Hi all,
"92NTY6" has since moved interstate so will not be heading back to revive this one.
Not a flash container, but welcome to be taken by the next that comes across it.
Happy caching,
Sam

Will have to go back and have another look I think not a big fan of getting beaten by cache. Hahaha
Had plenty of time here today, and kids enjoyed the play equipment. Did not help us find it though - maybe another day.
I had no luck here today. My log reads a little like code 1. Arriving at GZ today I noticed the RFS working away in their shed so I was little reserved in my search of the area and it was pouring rain. After a short search I gave up.
Not wanting the cache to beat me I PAF who'd continually told be about the area where the cache would be and I told them it didnt look like that now. Anyway I retured a few hours later where I had another look and once again I came away with no cache.

Searched for a quite a while then finally decided a PAF was going to be required. I explained where I was and what GZ looked like and my PAF informed me the cache hide was no longer there by the sounds of my description. I feel a bit better now, at least that explains why we could not locate

Found today with cav99 and cmac.no4 who practically found it before we started looking. Had a lot of difficulty removing the log from the container. TFTC
I found this with wessiri and cav99. Bring something to retrieve log to sign it when u find.

Not so much a DNF as I didn't even stop and look seeing as there was a heap of RFS people at the shed doing the NYE thing.
Found, but could not sign since could not get log sheet out - it's well jammed in. Nice hide, quite obvious once you see it! TFTC! Rob - VK2GOM
This one blends in really well, but not really once you spot it. Sticks out like dogs #%€^s. TFTC
got to this one early in the morning but no luck. looked all over the place,then a car pulled up and the young bloke got out and said i'm the brigade Capt and are you OK? Yeah Mate just looking for a clues in a game, like the old car rally games. Thanks Acko
Enjoyed this cache. Sneaky hide yet very much out in the open. Great camo tftc.
Found with Teambooo, Booo Booo and Glenwarra.
A nice quick find by teambooo while i was still reading the logs

Orchard Hills certainly wasn't 'red hot' today when I visited. It was still raining lightly and about 14 degrees . . . but it was good to see that the area was well prepared for possible summer bush fires.
On the other hand, my 'hot streak' for the day continued, and I found the little geocache both 'well hidden' and 'in plain sight' -- if you know what I mean.
Everything seemed to be in good order.

Many thanks to 92nty6!

We spotted this one thanks to Rainbow Spirit's clue. Obvious but still very tricky!?!

I spent a lot of time getting hot and bothered here, and it was this that helped me find the cache! As I was quenching my thirst at the nearby tap, I turned and spotted the little devil! Thanks 92nty6, simple, yet clever all the same.
Needed a cache today and this was close and super easy to find.
Cool frog in a tree.

Out this way this morning so could not pass up calling by and trying my hand. Just did the cache, did not play on the park equipment, maybe next time!!

I figured where I thought it should be, but do you think I could spot it? I resorted to ringing a paf and then, there it was.
{{squeal}} My first FTF!!! Mum, bikerbuddy & Josh Hoogs didn't spot this one, but I did and it was easy .
FTF with the Imp, bikerbuddy & Josh Hoogs!
We'd been in Parramatta visiting a newborn baby today, when we found out this one had been published. It was on the way home, so it seemed logical to stop & search for it on the way home.
bikerbuddy & Josh consulted their GPSr's, looked around, consulted GPSr's again, looked some, etc, etc etc. And then when things were starting to look desperate, the Imp called out that she'd found it, and she was soon able to hold her very first FTF cache.
Thanks 92nty6 .

Joint FTF with Toriaz, Josh Hoogs and The Imp
We were in Parramatta when we got notification of this cache. We figured FTF would probably be gone by the time we were passing by on our way home, but we tried anyway. As we drove over the crest in the road we saw a familiar vehicle parked to the side. Josh Hoogs had arrived just before us, but hadn't found the cache. So we all started looking in places where we thought likely but were turning up nothing. I spotted a location but dismissed it and didn't search there. Then the Imp said "I found it!" (It was more of a squeal really), and sure enough, it was right where I hadn't bothered looking. Rather simple really. Thanks

FTF!! with Toriaz, Toriaz's daughter and bikerbuddy. Parked very close to GZ to find familiar faces following me. Toriaz and bikerbuddy approached GZ armed with their Garmin GPS while I had my Nokia. We considered a few spots that we thought could symbolize the cache name until Toriaz's daughter (Sorry, can't remember her name!) found it in an easier spot that we expected. Nice FTF for her. TFTC.
