Cache found on ground with harchoo. replaced it where I thought it should be. should be easy find.
This cache had been muggled and has now been replaced with a new cache container at the same co-ordinates. Height to retrieve this cache will be an advantage. As this park has been a nightmare with cache frequently muggled here, please can you use stealth and not look for the cache if any of the neighbours are visible. Houses at this park face the park without any fences, so any residents are able to see activity easily. This is my last shot for a cache at this park......such a shame as it is a really beautiful setting.
On the second last day of 31 days of caching. After today we can say we have made a bit of a dent in the Kingsley caches. Found this one without any trouble. SL TFTC
Spent a little time looking for this. I have come across these sort of finds before and didn't click until the cache owner turned up to check on the cache. TFTC jennacahce and nice to meet you.
I visited this cache today and found SgtAnt looking around....two pairs of eyes are better than one and it was soon in hand....check spoiler hints if you are having trouble finding this one...I have found it dislodged in the past but today it was in its proper position.....its a trickly little critter and easy to overlook!!!
This one had me fooled but figured it had to be on one of these ferrous items around here and sure enough it was. Found this on the way home from work. TFTC jennacache
DNF today too many muggles with dogs to make an attempt TFTC

Second try at this one which is our local park. Found quickly. Unfortunately forgot to take the pen so wasn't able to sign the log. Will do it later. TFTC.
Pounced on this one as the muggle in nearby house had her back turned.
Thanks for the cache jennacache.

I knew I should have logged yesterday's finds last night. Now have to do them before I can get out on the trail to find some more. Found this one on a caching run with urch, one of over 45 caches for the day. Thanks jennacache
Had a caching day with theoutbackwizard101 today, the aim being to get at least 20 finds. We managed our 20 finds with only 1 DNF along the way. Before setting out we agreed to give ourselves 10 minutes at each cache before moving on, but in reality the longest find took us 3 minutes with the majority being found in well under a minute.
#7. Wasn't confident of a find here with nearby caches having newer log entries, but my partner found it pretty much straight away, small log so entered 'GH' only. TFTC

#7. Ghfb almost gave up as I had a good thought and found this cache. log was full, so Ghfb and I wrote "GH/TH" for the log. TFTC

Let Methane have a good look, but I just didn't have the patience!!! Found straight away! TFTC
Went to check on this cache as its was proving elusive....nowhere to be seen at first glance but a quick forage around in the leaf litter meant that I could return it to its proper spot. So its ready to be found again
The neighbours here are very friendly here so keep and eye out, they sneak up on you when your not looking. TFTH jennacache.
[:(!] After church I went for an afternoon of caching, parked the geocar as close as possible to GZ and walked the rest of the way, on arrival at GZ and within minutes I had the cache in hand.

A new cache and a new location at this park....all in place and ready to be found
This cache has been muggled - again! I have temporarily disabled until I can replace it....
Apologies cachees, that you were out and about in this hot humid weather to no avail...I went and checked and it appears the muggles are still at this park...or else "rats cheese" has been eaten by a rat!!!
It is certainly not where it should be. I will temporarily disable this cache until I can replace it. I will have to try and find another spot that is muggle proof......this is the third time a cache of mine has been muggled at this park

Sorry cachees this cache has been muggled....second time in this park....first time from this GZ. I have disabled this cache while I work out another hide spot for it
Visiting the city for Geoson to get his braces off. Yahoo. Quick find close by. TFTC
Found on my Kingsley visit while my wife was honing her cardmaking skills nearby.SL TFTH
After skipping this cache a week ago because of too many park users, I came back this afternoon. There were some kids playing on the play equipment when I arrived, but the cache was at the other end of the park, so I headed in that direction.
There were a few dog walkers around in the park, so I used my time by scanning QR codes, scoping out the cache location. Eventually I just casually leant against the tree, playing on my phone, and made a quick grab when the dog walkers were looking in the other direction.
I took the cache away nearby to sign the log, and then came back to replace it in the same way. Thanks for the hunt jennacache!

Nice quick find once oldies had walked past. Nice little park for geosquids to play in. Tftc.
Cache is now back in place....took a bit of time.....I pretended to be a kid again and had a swing while I waited for the very very slow doguggle to move on
I went caching with Classy Porch Monkey (CPM)...and we checked out the co-ords on the new hide spot for this cache. They look good, but muggles prevented CPM from putting the cache back after signing the log...so I've disabled it for a day or two until the park is muggle free and I can get it back in position.
Found another jennacache creation. I like the new spot but hard to get back with all the muggles!!!
Went to find at new location and found it successfully but wasn't sure if I was aloud to log as a FTF because we found it previously.

I have re-positioned this cache and changed the co-rds to refect its new position. Hopefully it will be less likley to be muggled now!
I am having to temporarily disable this listing as it has been muggled. I will look to replace it soon - in the same park but with different co-ords.
I went to check on this cache and found that it has definitely been muggled. Thanks for letting me know BruceHoose
While playing in the park decided to visit the cache but its not there.
Fear it may have been muggled some time ago.

Luckily we had a Geo-son to retrieve it. Wonder what the muggles across the park think.
Found as geoson has moved into the area. Neally gave up when trying to get hand in to retrieve but managed to withdraw it.
The kids and I set out for a morning run of some caches in the area and this was the first of 5 we attempted. Found easilt - TFTC
Find the cache at 14.58pm. Today is nice day for geocaching - instead of stay at home... gosh how can I reach this one mmm try use my special tools finally retrieved the container phew!!! and signed the log. Thanks jennacache.
Closest cache to the geoniece and geonephew (who found it easily!) Nice cache

The better half and I decided to go out for the day and do some caching north of the river.
Arrived and had no trouble finding where the cache was but had a lot of trouble retrieving it to sign the log but we did so in the end.
Sorry but the cache does not now have a pencil in it as I dropped it down the hole and couldn't see where it went in there.
Thanks jennacache for the cache.

Back with Mrs Hallows to have another go at this one. Didn't look quite so obvious/suspicious as a couple walking through the park compared to when I was here before on my own!
Knew the area to search so it wasn't long before Mrs Hallows spied the goods. TNLN SL Thanks for the cache, jennacache.

Decided to do a quick cleanup of this area while here for the new cache. You ned a kids hands or a willingness to lose some skin for the cause to get to this one. Otherwise a quick find SL TFTC
A quick trip down to Kingsley to grab this one to fill in another gap in our caching calendar. Thanks for the cache jennacache.
Quick find while out with the geo kids, lucky thing too as my daughter was the one with small enough to get the cache out. Felt weird though being so close to someones window. TFTC.
Nice quick find. Had trouble retrieving hand to big hole to small. Got it signed it.TFTC.
Headed over to try and find these few caches that I missed the other day when in the area.
Okay so I really struggled here. I checked the obvious spot then the next obvious spot but came up empty handed. Think it might have slipped, but my friend wasn't having any of that.
Lucky he was there to save me again!

Not at all comfortable hanging around here looking suspicious. I love these parks - until you are doing anything other than playing (as kids) or passing through. I felt far too conspicuous right outside someone's bedroom window. Left without finding the goods.

Fortunately the locals weren't out the back of their houses....this could be a difficult find. Thanks for the cache jennacache.
Received the notifications for #3 & #4 of this series of Caches, just as I arrived at work in the City, so did not give them a second thought until I was driving home some 11 hours later.
Both the hides are only just off the my normal route, so I popped by for my daily Geo Fix.
Found with no problems, and as a bonus they both had clean log books so *FTF* at 08.30 !!!
I really liked the open communal lay out of this park, with all the houses facing in, with low or no fences.
Very unusual.... as the recent trend seems to be to build 6ft high fortress around your home. !!!!
Cheers for bringing me here.
