Logs
As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.
Cache appears to have been removed. I'll get a new one and enable the listing again once set up.
Tough one at night but I got there on my second attempt. Felt very conspicuous down this alley with a torch in the dark...Thanks for the cache.
nice place to hide... No need to move the bricks..donot give to the temptation of moving bricks
Checked the cache and all was well. The log is getting a work out! Will replace when it gets close to full. Also noted that some people had freshly moved, or removed and replaced bricks - I understand why, given the clue and the tempting nature of the wall (those bricks just look so loose and like a great hiding spot!) so I have updated the encrypted clue to better reflect where the cache is (not behind a brick!). Happy hunting....
What am I missing here! Tried this a few weeks back at night without success. Saw it was only 1km away on my walk from Burswood to Tuart Hill and considering the legendary Everlasting had found it, I took the view that she wouldn't steer me wrong. But, again, found where I think it should be but NO! I will get this cache and when I do, party at my place! TFTH
Loved hide place - no muggles at this time... Signed the log. Thanks nighttimestargazer.
I had a look around then used the hint. Found the bricks but not the cache. Cool artwork. TFTH.
21:44 - #1 DNF for the night with GeoWife. Great little alley with a old feel. Found Sonic, the bricks but no cache. Worth a trip back during the day!
quick find with daz89 and matty16. took us ages to get it back in the spot tho lol
[:(!] Went for a stroll at lunchtime with Akshay.in to get this cache, on arrival at GZ we had the cache in hand in a matter of minutes and were back in the office within the hour. SL TFTC/TFTH
TNLNSL - one of the few laneways in the area I hadn't yet discovered in the course of my wanderings. Thanks!
Parked in adjacent street and walked around to the lane and made the quick find. Returned to the Geovehicle within a total of nine minutes. Yep! $85.00 non resident parking permit fine!! Not happy Trev!!.
Out on a bike ride, and I happened right across this very cool hidden alley. Love the artwork in here! I searched in a couple of places before I was very happy to find the cache.
Thanks for the hunt nighttimestargazer!

The clue was misleading but finally found it. Nice little hide in a cute little alley (bit grimey but great art). TFTC
We were nearby at Dizzy Witch grabbing some lunch and saw the cache nearby. Looked in a few wrong places before we finally got it. Thanks. We liked sonic.
Nicely done - no muggles this morning made for a quick search and find. Thanks for the hunt nighttimestargazer.
As I was driving back North along the freeway, I took the turn off towards the Graham Farmer fully intending the remain on the freeway, innatention however led me to Newcastle St instead, and after a brief period of annoyance with myself I remembered this cache was nearby! Had a bit of trouble finding somewhere to park but eventually was able to make my way into the alley and find the cache after a brief search. Nicely concealed! Don't know about the other 'art' but sonic was nicely done. Thanks!
Well after our last visit to the City, this was much more pleasant. No festivals, no triathlons, no telethon activities. Just nice quiet streets!
We hopped onto the Geo Bikes and bimbled our way around town. Magnificent weather for Easter Sunday.
So after a leisurely lunch in Leederville, we were wending our back to the car.
Managed to make a quick find of this cache, although we were a bit quiet as a neighbour was clearly heard cleaning up in their backyard. Pleased not to be tackling this at night. Think it could be a bit creepy???

I was suprised to see that this alley was not sealed. Didn't take too long to locate this one.

Walked down from the Angove St Festival. Awesome laneway....thanks for the great find. I really want to rehide it in a different more sneaky spot, but did the right thing. Thanks for the cache nighttimestargazer. I hope you find more Northbridge locations to show us! Perth could really do with a few more of this type of hide.
I was most disappointed not to have the pleasure of meeting "ratman and filthylocks".
Perhaps patrolling the parking space is not particularly high on their agenda at 07.30 in the morning ??
Anyway, what i did find was actually quite colourful artwork, which I took in, on route to the Cache.
No problems with the hunt and find.

FTF @ 3:06pm on the way home from the orienteering. Saw this pop up on the email as I was leaving UWA and decided to drop by. Quick find and an empty logbook. SL and headed back to the car. I was accosted there by some local residents who I shall call ratman and filthylocks. They were not happy that I had parked in 'their' parking and were quite abusive. I told them to shove it and shoved off. TFTC

Easy find - just had to wait for muggle neighbours to get back into their property after a bike ride. Unfortunately, I didn't get sucked into the grid. TFTC!
