Hi there
I notice that this cache appears to have some problems (DNF logs/missing/in need of maintenance). May I ask that you read the logs and check the cache to sort out any problems or give an indication of when it may be up and running again for people to find. If this cannot be done the cache should be archived. Once you have resolved any issue please feel free to re-enable the cache. If there is no response to this log after 14 days I will have no option but to archive the cache, in the meantime I am disabling it.
[red]If this cache is to remain "live" then please add a note to the cache-page giving an indication of your intended action. Please can I ask that you do not email me.[/red]
Guidelines: You are responsible for occasional visits to your cache to ensure it is in proper working order, especially when someone reports a problem with the cache (missing, damaged, wet, etc.), or posts a Needs Maintenance log. Temporarily disable your cache to let others know not to search for it until you have addressed the problem. You are permitted a reasonable amount of time – generally up to 4 weeks – in which to check on your cache. If a cache is not being maintained, or has been temporarily disabled for an unreasonable length of time, we may archive the listing.

We don't really want to see this one archived (good hide, important spot), but there have been about five "Needs maintenance" logs running back for six months, and it's 9 months since the CO logged in. Attention desperately needed, not only to the cache itself (only a plastic bag these days) but also to the coords (about 5m off) and the hint (it's an Rlr not a Ubbx!)
At about the eighth attempt Eagle-eyed Vic (the Wight Wanderer) found this. Ingenious hide, but not helped by the coords being several yards off and the hint positively misleading! But glad to have it anyway at last. tftc
Having only managed to download a few caches after exploring St Ives, this was on our way back to the car. No difficulty finding, but echo other comments about surprise finding only a plastic bag. Hope owner will restore.
Just trying to track this one down when jwl940 called out "I found it yesterday. Using the clue made this a relatively easy find. I'm surprised it doesn't get muggled more often. Tftc:)
Last year I looked almost every day for a week and couldn't find it. This year spotted within seconds exactly where I looked before. As others have commented on it's just a plastic bag but I found the contents to be nice and dry.
Found on a blustery but sunny day in st Ives. Container seems to be missing and it's just in a bag but found none the less Tftc
Found on a lovely but blustery day out at St Ives. No log container, only a plastic bag with the log sheets in, as others have said needs maintenance. TFTC!
good clue, went straight to it! Fortunately late on in the day so not many people around. Getting a bit soggy.
It appears that the cache container has been lost or removed and is now simply a plastic bag which does look a lot like litter.
Picked up during a wander around St Ives. Busy spot. Cache is not in good shape. Log signed but wet. Thanks.
A good hint. I needed to be careful not to put down the cache, less a seagull grab it. TFTC bjnsharp.
