Winston Wander: PMG Churchill, Victoria, Australia
By SKI Pair on 06-Nov-11. Waypoint GC3789J

Checked on this one today and cache was still in place with plenty of room on the log sheet. Enabling.

I can see where its meant to be, and something in there but we couldnt get it out so not sure if we just couldnt get it out or if it's actually not there.

May have gone missing. Disabling till we can check when we get home in October.

Could not find

Tfth

Fairly obvious

Found it im to dymb for the reference

We found the cache easily and quick enough but could not see any relationship with the Post Master General.TFTC

Another good one TFTC

Omegaman1971Support Your Local Villain Live - Laugh - Lurk Caches Found: 13028First To Find: 149Sidetracked Cache Finds: 117I finally attempted the Winston Wander series that I had heard so much about, and it did not disappoint. I loved the variety of different containers and camouflage methods used. Most of the GZs were deserted due to the school holidays, but there were still a few muggles to deal with. Thanks to SKI Pair for a great day of caching fun!"Any day caching is a great day, but even better when the Co is a good friend.I needed TOTT to retrieve this one.

Replaced this one today on our bike ride.

Looks like its gone again. The area has Olson been swept although I think that wouldnt matter.

Found a likely spot but no cache . I think its gone?

Fun find

Replaced this one, so all good to go again

After a coffee with the run regulars, I went for a walk around town, picking up some caches along the way. It was a pleasant day for a wander.After a message to the CO, permission was granted to log this one.Massive thanks go to SKI Pair for placing this one.

This may be missing, we need to check it and replace if necessary

No find this time!

Out with Shumba7 on the geoscooter and geoeuc. TFTC.

Sneaky woody.

TFTC found on a cold spring morning which soon warmed up to a lovely day. Found out on our electric wheels with Algae ️ scooting around the area. Nice place to visit first time here.

The geodogs were abit confused with this diversion on our usual walk from the uni to the lake but we needed to tick a few off to fill some Monday/Tuesday challenges. A quick easy find. Tftc!

Very clever

Very difficult

Not where I was thinking, clever hide.

Silver good find

Awesome

Cheeky

Spending the day caching out with @mtrill3 this one was reasonably quick to find but then had to think about getting it out. Turns out something that 99% of cachers carry to every cache comes in handy. TFTC

On a sneaky midweek getaway we stopped to do this series of caches and we’re not disappointed all very interesting and clever caches this one was no exception, we found it quickly but definitely need a extraction tool to pry it out, but soon had it in hand and the log signed thanks for placing this cache

Clever hide.. thanks

Visiting Churchill for caching day. Nice walk along the track around. Excellent hide. Thanks SKI Pair for placing this cache ??

Had an enjoyable day finding caches around Churchill with the GF and the boy.

Thanks for the fun

Tftc SKI Pair

Checked today, all good to go.

Great hiding spot, super clever

I went caching with my Opa and we 7, whilst I found 4 out of the 7 of them. TFTC

Tftc SkiPair. A gloomy winter's morning evolved into a marvellous sunny afternoon. Geograndkid was itching to get some caches and who am I to deny the enthusiasm.
So off to Churchill where I had previously only been once to nab a few in the short available then.
A successful 5 km stroll for us today, missing only 1.

Located cache in record timing - so much so I thought surely not but yep there it was. Extracting it proved to be a bit of a challenge that took considerably longer and took a bit of ingenuity. But I was determined pulling apart a cache swap to use as leverage as other said TOTT was useless.. log signed and replaced in just in time before muggles were sighted. TFTH

Found it. Great hide!

A good one! TFTC

Another good one. Thanks!

After going for a bike ride today we decided we needed to walk out the muscles so stopped here to check out the university while there are no students are about.
Because I am into native plants I found walking past the gardens very enjoyable as there is some great specimens here.
This cache was spotted after a short time but the extraction took quite some time as it was jammed in. After finally getting it out I saw the problem, hopefully I have rectified it for the next finder
TFTC

Cache replaced. Lets hope it stays this time.

Found what we believe to be the spot by gps but nothing. Think it's been taken

Gone missing again!

Great little hide. TFTC

After a tough run earlier this year with all our caches and lots of maintenance required we went out to check again today. All good.

Found it 27/09/2021 @ 1318.
Thanks for a fun little find.

Good one

Out on a maintenance run today after returning from travel.
Container was missing.
Replaced and ready to go.

Found where I reckon it is but no log book there

Believe we found the hiding spot, but no cache. Have messaged CO to confirm but logging as a DNF for now.

Cache may ve been washed away in the recent floods. Disabling until we return home in October and can perform maintenance.

Hoping recent storms haven't shifted it?

Found

Didn't find, though it's probably in the drain

Found 25/4/21

Awesome cache!

Found with margaretforr1987 nice hide tried in new to geocaching come back to day and found it

Tried to find this one as a newbie and dnf came back today after 70 finds and found fairly easily

With the easing of lockdown we got out on further maintenance run today.
All good here.
Happy hunting!

??

Brilliant hide and so tricky loved this one
Thank you for the cache.
Signed log

I wish more times there were actual help for newbies on this.. have yet to find one as I'm a migrant and just learning the country.. a hint would be nice.. sorry but title isn't a hint to a newbie.

Bro ?

Took a while to find it

Clever hide. Not sure about the hint. Out hunting with Chiko24 and Tooth66

Nice tftc with maggiemae1801 and chiko24

The Sun had come out and living in Baw Baw shire we were not locked down so i decided to head out for a day out of the house and what better way than a drive around your own area picking up caches, Gippsland has some great locations to visit and lots of caches that have not been found in awhile, so with my new caching gear gloves and sanitizer I had a great time touring around the area finding caches and exploring new places. I knew what the hint meant but the CO will have to explain how it fits here.

Thanks SKI Pair for the cache.

Clever hide, didn't get the hint until after I found it, lol TFTC

Great hiding spot

Tight

Noice

Thanks!

A lovely day today, and even though we are socially distancing and staying at home we took the opportunity to take our grandchildren out for a walk and do a maintenance run on some of our caches.
All good.

Found it really awesome hiding spot great job guys!

Not sure how helpful the clue was.. as it had us looking around pointlessly for a while.. but then.. maybe.. and maybe this is why we didn't find a nearby cache a few years ago. A cunning hide, and a lot of fun. Thanks SKI Pair.

Dnf

A lovely day, so out on the bikes for a maintenance run. All good here!

We are enjoying a long awaited caching weekend away. Our research suggest there were some pretty good caches down this way. Today the plan was to hit up Churchill. One word ....sneaky. Tftc

My second day in a row looking for this one. It is my second day geocaching so I now know what a micro is. Great hint too
Thanks

Sneaky hide TFTC

Taking a short streak after work to keep the numbers going. It's s beautiful clear afternoon and the end of a long week. I changed jobs and this new one is challenging and exciting. The one thing that stays the same... caches everywhere, though unlike in Canberra I see some spaces and am planning. There are birds singing everywhere as i write this. Birdwatchers paradise. Cache was found in good condition. Tftc

Finally found it very sneaky hide great path for a walk tftc

Finally found this one tffc

After going to have lunch we decided to tackle this one again, i know this is a dangerous game but geez cutting 3 fingers trying to retrieve this one finally got it out, had to doctor some fingers and clean up the blood. Now the walk back to the car in the cold rain. Tftc

Tricky was looking in the wrong place. Had me guessing till i stood back and looked at the area. Tftc

Lovely little walk. Enjoying this series. Tftc

A little caching experience meant it was a quick find. TFTC

Cool tftc

Took the drive to Churchill today to see if we could lessen the number of unfound caches we had there. After 3 hours, we had put a big dent in the numbers and converted them to smiley faces. Not one DNF today from all we found, which we're happy with.

Thanks to the CO for this placement.

Awesome find thank you

Tftc

Camped at Gormandale after returning from Tasmania. Out for a few caches today. Fifteenth for the day, quick find, cache and contents all good, good coordinates. Took nothing, left nothing. Favourite point here. TFTC

Hi there SKI Pair.

Today we chauffeured SKI Pair around the area as they did a maintenance run on some of their caches. We also managed to find theirs (and a few others) while they looked on with amusement at some of our search techniques.

We are really impressed with the quality of the caches we found today, a lot of thought and effort has gone into their location, size and placement. Congratulations to you both.

All up we found 11 caches & DNF'd 0 in this cache run. Thanks for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places while we meander our way around Australia.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Nothing.

Regards

Ian & Penny.

If I had been alone today, this may have been a DNF for me. "Father Google" helped us with the clue and thankfully my very clever friend kryslazz came up with the goods. Thank you.

Shai marelle and I orgnaised a Geochaching arvo today as it was well over due. We decided to head out to Churchill. One of my muggle friends lives nearby so decided to take her along for the trip. Turns out she actually found more than we did... hahahah also found with SamJell.

Tricky little one this one. Samjell pointed it out rather quickly which i was grateful for because it could have taken a while

Clever! TFTC

Called in today on a maintenance run. All is well and cache is still in place. Happy hunting!

Think someone took it

A quick Google search of PMG revealed the clue despite a dodgy gps
