Woohoo!! I found it
I had this one in my GPS still, and decided to have a look for it. I checked out a few likely spots based on the hint, and was stoked to find the cache in one of them.
Caked in sand, and looking very weathered, I tried hard to open the nano, but it was seized shut. I looked in my car for pliers, but didn't have any, so I have taken a photo for proof of finding this nano.
Thanks for the cache owneroperator! And if anyone else comes to find it please bring pliers and also add my name to the log, thanks

No luck here today. Looked at several structures mentioned in the hint, plus some others. Will try again... maybe!
owneroperator - jinta29 had to DNF your cache AGPS05 on 13/01/2015 5:27 am. I searched but didn't find the cache
After leaving work early due to a severe weather warning, I took the opportunity to grab some muggle free caches. I have been saving these ones close to home for a rainy day, and today is almost rainy... Found this one fairly quickly, and sat down to write in the log. The cache fell apart in my hands, but I managed to re-assemble it before placing it back in position. TFTC owneroperator
Spent the day with my family (jasenjanine) caching around this area... This was one we found on our adventure today Thanks owner operator!
Out with the family today to conquer the villains and to find a few other caches along the way... My turn to find this one whilst the rest of the family watched on from the car Thankfully no muggles here today & a quick find was made!
TFTC owner operator FYI, the logbook is rather tatty & nearly full.

Thanks for the cache. Took a little bit of searching, gee some of those micros are tricky!
Dropped in this morning on the way to work. Park was deserted so made for a quick hunt.
Found the little bliter quickly and signed the log and replaced.

Found, while caching in the area.
This is a lovely little park, great facilities for the kids.
No muggles around at this time, being 7.30am.
Many thanks for the cache, owneroperator.

After having done home owner jobs for 3 days in a row on the Easter Holiday weekend I decided I deserve Easter Monday off and enjoy the day doing some caching so I didn't say no this time when mistraluna asked if I wanted to come out to play.

Caught the train up today and was picked up by Me&B at Cockburn station. This was another one that was taunting me each time I drove past on the freeway. Big thanks to the geofairy who replaced this one, and thanks to owneroperator for the original hide.
Looked at finding one a little North of here, but didn't attempt it due to the 10 or so kids enjoying the area.
This time it was a clear search, and a quick find. Thanks owneroperator for this one

easy find the clue gives it away, have previously looked for this in old co-ordinates.
I didn't read the logs so imagine my surprise when I found the cache but it wasn't a mint tin. 4th find on my jog. TFTC.
KB found magnets from previous cache...so she temporarily replaced with a nano until owner can revisit.....cheers owneroperator
Found a magnet but no cache (presumably the magnet must've been on the outside of the cache?). Spoke to prior finder who confirmed location of missing cache. I had a nano with me and it didn't sound as though you were in a position to maintain this cache (I hope I interpreted your note correctly) so I replaced the cache. I am hoping you would be able to update the listing to reflect the "micro" cache and if you are able to change the hint, "Base of pole" reflects the new location. The new GZ is only 2m from the old cache and my GPSr showed a decent reading at the new GZ so I don't believe the coordinate will need updating. Sorry if any of this is against your wishes. As the owner of the cache you can of course still choose to archive the cache if you want. Thanks for finding this lovely location.
Sorry guys. I've moved house and am no longer in the area to maintain this.
It seems to have had a few DNFs. If a few more pop up I'll archive it.

G'day all.
As per the note below I will endeavour to get out and do some maintenance this week.
If you are intending on heading out to find the series please take a spare log just in case you find the cache and you can replace it...

Second stop for the day, hoping to get a head start before all the muggle children start their school holidays this afternoon. This one proved to be elusive, and I would be logging a DNF if I hadn't found what looked like the soggy remains of bits of paper with people's names on, the same names as I found in a nearby cache. I did a pretty thorough search, re read the logs, then searched again, but still came up empty handed. Will wait to hear from the CO as to whether it is still there or not, but I suspect that it might not be where it should be. Thanks anyway owneroperator
Mr & Mrs Felix southside today to tackle some more of the periodic table. Managed to pick up these few caches aswell.
Another nice park here.
This took wayyyy tooooo long for us to find. Thought we were going to have to leave as Mrs Felix had to get home to leave for work at 1800 for nightshift!
Finally got it sorted and headed off to the next.

Geocaching by bike, has to be my favourite way to Cache, so after completing the bike power trail close by on the Kwinana, Tanzanite and I cycled in to Aubin Grove for some lunch and to complete this mini AGPS series.
Would of helped me a lot if I had actually read the Cache listing before starting my search, but despite this soon came up with Cache.

The Machman and I decided to swing past and grab this series after we completed the periodic table power trail.
A nice little series taking in the local scenery.

Found after widening the search. The magnet is not holding the cache in place, so it is not under.
Thanks owneroperator.
Thanks owneroperator.
rudi63 and I were off on a bit of a hunt to the north of our noraml stomping grounds today and as we wandered through the area we thought we would tick the Aubin Grove Parks Series off of our list.
When we first stopped by this one there was a muggle couple in the park and we could not even have a little look for it. When we came back they were gone and I had the cache in hand in a couple of miutes.
Thanks for the cache owneroperator. I have enjoyed coming to all of these little parks in the area
Cheers

Today, Mr. Wileyclan and I had approval to spend the day looking for some caches. We looked at the map and noticed the new caches in the Coogee Hamilton Hill area. So the decision made we left early and first head to Woodman point to attack the caches in this area.
We had just completed the Dr Who villian series, and were in Aubin Grove, a quick drive though this new area, to some nice parks and the ability to complete another series today.
Our second time here today, the first was a bust due to a couple of muggles and a puppy sitting very close to the GZ, On this return the park was muggle free, and the cache was quickly in our hands.
Thanks owneroperator.

Having found one or two of these before we added 5m west to the GZ before looking and was much closer in the search area. Keego found first as I found again the homeowners very interested in what we were doing. Stealth and diversion was used to get and hide the cache again.
Out and about with AmstradKid, doing some maintenance when on the way to the coffee shop, we decided to scout this cache out. Searched all the obvious places and came up empty, we did have the feeling of eyes from the windows of the houses. Fortunately I had my urban camo gear on so while AK was looking like a normal muggle I widened the search area and the cache was soon found, SL TFTC owneroperator
I was thrown off by the hint on this one. After searching and coming up empty I read the description again and realised I was looking for a mint container. Mmmm not too many places to hide one of those. It certainly narrowed down the options and the cache was soon located.
