One or more of the following has occurred:

No response from the cache owner.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As a result I am archiving this cache to keep 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 28 days), just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, the reviewer will be happy to unarchive it.

Should you replace the cache after 28 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Hmm. Can't find this one and we're not sure really where to look. We searched on all 3 possible levels but haven't come up with much. Not really sure where to go but we'll try again later! Two fails on two Thommo caches today. Slightly frustrating! Thanks anyway thommo. )
 
25-May-13
We searched high and we searched low. We searched inside and we searched outside. We are crying. Couldn't find it. Sad
 
20-May-13
Looked everywhere high and low it's been moved
 
12-May-13
Frustration.
 
08-May-13
Was hard to find it but in the end found it!
 
26-Apr-13
TFTC - Finally found this one after a couple of quick visits
 
23-Apr-13
Nice quick find while waiting for some hot chips
 
22-Apr-13
Hard to find it! Maybe when you look for it look for it at a 6 foot talk people's head height might help a little!
 
20-Apr-13
Second attempt at this one. Took longer to extract the log and write on it (pen didn't really like plasticy surface) than it did to find! Highly recommend pointy tweezers for this one. TFTC
 
19-Apr-13
First cache for the night,
out caching with Mel and Edgar.
have attempted this one a few times, but phone service has been bad both times....i must stop relying on technology.

very happy to mark this one off my list

Mate a good hide and a good find I nearly gave up there is a lot of posts in that area TFTC thommo77 Smile
 
14-Apr-13
A great find, this is my 1st nano!!
TFTC thommo77 Smile
 
13-Apr-13
Wellllllllllllll now, I shop here!! Big Grin
 
13-Apr-13
I have been known to have put a few of these sweet little joys out in some of my cache hides,this was the easiest nano I have ever found,tftc
 
05-Apr-13
First nano. Nanos are ridiculous. That is all
 
12-Mar-13
Hmm hint was head height... Maybe I need to grow to 7 foot tall !! This one is the closest cache to smirch quarters but we had been waiting for an afternoon we were free of any other commitments to come for a find.
TFTC, we made a relatively quick find but it took us twice as long to retrieve the log to sign.
Now off to the chicken shop for some yummy chips !!
 
12-Feb-13
Found it! Could get the piece of paper out though to record our find. Smile
 
27-Jan-13
Got it this time!!
 
27-Jan-13
Up and down! TFTC Smile
 
19-Jan-13
Had a quick look with shopping, will return another time.
 
28-Dec-12
I needed milk and bread today so decided to also cross this cache off of my close to home list.
I parked within 2 metres horizontally but alas it was a few more metres vertically, so down we went.

Easy find.

TFTC
 
24-Nov-12
Sorry did not find:-( only looked below not above tftc
 
03-Nov-12
After seeing the last few posts i went and had a look and it looks like it is gone, but lucky for everyone i had a spare nano in the car and replaced it.
 
27-Oct-12
No luck for me either - Foxbane checked but he also couldn't find it. Anyone else care to confirm that it's gone? Or moved? Thanks Smile
 
26-Oct-12
This little guy has us stumped looking at photo 2 I believe I was at that same spot but can not find maybe owner could check this little fella.
 
07-Oct-12
TFTC Easy Find !
 
29-Sep-12
A quick find but not so quick extraction of log and even longer to write on that waterproof paper. We often shop here as it has ample undercover parking for all weather comfort and convenience. Thanks for the hide. Ps please use normal paper for log replacement.
 
22-Sep-12
They have the best fish and chop shop here! Love their salads also tftc and hot chips lol
 
09-Sep-12

Mr & Mrs M-SEZ had some time for a few caches today while the kids were in school. We started our search on the wrong level, but once we were at the real GZ, the cache was found quickly. TFTC
 
20-Aug-12
A sneaky hide. Thanks thommo77.
 
18-Aug-12
Found on a trip to local shop.

TFTC took TB's to visit.

Up until now I've always tried to find something nice to say about nano's, but there IS nothing nice to say about the despicable Spawn of Satan. Just as well I found it in the first place I looked. This is Rant#3 to qualify for Freddo's GC3PTYQ The Nano Rant Challenge. Thanks for the cache thommo77!
 
26-Jul-12
found it after a bit of a search, could not open it so we just took a photo.
 
23-Jul-12
This had at different levels, but got there in the end
Thanks
 
21-Jul-12
Quick find.

Found with Team Imp666 [8]

Thanks Smile
 
21-Jul-12
GeoDaughter had this in her hand before I could get the seat belt off. Tried several writing sticks but not one would make an impression.
Took photo of cache as proof of the find for Team IMP666 & Magic 8

5th Cache for the night of caching witht he greenwithscoutroop

after filling the cars with some juice, we walked around to grab this 1.

scouts had not rouble, but in deed was a sneaky cache Smile

cheers
 
A sneaky hide - found it on a night out with the scouts and Fair_Dinkum
 
09-Jun-12
Easy find once we got to the right level. A safety pin for the log helped. TFTC
 
08-Jun-12
Visiting family and had a little time to detour while out walking the baby. Thought I would have ended up on a golf course. Found, signed and quickly moved on.
TFTC thommo77
 
02-Jun-12
Had so much trouble with this one! Not the finding, but the log extraction - we've never had so much trouble getting a nano log out. Had to whip out the pliers. Then we couldn't get pen or pencil to write on it properly... is it made of plastic? There's a faint "W" on there anyway.
 
30-May-12
Found with Arthur, eventually managed to sign the log, all good. Thanks for the cache thommo77
 
30-May-12
Finally came back to make a quick find, a reasonably quick log removal but took forever to sign log as not one of my three pens wanted to work on the water resistant log.
TFTC thommo77
 
19-May-12
Gps had me walking around in circles. Found in the end. Thanks Thommo77.
 
18-May-12
quick and easy for a nano. tftc
 
13-May-12
Duuuhhhh, KittyKat Razz
Walked right up to it.
Don't be phased by the multi-level option.... Is this available all hours? Yup yup yup!!! Smile
 
11-May-12
Ok. So. I've never had a problem with nanos. Variety is the spice of life, right? The world would be a boring place if everything were the same shape and size!!

It was an UNFairview today Sad

Gaaahhhhh. I do have to agree with Freddo on this one!!

After half an hour of searching high and low, intermittent phone signal, and muggles galore.. We decided to call it a DNF Sad

Every few months, I end up at the cafe on the corner (upstairs) so I might attempt this one in the upcoming weeks, after hours.

If the bakery is closed, visit the chicken shop!!!! It's lovely! Wink

We hate Nanos!!

1 minute to find
10 minutes to extract the log
10 minutes to find a writing implement that would work on the log
10 minutes to reroll the log tight enough to fit back in!

Thanks anyway thommo for a cache very close to our local supermarket.
 
06-May-12
A good hide but a better find for the 5yo geokid!!! TFTC
 
05-May-12
This was my planned lunch stop today and I made it Big Grin, but a couple of hours later than expected (isn't that always the way when you're caching) Red Face!
Got lunch and found a pleasant park across the road to sit and eat & read about the cache Smile.
Went straight to GZ for a quick find Cool.
TNLNSL.
Thanks for one more Thommo77.
 
02-May-12
Choice of elevation gave me a 50/50 chance, and of course I got it wrong! Still, some handy steps soon had me at the right location and making an easy find. Had a bit of a look around the supermarket (which was still open at 8.45pm) and was pleased to find they had a not too bad organic veg section! Very handy. Thanks for the cache thommo77
 
01-May-12
We were lucky enough to find a place to park the caravan very close to our favourite frog's place and so Bruce was able to join Mr Clear Skies and the Frog himself for their Tuesday night out amongst the caches. We had a most enjoyable night and this was one of the caches we targetted and found.
Thanks to thommo77 for the cache.

Here it comes.




























Wait for it.



























You know it is coming.




























Not long now.

































Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos.

Love 3D puzzles.

Nice shops I didn't really notice before. Trendy eatery still pump'n out the food at 21 hundred.

Thanks to thommo77 and clear skies from TeamAstro.
 
27-Apr-12
I don’t like DNF so back today at lunch to find it with the new location. Sat loc is still not good but moving up and down the car park I was able to work out were it was meant to be. Back down stairs again to make the find.

Signed "UH" no room for more with out using a fair bit of the log.

I don’t mind nanos but I wounder what Freddo will say?

TFTC thommo77.

So nice to have a nano that is an easy find! Thanks thommo77 for the hide!!
 
25-Apr-12
quiet day today - GPS went bonkers so just did a "where would I put it?" and there it was Smile Safety pin is now a part of our equipment for retrieving logs from nanos (fingernails didn't work this time!) SL TFTC
 
25-Apr-12
Found from on high after eating lunch at the bakery. Good work.
 
24-Apr-12
Up or down? Many places to look but it was where it should have been. Thanks for bringing me here, thommo77
 
22-Apr-12
Wanted to grab this one before the Sunday shopping rush as I wasn't sure if this was up the top or down the bottom.. Ended up being quite a easy find.

TFTC
 
22-Apr-12
Great hide. Usually avoid nano's as they make me want to pull my hair out haha.. thankfully not this one Smile TFTC
 
22-Apr-12
Was muggled out for a while, so went shopping instead. When I came back, it was an easy find, but had trouble getting the log out and in. That's why I hate nanos! But, TFTC.

Used spare body I had and replaced in position, all good to go Smile

As this one was only 1.1K away, had to drop everything and head off with Don't Panic Arthur and gadanga for a look. Arrived at a deserted GZ to find it on the road. Hoping nano would be attached in usual way looked around for any possible sites but had to leave disappointed.
 
20-Apr-12
I was 6 k away. Arrived with no one around at first. Looked for 15 min with out luck.

Coordinates changed from:

Coordinates changed to:
S 34° 48.181 E 138° 43.083

Distance from original: 110 feet or 33.5 meters.

I would like to apologise to my fellow caches. After a few not founds after it was published i went out with my GPS again and had a look and low and behold it wasn't pointing to the right place I fear it was because of the near by structure.

FTF at 1929 CoolBig Grin
Finished making dinner, saw updated co-ords, consumed said dinner (it did involve carrots). Returned to a new GZ and made a quick find. Pity Don't Panic Arthur and gadanga had to be elsewhere and missed the find.
Thanks for the cache thommo77

Thommo77, sorry i broke it. The magnetic disc has come away from the container. I have left it directly under hide location @ ground level.
