Not found for over a year, CO not active for a while

Need a visit from the owner to either replace or confirm it's still there. 2nd DNF for us, no finds at all in approximately one year. The two finds in August 2013 didn't actually gets hand on the cache.

Kiddywinks loved this one. TFTC
 
05-Feb-13
The hint was a big help here, found easily as there was no other person in site as I rummaged through the bushes.
 
02-Feb-13
Had looked for the cache here before, spending ages with no success. However this time it was different with the cache being located in about 30 seconds. No idea how it was missed last time.
 
29-Jan-13
Too many muggle kids for my liking, but they were all far too involved with their own activities and I think I made the find without causing any undue suspicion. Dropped off a TB. TFTC.
 
27-Jan-13
Easy 1st find with Slopit12, took blue ball, left Blue keyring, a toy soldier was spotted guarding the box today! Smile TFTC
 
15-Jan-13
Dad found this one in an attempt to keep the streak going.
Lots of muggles around, but thankfully GZ was away from the play area; so he was able to go after the cache unobserved.
 
12-Jan-13
Mac and Molly had a great time hunting for it. Molly chose a lizard holding a heart and has put in a pirate ring and a candy cane to make someone visit more sweet...
 
06-Jan-13
Mr Owl needed a new home...dropped him in ...take him away to a far off land
 
03-Jan-13
Took me a while. The hint helped. Now....who put the cheezels in there :-p
 
03-Jan-13
This cache might be a bit close to a school. Not a good place for someone to be hiding in the bushes :-p

No coin. Will contact owner of coin to remove from this cache
 
27-Dec-12
This cache has more surprises than most. Left rubber ball took CD and 20 odd cockroaches. Hopefully we got rid of most of the cache residents...
 
16-Dec-12
Interesting stash here. No sign of coin sorri. Had a play at playground nearby, as still a big kid at heart Smile.
 
16-Dec-12
The big kid I am, i had a go at the tyrollienne on the way to the cache. I stood right in front of it but Butchie Bum spotted it. TFTC
 
10-Nov-12
No luck this time.

Nice and quick for us, took nothing, left nothing so managed to escape unscathed by the curse. TFTC

Well this one is definitely worthy of a favourite point. What a lot of fun was had by Mr G and Miss G as they slid down the BIG slide. Tried to get photos at the bottom but they shot out like bullets (laughing wet bullets). A great playground, Miss Geckoh would've loved to have stayed longer but we had a few hours driving ahead of us so had to go. Mr G said that as I had requested the detour I had to locate the cache, which I did quickly and with no fuss whatsoever. Good hide and clear hint. Thanks for the fun, swapped some booty! TFTC
 
22-Jul-12
Superb hide Jax - great clue! The boys loved finding it in the rain. TFTC.
 
21-Jul-12
Smile TFTC found it - nice quick cache - only two roaches hanging out in there today (YUK!) - flushed them out . . . . . Seth Raven loved the great playground nearby . . . . NO geocoin present???
 
10-Jul-12
Found in the end, not my kind of hide.
 
09-Jul-12
Great day for school holiday caching.

Took a bit of searching with mike-miss, but cache revealed itself when viewed from a different angle.
 
18-Feb-12
Out and about this afternoon with stretch.kerr. Had a little trouble at first locating the cache but stretch was able to make the find once approaching from a different angle. Glad for the cache to be located where it was just out of muggle view. TFTC! Big GrinBig Grin
 
05-Feb-12
Had a few hours to spare early Sunday morning so decided to do some "local" caches that had been published in the last few months. Got to GZ just before 7am and made a reasonably quick find. No hassles with muggles due to it being so early in the morning. TFTC
 
22-Jan-12
Yikes, not in there??? Took a bit of hunting before the eureka moment. Dropped GC. TFTC.
 
20-Jan-12
Cache was not even covered. Have covered a little now. TFTC

Nice little spot, the skid mark on approach to the cache is mine, don't worry stayed upright.

Nice quick find in the rain. TFTC
 
05-Jan-12
Cords spot-on and a quick find. Which was good as there where people everywhere. Thanks.
 
04-Jan-12
Out with the Future Finder this afternoon for a couple of quick caches. This looked to be in reasonable striking distance of home. Coords and hint were bang on so we were able to make a super quick find. Dropped a TB. A blank log-book?! Surprised Well that was a surprise. FTF 23 (I think...may have lost count).

Had a play on the playground with the FF before the rain got too heavy. Though I should have declined his request to go down the really long slide. I'm sure that it is super fun for kids, but I must be showing my age, because it was just painfull...[B)]

Anyway, Cheers for the cache! Big Grin
 
03-Jan-12
Couldn't see it - but a relatively short look
May need to come back disguised as "park maintenace staff" rather than "man in bushes next to playground"
 
03-Jan-12
ahahaha...nice work..man in the bushes next to a kiddie play place might raise some suspicion Smile cache is a 1L box wrapped in black tape ....just across from the 900 marker...I will check to make sure it is still around...better luck on the next hunt
