yes i got slimmed and spilled most of the contents but found no log, does this count.
TFTC found with Thee Mole but we did get slimed. There were pieces of what looked like logs close but no book. Not sure about this one ??
Another lovely day for caching. Had the bike on the back the mighty Caldina so I took it off and rode the rail trail. Found the slime, but no log to be seem, just bits of gloop and vegetation. Thanks for the hide.
Well we think we found it - but couldn't find the log - there was a trace of it on the ground near the main find. So it seems to need some maintenance. This one was a bit tricky to access up the steep embankment for my old Mum - but she did it.

This was a cool cache, lots of fun and a really great idea. Worth a favourite point. TFTC

Thanks Bitsprayer spent the next hour getting slime out of my hair face and finger nails loved the cache great fun. TFTC
Spotted the cache quickly, opened it ..... oh no.... but did anyway. Bit of an evil cache and it should need regular checking by the CO. TFTC
Slime first, then log.
81 of 270 for a day stretching from Danseys to Thompson's Track.

4859. On our way home to Christchurch from the Mega Event in Dunedin we decided to spend a couple of nights in Oamaru while geocaching in the area. After the first night this was our full day caching in the Weston area and in Oamaru itself. Got up early and did four caches before breakfast. Then after breakfast off we went, starting with this mini power trail. This was the seventh cache of the day - a quick and easy one - with a bit of a surprise! Thanks for the cache, Rodney and Iris.
Decided to go down to Dunedin to attended the first ever Mega in New Zealand and my first ever MEGA. Managed to work it out so that I was able to team up with -gonefishing-, fozzmiester and agcnz on an 9 day caching trip around the South Island, this was day 7 of the road trip. Today we were making our way form Oamaru to Timaru for the night and picking up a few caches on our way and it was another beautiful fine day.
After finding GC3VE1K - Matryoshka (Otago), we decided to continue on our way down this small power trail and see if we could find this cache. What a bit of a pity that I didnt have a bike with me as it would be so much easier.
The walk to GZ really didnt take too long from the previous cache to GZ, we managed to make our way to GZ without any issues and once there it didnt take too long and we soon spotted something that required a closer inspection, and we soon realised that it was the cache.
Managed to retrieve the cache, signed and then replaced the cache back where I found it. Thanks Bitsprayer for placing this cache here and for bringing me to this spot, TFTC TNLNSL (5242). Another quick and easy find here today, was glad that Geo was happy to come out and be found and we didnt get slimed with this one, very clever indeed.
Now what is the next cache that we need to find today.

Found as part of an epic NZ Mega Event trip. Day 7 - Oamaru and surrounds before heading North to Timaru in the company of agcnz, -gonefishing- and Yeetrees. Thanks to the owners of the 500 + caches which I had the pleasure to find along the way and which contributed to a very fun trip.

Found on the great post-Mega roadtrip with agcnz, fozzmiester and yeetrees. A great trip from Otago to Wellington, taking in many backroads and some fantastic scenery along to way to over 400 caches. Thanks to all the cache owners for the great caches we found on the way.
Thanks for the cache, Bitsprayer.
Thanks for the cache, Bitsprayer.
Came here with fozzmiester, -gonefishing- and Yeetrees on on a trip inland from Oamaru and ending up at Timaru for the night.. The cache was found quickly - sgned log, TFTC!
Reperio at 1020.
Came by here with Roostaman on a slight detour to Geraldine today, and we stopped off to grab the caches along this trail. Next in line along the trail was this one, and this has to be one of the weirdest caches I have come across. I ended up with that stuff all over my hands trying to get this back into the container!
Gratias Bitsprayer.

Find # 4585 and a total of 77 today with Marcus Vitruvius, on our NZ Mega trip.
Another day of Mega caching from Dunedin to Geraldine.
Another nice cache and hide and then on the way again.

Found along with bogonghazy after the Mega Event, while picking up as many as we could before leaving Dunedin and beginning the trek towards Christchurch and the inevitable trip home. Sadly the weather had begun to turn on us this morning, but like true Ozzie troopers we continued our NZ assault armed with raincoats. Thanks to the CO for placing this cache, and for bringing us here.
Last day in Dunedin for Sully1 and I as we visited as many caches as we could before making our way to Oamaru for the last night in NZ. The cold fierce wind today didn't deter us and the range of hides was once again a large one.
This was a quick find again, thanks Bitsprayer, giving it a fave for the originality

A quick find on a beautiful day.

I visited your cache as part of a week-long self indulgent Geocaching trip from Nelson to Bluff and back again. I apologise for not leaving a completely personalised log, but I do want to thank you for the time, money and effort you put into placing your caches. Without people like you who place caches, there would be nothing for the rest of us to come and find. You are fantastic

Another early morning trekker along this track this morning so being the gentleman I stepped to one side whilst the person and two dogs passed. Once they were out of sight I was able to search without interruption. Found what I was looking for and while watched by the audience over the fence I struggled with the slime!
Thanks, a diffrent encounter!

FTF! Found by Geomum as I had to be at school. According to Geomum, she sat under a tree with the cache to sign the clean log book when she felt a warm breath down the back of her neck, and upon turning around to see the source of this breath she found a young calf standing behind her, peering at her with big brown eyes while slobber dripped from its mouth - the cacher narrowly managed to avoid a sliming this time! TFTC!
