It's bound to be dodgy going for a disabled cache, bit it's still there and the log is full for sure. What a tiny park. Took the nano back to the only seat to check it out while listening to the neighbours having their dinner over the fences. Thanks.

The bananas are so excited by technology that this was logged for three first time without using a PC. A lovely find. Thanks for the treasure.

found it at 18:49. TFTC. Log is full.

Used a little branch to extract the log. Too bad it's full. Took a photo with this cache in hand (if proof is needed) cause i'm in melbourne for only a few more days... TFTC

TFTC log full, sorry didn't have replacement on us.

Temporarily Disabled until I can replace full log book

Walked right up to the container and spied it in a few seconds. My GPS must have been functioning perfectly, which doesn't happen very often

Last one for the day!

Find #389

Nice and quick little find after taking the geonior Mr 5 to Aus-kick.

Pearler of a day today.

Young man was amazed to find something so small, yet disappointed there was no loot to swap.

Log is full

Thanks for the cache and the fun!

Found the cache quite easily but log is full.
Have taken photo proof if needed.

A clever hide, but it was hard work extracting the log sheet only to find it was completely full.

Thankfully it was quiet tonight and i could feel around without looking too suss. Found the cache and retreated to the car to sign the log, where i dropped it under the passenger seat. Spent more time trying to locate it under the seat than i did out in the field. Ah, the memories. TFTC.

Had to wait for a phone-muggle to leave the seat before I could start looking. Quick find at wrong height, returned to right height. Thanks The Phant0m

Found magnet but no cache...

On foot doing a circuit of caches in Prahran today. It's eleven degrees, windy as heck and showers ten minutes apart. But I'm lovin' it! I suppose it just proves I'm crazy...

I found this one early afternoon around 1pm. It was intact when I left it, so I'm not sure what problem stefanlod encountered. The only problem I had was a full log with nowhere to sign so I took a photo to prove I found it.

Came here after picking up Bonnie from Warwick the dog kinder nearby. Log is full full full. TFTC.

Used the hint to make an instant find, signed in a blankish spot.

Last find of the day thanks to the rain. TFTH

Quick find quaint park tftc

Tiny as

Log book full

18:21
Borrowed the other half's myki to do a few caches between railway stations.

Third in this series in a row, and another nice, easy grab in the dark.

Thanks to The Phant0m for these caches.

#551

With an extra member of our Night-City-Crew, there were 5 of us out patrolling the streets tonight. Smiley hunting a priority for Atraversiamo, PengunChick and BelleAkelea, and curiosity from a visiting fraternal muggle from Sydney along for the ride. We formed an impromptu team name to simplify logbook signing with our acronym of BBUPA.
Found as the ninth of 10 smilies for the night, used some local flora as extraction tool

In the area this evening. Just had enough time to do this one. Luckily it was very quiet. Even though I'm sure there was no one watching I decided to do the shoelace tying cover up manouvre.
Signed the log in the car, replaced the cache and headed home.
TFTC

One out of three Prahran Parks - too many muggles on a sunny Sunday afternoon to retrieve the others.

Once the parked muggle left, this was an easy find, and my first nano. Will have to go back to sign the log, as I didn't have a pen

Thanks for these caches - a great excuse to explore my surrounds!

TFTC... oh my god so freakin cold at 3am on the way home from a party... and I need to wee. lucky it was a reasonably quick find. I love these little magnetic ones

A quick and easy little find. TFTC

My first nano cache!

A random drive at 1am turned into a nightcaching spree. Thanks for this series, there were no muggles around at this time but if we were seen I am sure we would have looked even more dodgy hahaha
Thanks for the random adventure
Found with TheQuantumQuark.

Last of the 4 caches that I had time for this morning. Parking was no problem and the hiding place was straighforward. Just had to wait for a lady to head off to work in her car before I logged it.
Thanks for the fun this morning.
Cheers

Find # 1746

The weather outside was gloomy and rainy, but I wanted to attend todays WWFM IX Smiley Smiley Smiley event and I hoped to attend despite the rain. I had intended to have lunch at "The Pelican" and there were a couple of caches I could find on the way.

After a very brief search, I had the cache in hand, no problems and log signed.

Thanks to The Phant0m for the hide.

Found in the annoying misty rain. TFTC

Found by The Empire with tackle_head
Missed this one because it had gone missing last time I was here. tackle_head wandered off into the park following his new Montana, I knew where it would be from my last search. My thanks to The Phant0m for the cache, an interesting series.

Found in the company of the Walenators on a lazy Sat arvo of caching before heading to an event. TFTC

The Empire was missing this one out of the series so we took the oppurtunity to grab before the flash mob at lunatic park - tftc Phant0m

Found with Hypnotica.

Cute tiny little bit of greenery in the most unexpected of places. Had to laugh at the elderly gentleman who stopped his car, asked if we'd lost something and then asked if that something was a cache before getting back in and driving away Must work on our stealth skills some more apparently.

Signed log although it was hard to find some free space and we somewhat smudged it in the effort to repack using wet fingers in the rain.

Quick find. Thx

a quick little find.
but i could not get the log book out. i worked on it for ages.
so i had to work out how to sign.
i had a blue texta. so my signature is a blue mark around the rim.

cheers. [:x]

This was a very quick find - there weren't many likely places that it would be. Thanks to the Phant0m for the cache.

during my lunch break time
Quickly found it.
Thanks The Phant0m

Found 13:10, after a brief search.

TNLN, CSI=2, thanks to The Phant0m.

Just tieing my shoe, nothing to see here

found with stooy

4.05pm Out and about with Mrs 80 after having some time off nursing a broken leg. We had done the other parks in the area and this is the last. Nothing to play on here for the kids. Found it a little tricky to find how to get in as we found it a one way street.
Nice easy find.
Thanks for the cache The Phant0m

Went for a walk at lunchtime today and made a quick find. Another nice little park highlighted by this series. Thanks for the cache.

Found at 4.05pm. Today was ladies day for Mrs80 and Mrs X who headed out for an afternoon on their own. All of this series was on the list for today - this was the last one. Parked nearby and using the hint made a quick find - usual problem with these ones - takes time to sign log. A very small park indeed but lots of big trees. TFTC and the visit

8 of 8 today. GPS was spot on. TFTC

I had been to an appointment down the road and decided to do a couple of the Prahran Parks caches on the way home. The GPSr took me thereabouts and thanks to the hint I found the tiny nano quickly and easily and then sat on the nearby park bench in the sunshine to sign the log at 1:20pm.

TNLN, although some trackables had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks The Phant0m for the cache and for bringing me to this lovely little hidden park.

Found in the company of lochb on a numbers day.
We had to get this one off the list as we'd been here some time back, and it had washed away.
This time, we found it quickly in a place we'd checked the other week.
Thanks Phant0m for this cache.

Second attempt today in the company of PrincessDiala - and this time the cache was there and easily found! Thanks for replacing, The Phant0m. And TFTC.

Quicker find than most of my nano finds. Second find in Victoria. Over from Adelaide for the weekend. TFTC!

A quick find and quick sign. TFTC

The last of this series for me. The SatNav kept on trying to send me down little footpaths between the houses! Thanks The PhantOm.

Wow that was an amazing cache phant0m!

Looks like I was here before it was replaced. DNF. Not a great spot to put a cache in my opinion anyway. Dogs come through here at ankle height and do their business. Lucky I have anti-bacterial gel in the car.
- M

After a few DNFs I dropped by to check on this cache to find it missing. I looked around the area and was about to give up when i found the cache in a near by drain. I have replaced the cache (in a slightly different spot so that it hopefully wont wash away like a assume it did this time).

no joy - called spladem - still nothing

Had a search where I thought it should be, but no luck for me.
I'm not sure about nerf gun boy as he has now log 2 finds that do not appear to be there

It was cold but we nailed it-nice little container-thanks Phant0m

Arrived in the company of lochb on a wintery Melbourne ANZAC day.
Not much it could be magnetised to. We widened our search but still were unable to locate it.

No luck for PrincessDiala and me... we though we knew what we were looking for and where, but there was nothing!

Quick find this morning at the spot-on co-ords.
Nice little park, and I now see that Prahran is full of them.
Thanks The Phantom for the series

Found together with Chrissinator. TFTC!

We found this little cache on a rainy evening while doing a walk through this nice neighbourhood. TFTC

Met up tonight with my caching mates Blacklegend and Trailrunning for another one of our huge TDC night caching runs. The night turned out to have a few suprises with a few FTFs bagged during our travels. We started in Prahran, then quickly headed out to Williamstown and onto the Melton area then back through the city down the bay to Hampton, Aspendale and then finishing up in Ringwood. Needless to say we did a bit of travelling and we had a great night.

Third of the Prahran Parks caches done and all up to date with those now. A nice quick find with no muggles about tonight. Thanks for the hide.

Tonight was going to be another legendary night caching run for team TDC (Quasar3671, Blacklegend and TrailRunning). Having decided the route to collect new caches in and around Melbourne, the team set about solving a few of the newly published unknown caches so that they could be collected during the night. This was one cache that we needed to collect to ensure the area remained clean and tidy and smiling all over. A quick find here at night with the car parked at GZ. Thanks

Found on another legendary night caching run by TDC "The Demolition Crew" (Blacklegend, Quasar3671 and Trailrunning). About 30 finds for the night for the team on a run which took us from inner bayside, to Williamstown, out to Melton area, and as far as Bostoc Reservior near Ballan for new caches which came out on the night. 5 FTF's for the night in all, which was a fantastic surprise and several mystery caches collected.

Quick driveby find. No muggles when we made the sneaky find. TFTC.

A quick and easy find, although my pen didn't like the log scroll so I had to return to the car to write it out in pencil, then had some locals to wait to shuffle their cars around, put bins and bikes away... Eventually they went inside and I was able to sneak back to hide the cache again and make my escape. Quite a nice night for geocaching, I probably should have gone a little further afield, but it all balances out in the end. TFTC

Quickly & easily found. TFTC

Third find of four tonight while on a mission to clear out the area once again.

This one proved to be a nice quick easy find despite the 3 star difficulty. No muggles about at this time of the night. Thanks for a great series Phant0m, I am sure there will be more to come though

Found at 15:52 on 18.04.2012.
Lovely little park, there should be more of them. A muggle walked past while I was sitting on the seat trying to get the log back into the containerbut no issues.
Thanks for placing this cache.
This is find #1181 for me.
Logged in the field using Neongeo.

Well, first I must thank you The Phant0m as the placement of two new traditional caches precisely on my route to work from home is exactly what I need. With 120 blank days on my GeoCalendar any new caches are good, ones that are easy stops on the way to or from work are worth their weight in gold. So this one might not be much gold but a stop on the way to work this morning was looking like a perfect find until..... a Dad and son appeared right next to GZ, a very slow process of getting everything from the house and into the car, so I wandered off for a walk and dealt with an email or two before returning for a quick find. The advice on log extraction tool was spot on! I ended up heading back to the car to get an appropriate tool. Signed the log and soon was heading to work!
TNLN
Thanks The Phant0m

Found it!! Saw this one come up last night but too late to dash out. Found it this evening after yoga in nearby suburb. Just missed the previous finder by about 10 minutes!! TFTC SL

I was heading south through the city when a cache published in Ringwood area, I turned the Go GGO Mobile TB around and headed north towards the Eastern Freeway when this cache published, another U turn saw me heading South on Punt and I was here in no time.. after sitting out some Muggle workers for 5minutes or soo I was soon making the quick find and signing in the *FTF* position. thanks THe Phantom for the hide and Find #2428
