I've decided to archive this to free up the area but may replace if there is still a gap in the future
Grabbed it on the way back from a colleagues leaving dinner. Fairly busy spot even late in the evening so subtlty was needed looking around but soon spotted cache and signed the log. Now to hunt down the rest in lunch hours and journeys to and from work! Tftc

Quick drive by picking up some caches after Twelve event earlier with cyclenutt and fretdancer. Quick find for Andy. Tftc
Earlier visit as "Team Phooners" (consisting "Spire67" & myself plus one each from "The 3 Wise Monkeys" & "The Muldoons" plus "Mr Wizz" & "Walk on the Wildside"), we arrived to find two muggles sitting on the hint item! Went away to attend the nearby "Twelve" Event and returned later with a reduced team consisting myself, "Spire67" and one each from "The 3 Wise Monkeys" & "The Muldoons", thankfully to find the location deserted. Cache soon found and logbook signed. Thanks for placing.
Tried to get this one prior to the Twelve event with Team Phooners (myself, PlasmaWave, Spire67, a Wise Monkey, Walk on the Wildside and Mr Wizz) but the hint item was occupied by muggles. After the event I returned with one of the Wise Monkeys and this time we were able to retrieve the cache. Just about to replace when Spire67 and PlasmaWave joined us. TFTC

Out with Team Phooners, trying to get a few caches before the event. We dashed over to this cache, only to spot a couple of muggles WAAAAAY to close to the cache to do anything about it! As time was limited, we turned round and dashed back to the event.
Fast forward an hour and a half, and WOTWS and I had parked up near Vernon Gate, and we tried our luck with this cache. Fortunately, there was no one about. After a short search, WOTWS spotted the cache on the ground. We signed and replaced the cache where we thought it should go.
Fast forward another half an hour... WOTWS and I were on our way back from Alan McQueen's Great Escape, and we could see a couple of other cachers trying to look nonchalant. Needless to say, we gave them a shout as we walked by...

Out with team phooner's to start before the flash mob event. We could not get this one at first because it was impossible due to to muggle's but after the event myself and mr wizz did return for a second attempt. I found it on the floor so i gave it mr wizz to sign and replaced it hidden. We then moved off to do other caches before walking past this cache again on the way back towards the car and spotted some other people looking rather suspicious around gz, we knew what they was up to......

Was on a caching trip to Derby with Plasmawave for the Twelve event. Became "Team Phooners" (consisting "Spire67" & "Plasmawave" plus one each from "The 3 Wise Monkeys" & "The Muldoons" plus "Mr Wizz" & "Walk on the Wildside") We tried to find this cache before the event however two muggles were sat on the bench so we could not search for it. After the event Plasmawave and I returned to it and caught up with 3 monkeys and The Muldoons who had set off before us. They had already retrieved the cache so we just needed to sign the log. TFTC
Found this one quite quickly during a break in the flow of muggles. Signed the log and replaced as found.
Thanks for the cache

Found it together with my girlfriend Anna (Annispannis) though she don't have premium so she can't log it. We found it after a while searching. Thanks from Sweden! Cheers!
Spotted this one as I approached - surprised the little critter was not black! Took the weight off my feet; signed the log and replaced a little further back.

I parked on double yellows in the side street hoping it wouldn't take too long, unlike the other gate I did a few months ago! Thankfully, after sitting on the wrong end, I slid over and put my hand straight on it!
Cache container was left very very visible, I put container back where it presumably originally was placed, depending on hint. Thank you for showing place, spotted few very historic and old houses nearby. Greetings from Latvia!
Got to this one a a few ppl around so i had to wait a little bit before i got chance to look but again soon had the cache in had after starting at the wrong end, log soon signed and replaced.
