Checked today and sure enough it had moved on (who would want one of these?).
So this cache has had the desired effect and it is time for a replacement cache elsewhere.

Erninz, this might need maintenance. Had another look today but still no luck. The entire verandah was repainted late last year so it might have been moved.
No luck with this one. Area has been recently painted. Maybe disturbed? May be not?
A quick nab on the way past and the final after another cache or two.
152 of 270 for a day stretching from Danseys to Thompson's Track.

I know the little fella personally so I had to complete this one while in town. Some teamwork required here - had to pretend I was interested in the window contents while I waited patiently for Emvy_us to sort out the problem he had with his shoe (yeah right!) and then off to the final to complete the paperwork.
Sadly just a log book to sign and nothing else of interest today. TFTM

I love the way the small SI towns seem to totally shut down at 5pm, caching wise at least, not so sure when I'm looking for a feed! So, an early evening visit it was and totally muggle free except for the smokers outside the pub, but it was an easy retrieval without being observed by them. Off to the final, again very muggle free, and that ended my day's caching.
Many thanks for the hide.
Many thanks for the hide.
It was a bit confusing that the Candy Corner shop was around the corner, but we soon found the waypoint, quickly followed by the final. TFTC
Sat and thought for a while, but gave up. Went to the candy shop across the road instead!
This one has been a must do ever since it came out. EU junior was quick to unearth the treasure and track down the appropriate local retailer. Many thanks from the EU's (especially Conor)
Wasn't quite where I thought this was going to end up, but still a cool cache theme.
Did this with Crusaderwoman - sure am glad that we didn't walk to the final! TFTC
4172. How could Bitsprayer guess the final on this one??? What a great container and love the "inside". The grandchildren would certainly appreciate this one!
Thanks

*FTF* Conors grandparents stopped off for a search in the morning but could not locate the WP so carried on to Fairlie on a caching excursion. Called back on the way home and whilst pinpointed the right zone no luck with the WP. Called in and caught up with the CO as he was leaving work for home and got a very helpful hint and guidance which lead us to a well stocked cache. Conor would have been very impressed with the large array of sweet containers so we will send him a photo in the meantime until he comes back down south. Thanks Mr Erninz for the cache I hope you enjoyed all those sweets that used to be in the containers. TFTC
