Due to the long line of DNF's I think this cache needs checking and possibly a replacement.
Will have to come back another day. I dont think we had enough time to search for it
Had a look for about 10 mins, couldn't find it. Heaps of muggles around this arvo tho and too many hiding spots on this structure to find it in a hurry... will try again some day.
Had a look around here for about ten minutes in the fading light for no joy. Lots of possibilities.

There were many muggles out and about this afternoon which made searching difficult. After some 20mins of being interrupted by grandparent and their grandchildren, mothers and their children as well as families and their dogs it was time to move on. We shall return to turn this DNF frown upside down.
Couldn't find but not too sure if it's gone. Lots of smoking paraphernalia around. DNF.
Went up and down and round and round but couldn't find it. Very nice spot though - wouldn't mind living in one of those houses! - and the kids liked the playground.
Had to check everything. Smallest cache I've seen. Difficult to fit the log back in but managed
Spent the morning with MNS13 taking our little 2yr olds out for some caching... We had a nice walk along the lake here to GZ & Master 2 was very happy about the little ducks that followed us along [^] My initial thought's approaching this cache were of absolute horror, but thankfully today I was quick to spot this sneaky little hide
TFTC and for showing us this spot Keego and Chil, there certainly is some beautiful homes around here Cache is in good condition & dry.

How nice would it be to live around here??
Out with Jasenjanine today in the hopes of finding a few caches, we pulled up at GZ and marveled at the view. The kids enjoyed the ducks swimming along side us as we made our way over. Nice quick find here by Janine.
Thanks keego and chil for the cache!

WOW!! What a gorgeous place!! Would love to live in one of those house! (lotto win required!!)
Had a lovely wander around the park and then went up to check the view - beautiful. I could sit and listen to that water lapping on the edges all day!! Though it is a bit wet and looks as if there has been a bit of a flood with the rains, but still a beautiful place.
I then started looking, looking and looking some more. I had a phsyio appointment and was just about to leave when I decided to check one more spot and there it was!!! All signed in the new log and seemed to be able to close cache properly.
TFTC Keego & Chil and for taking me to that lovely spot Number 16/31 for the 31 Days of Geocaching Challenge.

Took a while, we did crawl around, looked up, climbed up and down. Finally found it in a spot that all three of us had looked before! Cache doesn't close properly anymore. SL TFTC
We found a Munzee then the cache. No need to crawl around if you have good eyesight.
The houses nearby look like they should be on a canal as they have the dock but no boat. Interesting concept of lakeside living.
We had trouble ling the thread parts of the cache up (they are semi cross threaded)but it wont get wet and wont fall apart so it should be OK.
Thanks.

No luck with this one while on a night caching run. Sadly some muggles came and hung around so we left to find another nearby cache. When we came back we found they'd smashed their empty bottles in the vicinity. Spelluncle cleared up the broken glass while I had another search but still no joy. We'll be back.
Looked twice now and haven't been able to find this one. Maybe I'm not good at this, but does anyone have any more clues?
Decided to come tackle this 1 with helbren we were all searching for a while then I happened to look in the right spot, tftc
Third time lucky with this one. Another smiley face on my map. Thanks Keego and Chil
Us boys spent close to an hour looking before wifey came over and found it straight away! Signed the log, thanks
Came back to this one, with a fellow cacher who had already found it, plus inside info from the CO. Not there where it should have been. Bugger!! Has the cache type changed, or has it been moved from where it was originally I wonder?? Oh well, another time perhaps.
Waited for muggle family to depart before making quick find...although not in the place I expected....very grand structure...cheers Keego_and_Chil
decided to check on the cache here, sadly the cache has been lost, so we have replaced the cache.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings, but I think this one has gone awol. I searched in all the spots I could think of, then searched over again, then again. In frustration, I phoned a previous finder for help. She told me where she had found it, but it is no longer there, that I can see anyway. Thanks Keego and Chil

TFTC . Beautiful location...once we saw where GZ was the decision to take the mirror on a stick was soon rewarded.
A quick find, its the first time ive driven through this area and the parks are really nice
Spent ages looking at everything that is in plain view. Found it eventually, but not quite in plain view for me; maybe only with a mirror. TFTC!

After a DNF at the nearby Bunnings (=did not find what I was looking for) I needed a pick-me-up. Had the coords already in my GPS and found the little blighter the first place I put my hand. No muggles about to spoil the fun.

When I got to this one somebody decided to do there exercise going up and down the steps, and no it wasn’t a geocacher looking for a cache so with another cache close by did that one came back this person still doing exercise just about to drive of when this person got going. Great got to GZ found SL put back just in time as more Muggles came. TFTH.
Our 5000th find! Probably the quickest find of the day - found in first spot we looked. To be fair to Mickeydv, it looks like it is a replacement as the log was empty. Beautiful houses in the area and our first visit to this new sub-division.
After seeing the DNF from MickeyDV, I decided to check the cache out, with no sign of the cache I replaced the beasty....
Beautiful area - love it with breeze so lovely. Mr FelixII find it. Thanks and Merry Christmas...
Mrs Felix sat down last night to make out a caching list for today. Aiming to reach 40 caches today. We joined forces with Everlasting for an all day assault southside!
Hmmm were your ears burning? Mutter, mutter. Another bloody nano! sure enough found in a spot already searched! Number 16 so far.

Out with Amstrad Kid today. The geo kids loved this one. Tricky find, well done.
This was hard to find as I had the grand kids in tow with a dog on a lead a shifty gardener that pretended to be working and did not really seem to be doing anything and a neighbour out the front also watching the proceedings. It was like a scene out of a movie with the kids going up and down the stairs with Baylin my grandson playing peeky boo through the steps at me. I let Guarde Le Roy have an extensive search first then got down to business juggling looking after the kids and searching. So many places it was a great structure to place a cache on. Like C I found the same way. Thanks for the entertainment Keego your acting part was superb and thanks for the cache.
Besides the view from atop and the lovely surrounding the thing I like most were the limited spots to hide a b#@%$y nano.
Thanks Keego and Chil.

Was just finishing a late breakfast when the Better Half told me this had been published so off I went on a longish trip to pick up all the new caches.
Had a bit of trouble finding the cache as I missed feeling for it and didn't see it the first time round.
Thanks for the cache.
