Can I still find this? It's been disabled for 2 months now...
I might find it and take a photo of the log if that's ok for proof since theres no updates on it, and the log is obviously impossible to sign
(assuming the cache is still there and I find it)
Thanks

12 noon 22/1 - good hide, but the log is so SO SOOOO full. On a related matter, we can't stand the size of these logs they are so hard to put back together - particularly when it has to be completely unwound to find space to sign. We're in there (somewhere). TFTC
Log desperately needs to be replaced. While we keep a lot of things in our kit, we don't have any paper this size that could be used.
Found with MR whilst on a caching day around suburbs of Civic, Canberra shortly after Christmas.
Found on a damp afternoon after traveling up from Melbourne. Great hide, TFTC
Found between muggles and illegal before 11. Log definitely needs replacing. Signed between 33 and 34.
A walk around Civic collecting a few caches with the missus. Not too many muggles around to-day. Did not actually sign this one no room left. TFTC.
Visiting the capital, I took the opportuntiy to go for a few boxes in the mroning... thanks! The log is full - I squeezed my initials in case #5 besides another log...
Went to the city with LJtheDJ and injuryman
Quite a few DNFs but managed to grab a few smileys
Turned out to be a great day

First find ever for Fryling+Smown. Took us a good 20 minutes but Fryling found the cheeky bugger. We were the 36th finders there's only one spot left on the roll.
Tftc. Quick find in the pouring rain. Thought I'd take Mrs Jaybeem on a quick walk from the hotel for this cache and got caught in a down pour.
Attempt 1 today thwarted when the gendarmes pulled over a driver at GZ. Came back after a walk and sorted the laow down on ehtis one.
Found at 21:11
Last for the night, probably last for the trip
Greetings from Adelaide

Found 7:42 pm. I wanted to continue my daily streak. I headed out to this area to look for this cache. The geodaughter came along but decided to stay in the geovehicle claiming it was too cold. I started my search the GPS pointing me to the nearby tree which didn't seem to fit in. Checked the hint and it also seemed to point elsewhere so I looked else where. I looked in a few spots putting off the most obvious and sure enough I had to go to the obvious to find it. Signed the log and spent ages rolling it back up and returned the cache to its hide.
Thanks for the cache.

# 1669 Was in Braddon for a work function, so swung past here to pick up my daily find. Looked here once before but failed to find it in the failing light.
Today, found it in the second spot I checked

Found with iceydicer after a cold search! Thought it might have been out of reach but all good
Needed to grab one from the area towards the mapping challenge. Parked in nearby carpark and walked over to GZ. Grabbed the container and sign the log between passing cars

A systematic search revealed this one. Fingers almost too cold to re-roll the log! TFTC.
[green]Just past dawn on ANZAC Day and we'd just wandered over from the biggest dawn ceremony we'd ever seen, with breakfast our next plan... it seemed the rest of Canberra had the same idea! Well, a bit of time to kill translates into some time for [blue]Binni[green] and I to grab a few caches [^] A little loitering adjacent to Walter's Sports Playground and a nicely placed cache was soon in hand. [blue]Thanks for the cache genghicat

Well this was interesting! We had a very brief look on the way to multicultural festival a while ago but muggle traffic then made a proper search impossible. Back tonight and muggle traffic was minimal. We even got a parking spot (no way at multicultural festival time!!). Jumped out of the car and after a quick search, Pagan announces there it is at the same time Loki spotted it. Problem was, we each spotted a different cache! Loki's was attached to the object and Pagan's was in the dirt just beneath. Signed one log and put both back where Loki spotted them but CO may want to go and collect the extra! Two for one deal tonight. Thanks genghicat 
Interesting spot, lovely area. Saw what should have been a clue, but couldn't decipher.
Visited tonight and confirmed that cache is good and there are still plenty of spaces on the logbook remaining.
I did not find this on. I searched the power pole and the light pole without any success.

Took a few minutes to locate but it was there .
Nice quiet street as well.
Thanks for the hide.

Had a meeting at the old Olims hotel and stopped to grab this one on the way home. TFTC

Back in Canberra for another weeks work. (And also to find some rental accommodation for next year. I'm being transferred here for work, so will be joining the ranks of the Canberra Cachers from January 2105). I couldn't find this one on one of my previous visits this year, so it was my first stop today. Quickly found. TFTC.

Searched with 'sesblocker' for around 20 minutes to no avail. I think the clue was throwing us!
Finally with some help I can log Found it. The hint completlymessed up my geosenses:-)
10/09/2014 20:20 The neighbours over the road turned up as I was loitering about so was keen to make this fast. I had actually looked close to the hides the first time. I then checked the hint and expanded the search a little and TADA! The second look was the charm. TFTC genghicat TNLN SL
This was another walk and grab on our way home from dinner in the city. Nice and easy and at the first spot we looked. TFTC
This one seemed to have gone walkies, so replaced the cache this evening. Cache is good to go again.
In Canberra again for another week for work. On a long detour to work to find a nearby cache, I came past this one to try my luck despite the recent DNFs. Alas, I too have to log a DNF, but I due to the DNFs I didn't spend long here and was not as thorough as I'd normally be.
Nice quick find.. tweezers did come in handy, looked in a couple of spots before we eventually had the CIH.
Name in log then replaced TFTC

Found it, but could not retrieve the log to write on it - will come back with the right tool later!
Found it. Got the geowife to make out she was vomiting so I could assist with the search. Geokids helped too
Stopped off with pnle after work and made a relatively quick find, although it did take a bit of hunting. Nice hint and clever hide, TFTC.
Found with Swifty... it was one of those ones where the hint didn't make much sense to me... then after the find it was 'of course! Why didn't I realise earlier! ' TFTC
A nice quick find which is just the way I like them! Having spent a couple of nights at the nearby Mecure, it was great to log a couple of traditionals before flying out tonight. Thanks genghicat.
