Hi groovydoo,The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 4 weeks) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 4 weeks to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.Ngaambul - Matt

Thanks for the cache

Hubby and I are taking a trip to Armidale for the night to attend my graduation. I decided that there was no way I could make such a trip and not stop for some caches along the way.

A short stop for lunch and to check out this beautiful cathedral. Approaching GZ it didn't take too long to locate the sneaky little cache, sign the log, and return it to its place. TFTC.

On a rainy day we arrive in Armidale on our Australia trip. After reading some logs we had a hunch where to look.

Thanks for placing and maintaining the cache

Day 2 of 3 of our Caboolture South to Armidale trip.

Now that’s we’ve had some decent sleep from our long, exhausting drive we decided to stay local-ish and head down to Uralla first thing to grab some of those high favourite point caches then made our way back to Armidale and explored the town while grabbing a bunch of caches along the way.

I must say we absolutely love Armidale and it has everything one would need to live here. We may have joked around about moving here and ditching the kids, I guess we can all dream.

A big thanks to the CO’s for placing and maintaining their caches.

Thanks for bringing us here.
