Logs
As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been longer than 28 days since the last reviewer note. I'm archiving it to keep it 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 (next 28 days), just contact us (by email) once the cache is in place, and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll 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.
Upon visiting site, seems container has been stolen. Finding a new container for the hide, will relist shortly.
B cycled to this cache location this morning but could not find. Some suspect glue on rear makes B suspect a mugglation or weatheration of the cache.

Our last day caching around the Bendigo area, for the time being.
With such good quality hides, we are looking forward to returning.
Only parts of the cache are left on site, so added a tempory log. CO will need to check this one.
Many thanks for placing this cache, MrandMrsF, for us and others to find.

Found with the geoclan after just seeing what's close by home. Could have paid the muggle neighbours of the cache $50 for a clue...they could become quite rich but we declined the offer. Eventually found, but I don't think it was in its intended spot, needs some repairs and the log is full.
TFTC on a lovely afternoon.

Catching up on logs... Found with becca85 on a day trip to Bendigo. TFTC. First of it's kind I have seen.
Quick easy find with neisha07, chan02 & boo09 on our way home after visiting a nearby friend. Log book will need replacing very soon.

Found on a day of Geocaching and Waymarking in Bendigo after making the trip with a few of the local puzzles finding themselves on my solved list, grabbed this well camo'd cache in the way to the next puzzle

What a great cache! I hadn't come across one of this type previously. Well done Mr and Mrs F!!
Thank you MrandMrsF, just what we needed as a quick break to stretch our legs on the way home from Wedderburn. Under cover of our umbrellas, we started on either side and checked it out. Muggle Hubby soon had it in hand. We sat back in the warm car and dried it off as well as we could with a towel before signing and replacing it
One of 71 caches found today during a big cache run up to and around the Bendigo region. I had a handful of puzzles solved and finding those was high on the agenda, as well as biking some more of the PPPT series. On the way back I managed to squeeze in the Fryers track series south of Castlemaine, and that was a great little adventure in the middle of the night. The weather was perfect all day and even at midnight it was still a balmy twenty degrees. I had a great day with 71 finds and 3 DNF's and my thanks go to all the CO's that placed and maintain the caches.
A nice quick find of a cache that definitely is not a box. Found as I made my way around the northern end of Bendigo.
Thanks for the cache.

Found by son on a walk on a lovely sunny ANZAC day. A different type of cache than we are used to finding. That is certainly thinking outside the box! TFTC
Out and about with Tassie Trekkers on the way to the Oz Mega. A good driveby in the rain. TFTC
Found on our "Making Memories" Tour of Mainland Australia.
Today we teamed up with whitewebbs caching our way to the Oz Mega. A quick find in the rain. TFTC

In Bendigo for weekend with other geofamily, grabbing a few caches. Happy pants came up with this quick find, so we could sign log and continue a fun afternoon. TFTC MrandMrsF.
Made this a quick find with my geo siblings today on a caching run around Bendigo this afternoon. Thanks for the cache MrandMrsF.
# 7489 Found on the 4th leg of our S.K.I.D.R.O. adventure,
while staying at Bendigo for a few days.
No sign of any muggles around and a not so quick find.
I knew what to look for but this one was elusive for a few minutes.
Thanks for the cache MrandMrsF,

A quick trip to Bendigo late today to pick up an elusive component for a repair job at home, then a slower trip home via a few caches.
This was our first GC cache stop after dropping off a couple of Weeping Angels for the current GCA Caching Game (http://www.cachinggames.com/weepingangels/index.php)
We were a little concerned about the neighbour working in his front "yard" but he paid no attention to us as we found, logged and returned the cache.
Thank you for the cache MrandMrsF.
#2550th @ 1700hrs and 1st of 5 for the day.

Clever! Got caught by the people living across the road so I explained what we were up too. She commented that she sees a lot of people here and just thought they were looking at the boxes! TFTC.
Took a little while but then the brain kicked in. Been wanting to do this one
since it came on line now we have. Great hide Log is a bit wet but managed to sign. TFTC.

#4589 We were in Bendigo for a couple of reasons, caching being one of them . So it was a stop here on our way through, fortunately for us all was quiet across the road so Dad and The GeoPrincess had a looksee for the cache. Checked here and there before the cache was located in a logical place - have seen similar containers but this one is certainly appropriate for the GZ. There was a little moisture from the recent rain but a quick wipe on the strides soon had that dealt with, the log was nice and dry. Well done on your first cache, our thanks to MrandMrsF for the cache and fun. Cheers [^]
Very clever hide Mackay picked this one up pretty quick! Found with Gypsy+Mackay TFTC
This was our 12th cache find in the caching run & we found it at 13:41
So this now makes our total find count 6356.

A nice, quick park-n-grab

Coordinate Accuracy: Excellent (Around 2 metres)
Cache Condition: Container and log book are in good shape.
Took: Nothing.
Left: Nothing
Thanks MrandMrsF for the hunt today.

This was our last stop for the day, we have seen this type of hide before, so we were in and out before causing concern for the neighbours across the road. H-P couldn't resist a peek in the dictionary. The list for box was extensive, including - pleats, office, witness and seat.

After a nice afternoon of caching, this one was a crushing disappointment. We were concerned that we possibly looked a wee bit suspicious as we hovered about. But we will have another go at a later date. It must be the area as we have had no luck with Sticks & Bricks either.Thanks for the challenge Mrand MrsF
A day's caching in Bendigo with half of The Morris (someone has to do some work!), and Bettyboo3747.
Luckily we didn't have to search inside the box!
Bettyboo had the cache in hand almost immediately (I should have parked on the other side of the road!)
Thanks, Robmc.

# 2911. Out caching this morning with The Morris and Robmc. This was our second last one before lunch. Luckily all seemed quiet across the road. We parked the car to provide a little privacy and began the search. Quickly spied the likely hide and was indeed correct. Great, quickly added our names,l returned to its spot and we were on our way. A nice hide. Thanks MrandMrsF.
Found while caching with Betty Boo and Robmc. BB was on to this one before I had pulled my hat on properly. TFTC and your first hide MrandMrsF
Arrived in Town today, set up camp at the showgrounds. Now we are off caching.
Reognised it as I have a cahe like this.
Thanks MrandMrsF

Out with our caching friends the Walenator's. We decided to do a big cache run before we have to return to the real world of work! Jumping out of box with wheels the find of yet another box was made. Now that's using the brain box!
Out for a fantastic weekend of geocaching with our caching buddies the "Earthbounds". A nice quick and easy find was had as we have a hide just like it. TFTC....SL...TNLN
Found at 4.35pm. My second attempt at this hide. I wasn't going to leave until I found it. I parked my car in the way of muggles (not that I could see any anyway). Clever and simple hide really. Good work Mr & Mrs. TFTC.
The dog was unhappily left in her box at the kennels very close to this cache, so we went to investigate. Didn't take too long to find another of your well camouflaged containers. TFTC
Found by Mary & David at 1025. We enjoyed the cache notes well before we arrived at GZ. We're probably showing our age when we confess to using printed notes. Mary enjoys reading out the details on the way to the cache, and we tried to come up with other examples. Your coffin would be your last ever box! GZ didn't disappoint, either, as it carried on the theme. Our thanks to MrandMrsF.
In town from the Red Centre visiting the kids. Bob's your uncle and I went out to tackle a great big smile face today. Caught this one on the way. Clever Hide!
This should have been a quick find, but the GPS went flat and we spent ages looking in the wrong place before we spotted the sneaky hide.
Well done!
Well done!
I have come across these ones a couple of times now, nice easy cache on the way to Horsham, TFTC
Liked the hide here. Just lucky I looked in the right place and wondered. Hmmmm. Could that be it.
Bingo and I coloured in the little box. Great first hide.

Boxes come in all shapes and sizes. In this game it is often necessary to think outside the box. After too mnay boxes under bushes one's mind can go to mush so thanks for the challenge this morning.
A quick find as we approached gz but I must say from experience not from lack of a great hide! Love these containers, the second find of yours found today! Thanks Mr and Mrs F!!
We woke up this morning to a much better day today with the sun shining and we again joined forces with Alansee to see what was in store today. We pulled up near gz and were a little concerned about being exposed to the nearby house and after making sure that there was no muggle activity we headed off to try our luck and Alansee had the cache in hand in the first place he looked and our names are now in the log.
Thanks for the cache, it's another box ticked off for us.

Pulled up to GZ with Team Crackers and got out for a bit of a look, which turned out to be just that - thanks MrandMrsF.
Suscoe made their 10thfind of the day here!
Yes we agree!
A nice hide.
Thanks to MrandMrsF for this hide!

Took us a while to find it but we finally did and were very excited. A very very clever and tricky hide!
Thanks Mr&MrsF. Great hide. Seen these type of hides before so a quick find TFTC
Found with Stooy and Aveen, Thanks for a fun cache, we had a great time searching for this one.
found this one with stooy and TQQ. what a good hide and the container was very cool. thankyou and well done on your first hide.
What a great hide. Found this arvo with Aveen and TheQuantumQuark. We looked at a few different spots until I noticed this clever hide. Thanks for a fun hide
Found by Roma and Max.
Congratulations on your first hide and a very good one it turned out to be.
We have found a number of these containers over the years but this one is the best construction we have seen and the designer has definitely been thinking outside the box!
Thanks MrandMrsF for a worthy first effort.
Cheers,
from Romax.
