Nanny & Poppy got my own online account so I can now log this, found with Parkacruz, smileyjims & piknik15 TFTC
I went to your geocache with parkacruz who has already found it and smileyjims, it's still there TFTC
With recent work in the area this cache has now been removed so will rethink the idea and aim to re hide soon.
Out and about on a wet and blastering summers day with Neva2old to add to the smiley count, a clever hide that we had rather quickly in hand TFTC
Busy on a Sunday morning but hung around long enough to make a slightly unsettling find. TFTC!
We were a bit dubious about messing about with this one. But what the heck, we did it anyway. TFTC Cravo10
"Patch" was on a roll this morning and was quick to come across this one even though our GPS wanted to keep changing its location. All in good nick here and a quite cleverly located cache. Well done again cravo10.
Spent a good ten minutes searching but no luck! Lots and lots of muggles making it difficult though!
After lunch at a cafe across the road we strolled over for a bit of window shopping to disguise out real activity.
Thanks cravo10 for the cache.

**Found this while House Sitting in Bedfordale**
*Out and about after the nearby Event*
Grabbed this one after grabbing a coffee first. A short stroll, a short search, found cache, stamped and returned.
Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment cravo10. Appreciate your effort.

Thanks for the hide. We found this one after lunch across the road. Nice tricky hide in a good urban location.
I was puzzled for a couple of minutes, but a more determined search of a particular item turned it up. TFTC cravo10.
Out with CammoLot and a muggle to grab a few finds at Applecross and we decided to find this cool cache!
Cravo10, we found your creative cache around 12:00pm on the 8th of April 2017. When we found your cool cache we admired the camo and replaced as found. Your cache was in a good condition.
That brings us to 133 finds now!
TFTC!
Cheers,

Today was a massive day of caching for Kagers17!! We walked from Perth to Fremantle which took 9.5 hours (after all the stopping to hunt for caches)! We even managed to knock over our 400th find along the way!! Unfortunately being Australia Day a lot of caches remained unattempted as the muggle population was extremely high everywhere! But a great day was had!!
Nice and easy find here, and a chance to stop off and restock our supplies at the nearby shops. TFTC

It was fairly quiet at GZ this afternoon so we could have a fairly good look around and around and around getting no where fast. Used a PAF option and just as the reply came through we had unearthed the find and were signing the log.
TFTC cravo10 this is find # 1932 for us

Back at the 'Cross, this time with megawat60 and Webbly WA. I was a tad worrried of GZ being a bit muggly on a Sunday but quieter on this side of the road. Our phones led us on a merry dance, until I happily made the find. Happy to have a smiley here at last! TFTC cravo10.
Yay at last we have obtained our smily! Out again with m4yb and her DD and this was the meeting spot.
All hunts today curly form a phone so not all that happy and this was no exception, but so glad to hear her call.
Thanks cravo10 for quite a sneaky hide.

Second time lucky. I think the cache was missing last time I searched-thanks for the replacement.
While visiting family in Perth we managed to get away for a short time to find a cache or two. Fortunately Mrs Just a Trifle had found a cache previously which had been hidden in a similar manner so it was a very quick find for us today.
Thank you cravo10 for having placed the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy.

We ride with the bicycle through Appelcross. A nice little village with a nice Riverside.
This container we can find quickly. Thank you for showing.

Being in the area we headed over. A few muggles about but once the GPSr settled we had a better idea of the area and after a little looking we spotted the tell tail signs of the cache. We completed the signing duties and re hid. TFTC.
With the showers clearing up and the sun poking its head out I decided to head out and do some more of the Duck 43 caches along the water front. Like all previous caches done by the man there were more unique and creative idea's. Where dose he get all his ideas from? Like previous day, even though there were some decent numbers, it was also a day of quality. However though, I begin to feel that I am getting a handle on how Mr Duck thinks, so I have more of an Idea of what I am looking for. An enjoyable afternoon was had. Hopefully there is more to come.

Finally I can claim a find here after unsuccessfully looking on previous trips. On previous visits there have been too many people around to conduct a thorough search but this morning on my early morning bike ride I searched in areas where I had searched before and found something I'd not noticed before. I recognised it immediately as I've seen a few like this now. With my bike as cover I grabbed the cache, signed the log, replaced as found and was on my way again with a smile. Thanks cravo10.
Found the cache while out caching with Lazarus and dezzabills. Nice quick find after arriving at ground zero. The cache was found lying out in the open when we arrived, Hid it a little better after we signed the log. Many thanks cravo10 for the cache.

Cache has been replaced in same location just different camo has been used. Happy hunting
Cache location no longer usable due to increased use of location. I will change the concept and location
Can see the container, however it appears to be caught on something, thus unable to retrieve it.
Thank god. Out with familysteiner and our 2nd attempt with a little help from geo friends we found this cache. Very well played. It was doing our heads in. Tftc
I have to admit to PAF for this one. I was in the right spot, but hadn't been quite adventurous enough. The patisserie across the carpark is divine btw! TFTC
Out for a walk with krabiboy and the Geopooch and stopped for a quick find or 3!
Tftc!

Headed down to South Beach with Goorjus69 to take the dog for a day in the sun. After lunch nearby we headed for home via some duck 43 caches.
Headed past here for attempt number 3. And found it within a minute, searching in exactly the same spot as I was searching last time. Good to get another monkey off the back.

Been here before for no joy so actually made a point of discussing this one at an event a few months ago and garnered a helpful hint. Was in the area again this afternoon so decided to see if I could claim the smiley.
I spotted the likely hide location as I pulled into the carpark and managed to park up within inches of GZ. Jumped out and spotted something suss straight away and extracted the cache. Very glad to cross this one off the list... another one bites the dust!!!
cravo10 I found your cache at 4:59pm, this was the 4th of 4 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 2396. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

We were having coffee on a rainy afternoon in applecross and had just done some window shopping. We were about to get back in the car when Mrs noticed a geocache 8m from where we were standing!
The hide kept us busy for a while, but really enjoyed finding it.

I came past here again today to hopefully turn my frown upside down. I checked all of the same spots that I searched last time, and even PAF to see if that would help. I was still unable to make the find here. I will be back. TFTC cravo10
With a tip from the co, we were at last able to find this well hidden cache. Quite embarrassing that we missed it but it it easy when you know what you are looking . Thanks Cravo10, we enjoyed hunting your cache three or was it four times.
Having real trouble trying to find this one. Past logs provide conflicting and confusing info that we think is hindering our search. Either that or we just can't find it. TFTC! Totally baffling!
Checked on cache today as I'm in Perth for the weekend, everything is ok with this one
After having a DNF up the road I thought I would come and have one here as well. Looked around for five minutes for no joy.

GPS was all over the place and we were feeling lost but found it eventually with Loron. Hopefully the first of many on the list for this beautiful afternoon
Wobbly GPS gave us a rough start to locating this cache but we got there in the end! I'd searched right where it was twice before Elrin sat down next to it as told me to have a better look. Really ingenious hiding idea!
Just across from a lovely cafe we enjoy too; so perfect way to end lunch.

Had just had a coffee with the muggle wife and was heading back to work so decided to divert and grab a couple of caches. Time was of the essence so hoping for quick finds. This was just that.
With a few options to search, some not as inconspicuous as others, I went for the one that had "car cover" and came up trumps. Log signed and replaced as found.
I'm Looking forward to meeting other geocachers at WA GOES BIG IN 2015, in Busselton.

Thought I had this one sussed when I first arrived to look, but somehow missed it. Checked out a few other places, then returned to the original spot. A classic double take from me - oh it's not there... no wait a sec... it is! Awesome hide. TFTC cravo10
With 3 pairs of eyes this camo still eluded us, GZ had us at the tree, no where near the pipe! TFT walk around the village anyway.
Ok the GPS was jumping everywhere tonight. That was a very clever hide Carvo10. Geo son found it, that's three to him tonight. TFTC.
TFTC. See that it had been recently checked by the CO. Found after a drinks break across the road. Found with Sgt Ant
Checked to ensure cache is still in place. Everything is fine and still awaiting a find happy hunting
We had problems finding this one for two reasons. The first, we simply couldn't find it. The second, the sweet aroma of an Asian restaurant close by got us leaving and heading for some dinner
Will try again another day.
Will try again another day.
Nice spot! The cache fell off the camo so might fall down the pipe! Maybe the CO could come and fix it.

On a maintenance run, found this one needed attention. Temporary hide in place, close to GZ.
Went to Gucce for dinner this evening with the family. Fabulous food and staff. Definitely recommend it if you are in the area. Found this small geo on the way to the car. TFTC
This would be a great spot for a coffee, maybe in the middle of the week, but just crazy on a public holiday. We were pretty close to GZ on many occasion but with no joy at all. Will return and try the coffee and will watch, hopefully the CO can check as it has been some time since a find.
Gosh that was not easy by any means, but so glad that it was eventually located prior to returning to the UK. About half an hour of our Australian holiday was taken up on looking for this little blighter. TNLNSL and of course T4TC
Headed here on a Saturday afternoon so luckily there were no muggles around. Like a few others, I'd seen something similar at a previous cache so it was a lucky find for us! TFTC! )
Will be back in operation Sunday morning 3rd November. Have taken to fix cache. Cravo10
GSAGC #723. Managed a quick surreptitious find in spite of numerous Sunday morning breakfasting muggles across the road. Admired the camo so awarding one of my rare FAV points TFTH
Was able to sneak up on this one and grab it within minutes of arrival. Have come across this type of hide before, which made it easier. A well concealed cache. Thanks cravo10.
