Not sure if this is it but from the PF log i guess this was the cache

This cache might needs some maintenance due the condition of the container
 
25-Jan-22
Found the Jimbo’s container (after looking at hint) not before being chased and abused by the owners of the home behind this part of the fence. Pretty scary as out with my baby and they seemed aggressive and paranoid, not a good place for a cache methinks
 
14-Jan-22
Decided to come back to this one. The cache has unfortunately broke/nicked. Out of it's place and empty. I hope you find a replacement.

Slowly heading up to Auckland to see family. Tonight we parked up at the Classic Car museum and after dinner went out for the stroll to look for the nearest 3 caches. Despite being dark managed to find all three without difficulty. The clear hint here made it a quick find. Thanks for the smiley.

Took the walkway between the houses, and thru the grove of trees. Found the hint a little confusing, so looked along the fence and the different fence posts, and there was the cache.

Happy to find and be signing the log, thanks for the hide psychrn, caching with rebel98, little rebel and gorby Big Grin
 
24-Oct-19

12-Aug-19

14-Jul-19
Searched for ages and couldn’t find it. I’ll try again once the leaves have gone.
 
17-Jun-19
Found it after searching for ages. Kids loved playing in the leaves.
 
15-Jun-19
May be hidden in leaves - can’t find!
 
02-Jun-19
With the helpful hint I was able to find this well hidden cache at this time of the year. The amount of tree leaves would be great fun for children (and adults ) to play in - when dry. Tftc
 
01-May-19
Easy find thanks CO

18-Feb-18
I had a really good look but did not find it on this occasion. I will return with a new set of eyes.
 
16-Feb-18
I wrote this log while waiting for a muggle to pass by. This looked so close to the railway park cache but had to detour around the row of houses. Great day for a stroll with geodog while the car gets re-tyred. Tftc
 
19-Jan-18
MRS tryfyn found this while I was scrabbling around in the leaf litter. Nice walk out through the Railway Village. Good to recall a time when firms looked after their workers. TFTC.
 
06-Jan-18
Nice spot, easy find

Not where I first thought it would be. But all made sense when it was found. TFTC
 
03-Jan-18
In Hamilton for a quick trip, thanks for the cache
 
28-Dec-17
Covered up well after the find. Too inebriated fellows were relieving themselves nearby. Great timing, as usual. Log book very wet.[8]
 
25-Dec-17
Found it but not sure it's where it's suppose to be. Merry Christmas. Tftc
 
16-Dec-17
Found while out with my mum, sweetpeas4meplse. This one has escaped me in the past but finally found today, though i think it may need checking to see if it is in the correct place as the cache was not really hidden at all.
Tftc.
 
16-Dec-17
Out caching with casutton but cache was not hidden very well
 
04-Nov-17
Found today with JO_G cache was spread all over the ground so picked it up and put back together and back to suspected spot where it should have been hidden, to the previous loggers please don't give the location of the cache away.

Oh dear no luck with this one
 
28-May-17
A night mission to Hamilton with Philip.Perry and ApacheD. We only decided tonight to come over so didn't really have a plan of attack other than to start at one cache and just keep going for as long as we could. I did have a 7 am curfew which I made just in time then I sleeped half the day away. We learnt it's so much easier to cache at night no traffic no parking issues no muggles we had a fairly successful night and I look forward to our next night attack.signed logs PAD
Tftc
 
28-May-17
An impromptu all night affair with no muggles, no traffic and all the parking we could want! Set off with ApacheD & Davidsonclan around 7pm finding a couple sneaky Tauranga caches before starting the 'Hamilton Assault' It was a productive 10 hours in spite of the weather & DNFs. Signed our logs as PAD to save time and log space.
Sometimes the most obvious place isn't what you home in on so while DC and I were checking the fence line, Apache comes in with a straight forward find in the obvious spot. Cheers psychrn, TFTC.
 
24-Apr-17
Quick easy find here TFTC
