An action had been taken on this cache because of one of the following -

No response from the cache owner to the previous reviewer note ask for this cache to receive maintenance.
No cache to find or log to sign.
It has been more than 28 days since the last owner note.

As there has been no response I'm archiving this cache to stop it from showing up in my reviewer searches and new placement checks.

Please remember to return to the GZ and collect the cache or Check it has been removed if you have not already done so.

We don't want to litter our environment with Geotrash and if you have any TB's or coins in your cache I'm sure the owners would want them moved on.

If you decide to proceed with this cache in the next 28 days please contact me via email and I'll unarchive it for you.

This cache has now been taken off my watchlist and I will not see any notes you leave on the cache page from today

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, just contact a reviewer (by email), and assuming it still 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.
 
24-Jul-15
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention.

I am temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.

For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date or the cache will be treated as an abandoned cache and archived without further notice.

Needs attention please
 
02-Jul-15
Definate check by CO needed urgently
 
02-Jul-15
We have no idea what is going on with this one, so many DNF'S yet one supposedly found. Our second visit with a previous finder going to the exact spot and finding nothing there. This really needs to be checked by the CO to confirm its existence else it be archived.
 
02-Jul-15
No luck for me today.
To be honest I didn't spend long looking.
It might be there?
 
28-Apr-15
Going by earlier log, suspect this has been muggled or removed. Please check or archive if no longer there.
 
26-Apr-15
Searched three times over the past few months, but didn't find it.

For an easy find we spent too long looking and still no luck

No napping here !!
Moments after I rolled to a stop and parked the bike, the 'alarm bells' went off and the boom gates came down Razz

I forgot about finding the cache for a while.
For one thing, I had an audience now !!
And another was the the sight of a speeding goods train tearing around the amazingly sharp, superelevated corner was getting me full attention Razz
Great trainspotting location [^]

Not so good for cachespotting for me today Sad
 
30-Oct-14
Came searching with a previous finder but nothing here, wonder if it has been muggled considering the previous log

After a nice meal at the Port Anchor with JJ52 and locus cache we decided to get some of the local caches. Big Grin As usual I was crammed in the back of Harry with Brodie, while JJ52 enjoyed the luxurious front seat.

As we arrived this one looked like it would be easy enough, but we couldn't find it in the first few places we looked. Eventually I made the find when I broadened the search Big Grin.

None of us realised we were being watched though by a suspicious neighbour who was concerned that we were up to no good. When approached we came clean about what we were doing and he was happy with that. Gee, locus cache is so good at getting us out of trouble Wink (turns out that was a good warm up for later in the night when the police paid us a visit! Surprised)

TFTC Schnail and Foxbane!

After a nice meal with Ismartis and locus cache in Port Adelaide we decided to go and grab a few caches before heading home. Big Grin
Parked across the road and headed towards GZ and started looking in all the wrong places, then Ismartis went further afield and soon had cache in hand. Big Grin
Log book was full so locus went and got a replacement and while she was doing that the neighbour who happened to be outside at the time, came over wondering what we were doing. [?] We gave him a quick Geocaching 101 but he wasn't all that interested, just pleased that we weren't up to no good.
Thanks for the cache Schnail. Smile
 
26-Aug-14
Our first find. Log book is full
 
23-Aug-14
After being sick for an entire week and not being able to get any caches i thought i might go and do some.

I made a phone call and invite a friend, who happened to bring the bibles.

Thank you for the cache Schnail, this was number 13 for the day.

Christmas Adelaide 2013. Today was a full day spent caching with Team Seedsman out to Outer harbour and back to the North east ion the after noon. I visited a few spots I have seen before and plenty of new spots. I even found an old DNF I had been waiting to get for many years, but there are a few new ones. Thanks.

With work finished for the day it was caching time, arrived at GZ and decided to read a few logs to minimize my search time with all the traffic going past, unaware to me i was less than 30cm from the cache, no train went past which would have been pretty cool. TFTC
 
18-Oct-13
Super cool train went past just after we found it. TFTC!
 
21-Sep-13
After the Will it float event (GC4CBEH), I went caching for a short time with Mr Firesafe, Locus Cache, Honeysucker and Dennisc52.

Spotted as we were walking up to GZ, so a quick find.
 
21-Sep-13
Found in the company of locus_cache, Firesafe, Honeysucker and Knightyme after the Duct Tape Will it Float Event. Spotted this one from 5 metres away, annoying one of our group who had a DNF earlier. He says it was dark then! TFTC.
 
21-Sep-13
Was nearby for the Duct Tape Challenge event and we continued grabbing caches in the area.

My third time here and spotted it straight away. TFTC. Big Grin
 
21-Sep-13
I picked up Dennisc52 and we headed for the Lets Test Does It Float - DTC #3 event.
By day's end I had found 11 smileys Smile and no DNF's at all, thanks to the eagle eyes of Dennisc52 who managed to locus cache from metres away Cool

What else do you do after an event but cache! Wink
A 3 car convoy of firesafe, Knightyme, Honeysucker, Dennisc52 and myself set off to grab some more smileys.

Seemed someone had been here a couple o times before with no success so wanted some extra eyes to help find this cache.
A very quick find from metres away here, maybe the other geocacher had taken the name of the cache too literally Wink

Loved the cache name.
Nap had become separated from the container.
Tried to re-assemble them.
 
19-May-13
Gave nap a little love -- found him far away from his container, but knew he didn't belong there, so put them back together with some double-sided tape. Thanks, Schnail

An afternoon of caching to the north west of my usual caching area, with the intention of cleaning up all the traditionals within a 10 km radius of my home.

I tried to chase this one down some time ago, but apparently it had suffered cache creep and I didn't have time for an extended search. No such problems today, hide was exactly where it should be. TFTC Schnail and Foxbane!

After three days of celebrating Semik's birthday at the "Gonna Soak up the Sun event" it was time to head north traveling with Alansee and try our luck with some Adelaide caches.
We had a bit of trouble finding a parking spot today, but that was probably more because we wanted to park close so we could leave the car running to keep it cool.
We did not find any yowies here but it was quite an interesting location.
We could help but wonder where the rusty lines used to go.
The cache was found quickly by Alansee and we all added our names to the log.
Again out thanks Schnail and Foxbane.

Don't know about the cache creep from last time we were here Surprised, but today seemed exactly the opposite - is this really in the right spot [?].
Saw the cache as we approached GZ for an instant find today (sure we wouldn't have missed that previously) Red Face.

Thanks Schnail & Foxbane.

Find 1681
Found Reel BFE Style without the GPS as it was elsewhere.
I remember when the area was a very busy rail yard and often watched the steam trains shunting back and forth in my much younger days.
Now the area is a Field of Possibilities (GC20443 Multi-cache by MtnLioness)
The large buildings on the southern side of the area were once the the workshops of Clyde Engineering that manufactured diesel locomotives.
Thanks to Schnail and Foxbane

I was bracing myself for a hard search when it was is plain sight? Has someone moved it lol tftc
 
01-Dec-12
Hmmm... this one had suffered a bit of cache creep and the area around it had changed from when Nap was originally hidden.

Nap's position has been adjusted in order to fulfill my promise to The Ump that the cache would not be on the wrong side of the fence.

Please ensure that Nap is returned as he is currently hidden.

Thanks and happy hunting,
Schnail

Looked around for ages, read the logs, looked around again, but must be blind [|)].
We'll keep a lookout to see how others go.
