Out with 3LG and earthlight doing a mix of maintenance and general caching for the Hidden Creatures challenge. TFTC.
Quick find while waiting for the doctor. We drive this road pretty frequently and never quite know the history of the building. Thanks CO!
I was busy makin' caching bacon today
So I popped by the olde Chapman's factory for a quickish cache find [^]
TFTC.
MMMM !! Bacon ... (drool)
There's a little bit of Homer in all of us
Even the vegans out there,
who crave vegan sausages !! [:o]
What's with vegan sausages anyway ??
Are you a vegan or not !!
Stop using meat lovers terms to describe your 'orrible reincarnations of a BBQ favourite

Thanks to Brisal5 doing maintenance for me whilst I am travelling this cache is now all ok.
Out for a drive in the hills this morning picking up a few stray caches along the way. [^] This one was a random stop on my way back to Mount Barker and home. Strangely my GPSr had not picked up the new coordinates even though I had updated my pocket queries. [?] After I checked my phone I found I was parked right at the new GZ.
Thanks for the cache earthlight.

Quick stop and find while in Nairne to visit our cousin. Found with Cara81. TFTC
This is the tenth find for us in this 'winding way' series. We've been slowly logging caches in the series since September 2012.
A good series can't be rushed. [:o)]
This one didn't take too long to find thanks to the explicit hint.
Thanks earthlight.

Finally found this. It's been 3 years since we were here from Canada. Couldn't find it then so glad we did this time. TFTC
Found it, it had been left in the gutter! Maybe the recent storm did it. Either way lucky find
Quick find while passing through. Having fun grabbing some SA caches while holidaying! TFTC
This was my second visit and got this right away. Can't believe I didn't see this before. TNLN Cheers.
""Sneaky Squeaky" Woz ere" A quick but enjoyable find. From Me To You From SQ72 T.F.T.C
Woohoo!!! TFTC
Another cache that was a DNF last time. This time there was less traffic and we read the logs and the hint.
But I do agree that nanos are painful.

Today we have come to Nairne to spent time with brisal5 to do some caching, puzzle learning and attend the Tardis lunch. We snuck this one in before arriving. SL TFTC
It's amazes me how much a place can change in the space of a few years 2 years ago I was delivering meat here for 2 company's that operated out of here and although it didn't look great back then it looked alot better than it does now
Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos.
This was actually a fairly easy find once we waited for the traffic and found the correct pipe.
This was a familiar landmark on our family drives to Adelaide. Mrs Gizmo's uncle once worked here. Sad to see it is no longer the thriving business it was.
Another WWTN cache ... we still have a few to find.
TNLNSL TFTC earthlight!

An easy find, but cue the rant nonetheless: Bloody Nanos! Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who sells Nanos. TFTC. 23/03/2016, 14:49 Find #1803
Cache missing. Replaced a few meters away. Hint now ---watch you don't get wet. Hopefully will last a bit longer.
I throughly checked every brown pipe. I think it's still missing.
I'm quite disappointed as this was going to be my first geocache. Oh well.

Nice hide for an open and busy traffic area. Out with upsanddowns for a day of caching.

Poor Old Chappy gone a missing. Can well remember this being a booming business.
I have been past here a couple of times, but never had time to stop for caching. Today there was an inspection for an auction at Bush Timbers woodyard opposite (closing down and moving overseas ) so after choosing my lots for bidding online later, I took a little time between traffic to grab a little birthday present for myself. I think it took longer to cross the road than to find it.
That is indeed tiny! World's smallest cache? Impossible to sign though, didn't want to unroll that.
Owl was on driver duty for a friend who had an appointment in Littlehampton. With time to spare, she felt the need to cache. This was one of the last WWtN's she has to do and an easy find.
