Seems that this has gone missing.

Needs attended to or archived

Had another reasonably thorough search today. I'm pretty convince that it isn;t there and would also query if the finds within the string of DNFs are for the right cache...?

I just signed up and found it

No luck today. Nice spot tho

A long search but no luck

had a good look in and around the fluffy grasses, but no cache

Early Morning expedition around Mosgiel

Searched for quite a while, still didnt get it.

DNF.

Suspect it isn't there. Four of us had a really long search.

Thanks

Good quick find. Co ordinates spot on, but I was still warming up since I didn't get the date right. Where did two days go?

Yes the grass stuck to my pants. TFTC

Nice easy find. TFTC

Found on 11-04-13 at 2:51:00 p.m.

pipedream

Quick find. TFTC.

Found right on dark, wet under foot TFTC

Woo found it! 2nd cache how cool

Quick find in a pleasant spot, Thanks

Found with Mrs Darby&Joan on my last night down here for the Mega. Thought we should do some in Mosgiel as our motel was here, but this left us out at night. TFTC

In Hartstonge Street, that was PurdiePurdie's maiden name took a lovely walk through the gardens to find this cache with PurdiePurdie being the appropriate finder.

Popular today. TFTC.

Found in the pouring rain, I seem to recall doing a previous cache in this garden, several years ago.

TFTC. When I saw that this cache was located on Hartstonge St it became a must do for me.
We had a bit of GPS spin and so eventually found the cache with more caching instinct then GPS guidence.

As RuruNZ was doing her international duties talking to and taking a family photo for an Indian family, with the help of Bladesedge, I made the find as she had already found it before we arrived. There is more than one entrance to these gardens and she chose the closest to cache one.

4764. Stayed in Dunedin after the Mega Event for a couple of days geocaching. This was cache find number eight of the first day. A quick and easy find in a surprisingly busy urban area. Didn't need the GPS as we muggled some other geocachers instead! Thanks, Rodney and Iris.

A quick find on a beautiful day. Another one to add our Mega totals.

I visited your cache as part of a week-long self indulgent Geocaching trip from Nelson to Bluff and back again. I apologise for not leaving a completely personalised log, but I do want to thank you for the time, money and effort you put into placing your caches. Without people like you who place caches, there would be nothing for the rest of us to come and find. You are fantastic

This cache was found as part of the New Zealand MEGA 2012 Event trip.

A quick find while waiting for dinner to cook. TFTC

571 Out caching with purdiepurdie and macpacmum after cleaning up from the Mega event.
One of our number desparately wanted to stop on this street because of a family connection. Glad to find a cache in the area that we could retrieve. It took us awhile to track it down, chiefly because i led everyone up the garden path. I was using the geocaching app on my phone for the first time and it was different to what I was used to and I was actually walking away from the cache instead of towards it. That soon got fixed lol... Cache was found and signed and then it was on to take those family photos. TFTC

Found with Helefant. Decided to have a go at some night caching. Bit spooky around here. SL. TFTC.

Found during the MEGA weekend , TFTC

A quick find, and an apt hint. Walking up I thought it was cutty grass and I didn't want to have to put my hand in! Found while heading home after NZMega. TFTC

With kiwicampnut and bladesedge after cleaning up and leaving Mega.
Meet a Indian(?) extended family near GZ (one part locals and the other visiting from Christchurch where they have lived for just 2 months), so I chatted and distracted while the other two made the find.
Thanks

another cache during mega weekend, very popular place for other cachers today.

Bit wet under foot but cache is dry.
TFTC

Found at 1:01 PM GAFF5 in the company of Browngang and Juddda. We found a small green container that contained lesser swaps than what it had in there originally. We brought our own pen because we always do. We didn't have any kids to take with us - oh apart from Juddda's David.
Thanks Cachingkiwi

NZ12. Out caching with Dazzatron today. The hide here was a very effective one as we took ages to hit on this one. Thanks.

Finally finishing logging my MEGA weekend finds. Thank you for bringing me to this spot. Two groups of hunters arrived at the same time from different directions. We pooled our resources and soon had the log book signed.

1550, GAFF5, Found in the company of Pprass and Browngang whilst out and about in Dunedin all packed into a Geominivan today

The nearby muggles making out took no notice as we make the find.

Grabbed this one as part of a weeks caching the South Island with SolDelune, RexTrex Mrs Winglen and Fitzy_1965. Took a little while to locate, thanks for the clue. Nabbed in the rain just as dusk approached.

Thanks Cachingkiwi for the cache.

Our first day around Dunedin was coming to a close, rain falling and time to find somewhere open for take away. So a quick find and we were back into the van. Thanks Cachingkiwi.

Out caching with rosmar and Indiana Jill from the NZ Mega. Took a minute or two to spot eaxactly where this one was - arrived just as another cacher was leaving. TFTC!!!

Out and about on a MEGA cache raid with Indianna Jill and the FMZ team. Found just as it was getting dark on our way to find the best fish and chips in town TFTC.

Found with pprass and Juddda. We are now all jambed into the one geowagon today, all together and this was one of many finds for the day.
Cheers from Browngang

A shared find with my Aussie caching mates Winglen, Zsazsa7, Sol de Lune and Fitzy-1965 as a part of the NZMEGA2012 experience and our subsequent tour.

A wet, dark evening and we were starting to think of getting some tea, so a quick find, sign and away. Thanks Cachingkiwi.

A neat little find after attending the CITO Event and Mega Event site to check in.

Found with fitzy_1965, Winglen, ZsaZsa7 and our NZ caching mate Rextrex on our 8 day trip to NZ for the Mega Event. We visited many areas, found some great caches and had a great time.

Many thanks to all cachers for yet another find in NZ.

5490 + 591 = 6081. Day 2 of my week long visit to the New Zealand South Island for the NZ Mega 2012 event along with Sol de Lune, Zsazsa7, Winglen and RexTrex.

After we left the Mega site we headed towards Mosgiel for more caches. Another quick find in the rain. The area was very wet today which made searching interesting ! Thanks Cachingkiwi !

TNLN – TFTC !!

1704th cache found by WazzaAndWenches.

Waz and the Wenches are in Dunedin for the NZ Mega Event over the weekend.

After meeting up with the rest of The Morris at our accommodation they headed on their way toward Christchurch and I heased back out caching with the Wench.

On arrival at GZ I had to wait till a couple of teenagers near GZ resumed their mouth to mouth suctation and I could search without them paying any attention to me.

Thank you Cachingkiwi.

Out for a day of caching at the Mega. Sun, rain, hail, sun, rain, hail, repeat. A fun day! TFTC!!

Another Mega fine while the weather was being considerate. TFTC

Mega caching trip with Ingidayna, Wethreefourdices and Cachemanchris. TFTC

Nice one thanks. Obviously way to catlins after mega

Was in Dunedin to attended the first ever Mega in New Zealand. Managed to work it out so that I was able to team up with fozzmiester and agcnz and go on an 8 day caching trip around the South Island, this was day 2 of the road trip.

After finding GC2C2N6 - Loose shoe lace?? (Otago), tis was the next cache that we had on our list that we decided to try and find today, making our way around Mosgiel was the best decision that we made as there wasnt much parking around the area.

The walk to GZ was quite pleasant and it really didnt take too long before we made our way to GZ, the area was definitely starting to get a lot more busier as it was now lunchtime and this was brining more and more muggles around.

As we neared GZ we managed to spot the obvious spot where the cache was going to be and as luck would have it there werent any muggles around GZ so when we got to GZ we were able to search the area and we quickly found the cache, signed and replaced the cache back as found.

Thanks for placing the cache here and for bringing us to this spot, really enjoyed walking around these gardens, TFTC TNLNSL (4997)

Wettish where we were. *NOTE ON LATE LOG* I am checking my finds against Banian's, and found this cache wasn't logged by me

Finally getting around to logging... Another MEGA find - cachers and cars with Mega flags everywhere TFTC.

Came here on a walk around the centre of Mosgiel before heading out to the MEGA event. A quick find - signed log, TFTC!

Found it while caching in and around Mosgiel before heading to the Mega Event. TFTC

A quick find while taking a walk a round Mosgiel before heading to the mega. TFTC

Found as part of an 8 day NZ Mega Event trip. Day 2 - Dunedin and surrounds. Thanks to the owners of the 500 + caches which I had the pleasure to find along the way and which contributed to a very fun trip.

Found by The Empire with tackle_head, bogonghazy, sully1 and Snaphappy1.
Day four of the NZ Mega invasion.
After attending the Mega and getting our bucket of goodies, we formed a posse and headed out to grab some caches. Our convoy had a great time, touring around, lots of laughs. My thanks for the cache.

Found during the mega, bumped into some other cachers and we all wandered around to all the nearest ones together for a while. That was nice. Soggy ground gradually drying up.

The NZ Mega starts (officially) today, so I headed out to the ol’ Scout Camp to spend some time socialising & caching...

Tagged along with Sully1, Bogonhazy, tackle_head & The Empire for the day... Had a fantastic day caching, laughing, sightseeing & laughing (Does it get any better than this???)

Grabbed this cache whilst travelling & taking in the fantastic views around the area... What an absolutely beautiful country to explore and photograph...

Thanks For The Cache & for bringing us here
