always a useful decoy in a night caching situation. Which we needed because there was a guy sitting smoking in his car quite near ours. We made minimal use of torches and I was happy to find the cache pretty quickly, even though it has a slightly different form to that described in the cache notes. Nice work and thanks for the cache.

After arriving at the park and letting the kids play on the equiptment the wind started picking up and it began spitting. I looked towards the GZ and there were a hoard of younger teenagers and thought...noooo not again going to be muggled out of this one for a 4th time. Leaving the boys to play at the playgorund, I thought, no I am going to check it out and the further I got to the GZ they all picked up their bags and began walking away Very Happy I think it was more the wind and spots of rain not scary little ole me that sent them away! After I made sure they were almost off the oval I quickly grabbed it, signed and put it back. Clever little spot! TFTC

Clearing out the remaining caches on the South Morang line. This is a very pleasant park and I enjoyed the ride around it, thanks for bringing me here. There were cricket matches going on both sides of me but no-one noticed me. Thanks for the smiley.
 
02-Feb-13
Technically my first time finding it and logging it. The first time I tried it was with the free app. Luckily a cricket match had just finished for the day.
 
02-Feb-13
This was my first cache for the day, and also the month. A good one to tune my eyes into gear. the coords were good for me which made it easier than it could have been.
Thanks sefenlefen.
 
15-Jan-13
SanguineDragonflye and I set out to tackle a whole bunch of caches in the area today, and this was find #7 out of 15.

A nice spot for a hide. I was regretting not bringing a bat and ball and some cricket buddies along - I need the practise, badly. TFTC, and well hidden!
 
15-Jan-13
Nice hiding spot! TFTC
 
15-Jan-13
Thanks! Nice break from our bike ride.
 
12-Jan-13
Pencil not present. Will come back later and sign.
 
09-Jan-13
TFTC great little spot took the family for a walk around the lake then found the cache tucked away
 
07-Jan-13
Found during a caching run in and around the inner northern suburbs of Melbourne. Was in the area for a bit of work and also staking out a possible up and coming hide.

Nice easy find this one, thanks for the cache.
 
05-Jan-13
A very quiet Saturday at the park, must be still too close to the Xmas holiday period for many teams to be playing. A nice quick find with surprisingly few muggles nearby, the log is in good condition, however the cache appears to have lost some of it's camoflague. TFTC

Easy. Thanks Fonz.

Quick find while waiting for our fish and chips. Thanks for the cache!

It's only the 8th, but do you think I can find a small table-top Christmas tree in Melbourne? After visiting Myers and Ikea and several other shops, I went online and found a specialty Christmas decoration shop in Thornbury that had a tree. After venturing all the way there to buy it, I decided to venture up to Edwardes Lake to grab a clutch of caches. Nice area, and the predicted top of 37C hadn't quite been reached yet. So enjoyed a nice walk around the lake, then ventured up to this cache. The cricketers were hiding in the shade of their pavillion, so eyes were not on me. Easily found, and I hope I returned it securely. T4TC, sefenlefen!
 
06-Dec-12
Cache has been remade and replaced!
 
20-Nov-12
This appears to have been broken, found what looks like a plastic container with black tape on ground, no log book or anything else
 
20-Nov-12
Cache was destroyed by Muggles! Preparing a new cache, and will write a note once it has been replaced. Peace.
 
10-Nov-12
Quiet stroll quick find with baluke and atraveriasmo tftc
 
10-Nov-12
Good clue. TFTC
 
10-Nov-12
Been a long time since seeing a homemade cache like this
 
08-Nov-12
It was time for cricket practise using the nets, so I passed by and came back later. A few muggles still around, so I ambled up to GZ and wandered away to sign the log before returning cache to clever hide. Thanks sefenlefen
 
03-Nov-12
A straight forward find but initially found myself between a game on each oval and unable to approach. When I returned an hour later both games were done and no one disturbed me as I signed the log. An audacious hide and pleasing to see it is lasting well. Thanks and cheers!
 
26-Oct-12
Nice easy find. Thanks sefenlefen.
 
25-Oct-12
Nice one, got to watch a bit of cricket too! Had a chilled arvo.

Out visiting the outlaws and this cache was closest to us.
Lovely day for a stroll.
Thanks to Bexta for providing a log.
I think the locals know about this one so not sure how long it will last.
TFTC sefenlefen.

Second in a series of caches I did today in the area.
I was heading toward cache and saw from a distance a group of younger people at what would have been gz.
Once they left the area to play ball on the oval I preceded to look for it. After loitering in the area for 5 Mins to find it, a few of the kids approached the area and dropped off what could have been the cache. As they quickly ran off, I said, "now that's what I was looking for" the kids just stared at me and ran off. So all in all not sure if the kids were muggles or caches.
 
During a soccer game and a walk to the lake today, in our ninjas excitement today, we 'confused rob me blind'.... I think the kids were trying hard, but need more lessons in discretion. Thanks for your patience 'robmeblind'

This was, cache # 13 of 16 finds for the day, in the company of Crazy! Nat Girl. Have seen a few like this now, a nice little hide. My thanks to sefenlefen for the cache.

Arrived just as match was finishing luckily enough! Knew i'd found the right thing since it was labelled! Tftc
 
15-Aug-12
Definetely no need to keep score today.

The wet grounds were quiet.

I walked right up to GZ and thought I'd spotted the clever hide.

Only thing was it was'nt.

However extending the search found it I did.

19-Jul-12
Like many others before me I searched and searched. Was about to give up when it appeared on the ground no lid and no log. Had a search around but couldn't find either. Put a new bit of paper in it. TFTC
 
11-Jul-12
Given the previous logs I'm not sure if I just couldn't find it or if it was not there. I did keep looking for about 15 mins despite the auskick muggles!!
 
02-Jun-12
Found with auzziesamurai Verry cold after a bit of a search in the dark the cache was in hand. I swear we looked there earlier. Tftc.
 
02-Jun-12
Found with tilla83 bit of a search in the dark but was soon in hand TFTC
 
13-May-12
There was two different footy games happening on both sides of GZ, given that this was a Sunday afternoon. I had a cursory glance before calling on some PAF help, making the search much easier and more discrete. A tough one to do while the area is occupied Smile
 
08-May-12
The grounds were empty today, and there was no one keeping score. Still felt a bit exposed.
Thanks, Robmc.
 
29-Apr-12
Found with nirgalagrin... now I have my own account.



Could swear I looked there yesterday... But hey, whatever works. Last find near the lake. Thanks.

Unfortunately didn't find this one, bit rushed for time. I'll give it another go next time.

Clever hide. Had the park to myself this morning so made the hunt a bit easier. TFTC
 
20-Mar-12
In the Reservoir area this evening on a quick run with ollave and this was the nearest on my unfound list. Ollave had already found this one so I was by myself in the search. Parked outside the oval and wandered to the scoreborard where I started hunting. Ollave was mumbling about "have you found it yet, it's not that hard" when I came out from underneath to find the cache lying on the ground a few metres away from the scoreboard. Opened and signed, looks like it had just simply fallen out. Obviously I had no idea where it was supposed to be hidden so ollave did the returning of the cache. Thanks to sefenlefen for putting the cache here, nice oval with a few things happening this evening, looks like we just missed footy training, but the boxercise was still going on on the soccer pitch!
 
15-Mar-12
Cool hide. Got this while out doing a few in the area. Reminded me of all the saturday and sunday mornings spent playing cricket and footy in my younger years. TFTC
 
14-Mar-12
Had a few problems with Muggles at this one. Got it in the end though. Thank you.
 
13-Mar-12

yet again, i was verically challenged.
i was able to find a tool, to help get it. and push it back.

the container is in great condition.

thanks sefenlefen[:x]

Tonight I teamed up once again with caching buddies Blacklegend and Quasar3671. We had arranged to have a crack at the Keilor side of town and as the boys weren’t starting out until about 8:30 pm I had a few hours between finishing work and meeting up. From work I headed north to collect a couple of new caches, then pushed towards the west collecting a few along the way until I reached the Bundoora area. As I was progressing through the WP’s for Horatio’s View, the boys rolled up and we joined forces to finish this one off and start our push through a few multi’s not yet attempted. At one point, we were making progress on another multi, but were stopped by a challenge from the local police. After a 15 minute conversation about Geocaching, the police moved off allowing us to complete the multi and move off. They were none too concerned with our activity once it was explained to them. The footy practice occuring on both ovals made this relatively hard. I stretched my thighs while looking. Great acting to graba cache.

Found after a few minutes of searching with Biggles Bear #1. Thanks for the cache.

Grabbed with SolDeLune and Winglen while exploring this part of the suburbs. Not to many people around so a swift grab.

Thanks sefenlefen for the cache.
 
26-Feb-12
Out with Sol de Lune and Zsazsa7 for a morning of caching after completing the Woodlands series yesterday. A very nice little hide, thanks sefenlefen.
 
26-Feb-12
Found with Winglen and ZsaZsa7 after completing the Woodlands Reserve caches and before flying home. No-one around so it was a quick find.

Thanks for another cache on our weekend run....
 
25-Feb-12
Easy find on a hot morning @7:26am.

TFTC sefenlefen!
 
23-Feb-12
Easily found. I'd be surprised if this precarious cache is not muggled more often. Perhaps we really are blind to the world around us when going about our daily business. TFTC.
 
19-Feb-12
Third for the day while up here visiting my grandfather.

My dad used to play cricket and footy at this exact oval many years ago so he knew exactly how to get there. The hide was located easily thanks to a nice simple hint.

Thanks sefenlefen Smile

Cricket games on both sides of us but still made for a quick find - tftc sefenlefen
 
09-Feb-12
TFTC, we searched and searched but couldnt find it (only a huge spider). We almost gave up and sat down on the grass and BINGO there it was on the ground in front of us. We put it back where we thought it should go.
 
02-Feb-12
Nice one.
TFTC.
 
31-Jan-12
It took a couple minutes before the 'aha' moment. Cricket training was winding down and there seemed to be very little interest in our activities. TFTC.
 
22-Jan-12
Got lucky, second place I looked! With wifey supa_g and the two pups. Not as crazy over here today compared with the big park over the road! Tnln tftc.
 
22-Jan-12
I dare say that it pays to not go out too late as a bit later in the day this one may have been a big busier. Actually it was very quiet today as the find was made, thanks sefenlefen. The coords were good for me.
 
18-Jan-12
It was a bit hot in the car for the dog today, he would have come in handy here as a decoy. Some people playing cricket were to busy to see us grab the cache and sign the log, wich is full so I turned it over and started on the back, hope that's OK amondo.. Thanks.
