Easily found, on my home after competing in this evenings street orienteering nearby. (Found two containers. Managed to find a spare spot on one of the logs, but now both logs are full.) TFTC.

Steve & Steph, Steph & Steve going on a round trip holiday to Sydney from victoria, decided to drop by an grab this cache along the way before heading back down to Victoria via the coast

)Found it! One log was full, the other was in so tight I couldn't get it out - nice hide. TFTC
The threat of rain today wasn't enough to put me off an afternoon's caching around Curtin. We've had so little lately that I only half believed it would eventuate. But it did & the cool and damp conditions weren't unpleasant. Rain also means no muggles !
There's a bit of a natural circuit of caches around this suburb that I was keen to try. I used to run though here quite a bit in younger (and fitter) days, so I was familiar with the area.
Another nano - hooray.TFTC TNGD.

Cache for today - no GeoSchnauzers. I'm having a lazy day catching up on my logs for the 150 or so caches I found on my trip to Wagga Wagga. I've had to go food shopping, hence the ability to get one cache today. TFTC, easy find, and I'm NOT drunk - there are two containers there. I signed the one with room in the log. TFTC.
Found with Ek47 on the way back from another cache. We found two caches - one with a full log, and the other with room! TFTC!
Found with angelG27 after finding the Reef mystery. Easy park n grab (literally!). Tftc!
Found this one out of three tries today, did the ol loose shoe lace gag and came up with the container, managed to squeeze in a log note and a quick replace then off for a cup of coffee. tftc.
found with 4 annoyingly loud junior cachers. Not sure how many I will manage with this lot! Is one enough!?
Ha ha we were totally tricked!!! So tiny and sneaky. Lucky little 6year old got down and looked. Many thanks 
Back out to Curtin tonight for another Curtin Connection cache. This is the one I eyed off on the map so off I went.
Lots of afternoon traffic on this one which made retrieval and replacement a little difficult but got it in the end.
Unfortunately I've had to hijack another cachers log location as the log sheet is chocker block full and requires replacement.
Thanks for another quick find and that's another Curtin Connection completed.
Cheers The Notoriously Gay Duo

+My first cache after a few frustrating misses. The description makes it a pretty easy find.
348: There are two caches there. The first one I tried you would need tweezers or a good set of nails, both of which I didn't have. The second cache however, you can just use the magnet in the cache to pull it out. TFTC NGD!! 
A quick find and a quick retrieval. Chose the correct log to sign first try, and replaced both caches with no dramas.

A quick find on the first day of 2014. It was a bit confusing as there were 2 nanos. Both logs seem to be full as well. (I didn't roll them out all the way) Thanks
found this one today nice and easy and my second in canberra TFTC from irish gaffer
TFTC from irish gafferQuick grab - TFTC. There were two caches and Gumby Maca and I couldn't decide which log to sign. It turned out that one log was full so that was the most simple solution to our dilemma.
After a couple of dummy-runs today (aka dnf) we really needed this one! All went to plan, except I'm sure I was seeing double... two magnetic nanos - something about being a Duo perhaps? [:o)] tftc NGD
Well that was rather odd. I looked where I thought the cache would be, and spotted what looked like a cocoon. No wait, that's a nano logbook! The top had fallen off the nano onto the ground, and the log scroll had unwound, hanging to the nano base by it's metal pin. I guess that the top wasn't screwed on by the previous finder? Oh well, it's all back together now.
Thanks to The Notoriously Gay Duo!

Grabbed by mrs jmanjezza. Easy find convenient as we needed to send some mail as well.
W00t! I found one!
A nice quick grab, sign and replace as I started off on my second caching bike ride for the day.
Thanks.

#731 - 16:30; Suffering from an absence of caching opportunities due to weather and other commitments, decided to pick this one up as a quick park and grab. When I saw nano, nano (yes there were two of them!), thought Mork from Ork might have sent himself back via Australia Post. Anyway, filled another blank date in the diary, so mission achieved.

The Geotruck had barely come to a stop before GeoSon bounded out and retrieved this one in a few seconds last night. Very quiet in the area. TFTC
The road was pretty busy this morning, but quickly made the find in-between traffic!

Headed down to Canberra with Hoojar today, we grabbed a plethora of caches of which this was one of them. The cold weather of Canberra took us a little by surprise so we made sure we were constantly on the move.
A nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Some of this series proved challenging in more ways than one.
Apologies for the duplicate logs. It shouldn't detract from the fun we had finding these caches.

Found on a Canberra Caching Spree with The Rats. The weather was cold and grey, the weatherman lied when he predicted 17 degrees and sunny. The thermometer only push over 10 degrees for about five minutes!
Really enjoying the variety in this series. The name really gave the location away

Okay, this is the teeny-weeniest cache find for us to date. I think accessing the log was harder than findign the cache. TFTC
Another quick find out and about with the Jr Cachehunters on a cracking afternoon.
TFTC.

Found on our trek around the area. A busy road so steath was a must. Found quite easily. TFTC
Had a great time collecting fourteen of this series on a lovely morning. Just love the magpies!. TFTC
I used the bus shelter to sign log, after wandering up and then back as the muggle with a tribe of kids pulled up, unloaded and then loaded the car up again before he went on his merry way. Thanks TNGD
Thought this one would be a quick and easy grab...wrong!! Timing soooo not right for me! [:(!] . Just about to jump out of car and van pulls up behind me to collect mail. Then muggle neighbour right near GZ pulls into driveway with car full of mini muggles ! Had to wait it out a while but mission accomplished [^] Thanks guys for another one!
! Had to wait it out a while but mission accomplished [^] Thanks guys for another one!I spent most of my time waiting for muggles to walk/drive past. No time at all the find it.
