Looked around for ages before looking at previous logs and noticing it hasnt been found in quite a while! Will post a needs maintenance too...
No finds since January except for a "didn't have pen" caper. Could do with a CO check?
Had found it twice showing the girls how to use this app never had a pen to put my name in it
#2643 (8 of 8 today) (Streak day 257)
Haven't had a day recently when I've grabbed more than 2 or 3 caches, so thought I'd head west and pick up a decent swag today.
By the time I headed home - hoping to beat the storm - I'd bagged 8 but with a few DNFs thrown in.
Didn't quite beat it, though - got caught about 10 minutes from home.
[center]END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION[/center]
Didn't realise it until I arrived, but this is the scene of a previous DNF for me.
Unlike that time, there was almost no one at GZ - a workman at the place over the road was it, and he rarely had sight of it.
Like last time, I went round and round in circles a bit (to the tuneful bass of thunder) until I spotted something unusual - CIH!
DNF expunged.
Not 100% sure it was where it was supposed to be, but replaced it logically right near where I found it.
The camo is a little the worse for wear - possibly making the find easier.
Definitely time for home.

Found with bgranahan. Found at night. Was a little hard. Great camo. Mozzies were ridiculous.
This one was made trickier with my car gps going round and round trying to find a way into the complex. Once at GZ, think I just got lucky spotting the camo after a short search. Nice job!
Found on 11th November. after a few attempts, walked up to it first time. Lol. Tftc
Aussie was bowling nearby with the Air League so I headed off to grab this just down the road. Tftc great camo gave you a favourite point for this. SL
took me like 1 week just to find but this but i finally found it "just hanging around" tftc
I'm not sure if it's in the right spot. My daughter found it and put it back. Might need to check on it.
No luck today. A hint would have been helpful maybe. Will keep an eye on activity and try again next time in area
Ooh, difficult...
Muggles galore, including two yakking not far from GZ.
Did what search I could without looking too suss, but spotted nothing.
Decided to give it up as I'm on a deadline here.

Tricky find but new eyes from geo daughter found it almost immediately. Tftc.
Found it! Lovely and cool in the rain of the storm ))
I love it when I find these before the hubby does lol TFTC fav point given for cleverness

This was a previous DNF for us. We returned today and searched again and found the cache.
I loved the como. Well done. This has earned a favourite point from us.

Not am easy find after midnight lol but persisted and made the find. Log was full sorry wrote over someone else's name. TFTC
Coordinates were spot on. I think I was very lucky to have found this within a minute of arriving. I have spent a lot of time on similar caches. tftc.
Not sure how I missed this on my last attempts. Maybe it was the thought of all the little curious eyes watching from this childcare cul-de-sac.
Log is full and needs replacing.
Thanks for the cache.

I had time to make a quick stop here before heading to the tenpin bowling centre. I had looked unsuccessfully for this one a few months back when I was but a newbie. This time I spotted something that looked a bit suspicious almost straight away and was able to grab the cache without attracting attention from any of the cars heading out of the basketball stadium. I liked the camo which, interestingly, was identical to that on another cache I found in the area this afternoon.
Thanks for a nice hide ADAcache ... something a bit different to the norm and I quite liked it.

Found on an epic caching expedition to uncover Trainspotter and other nearby caches starting at Schofields and ending up near Bligh Park / Windsor Downs. Wasn't too hopeful of finding this one, and did go round and round a few times and was just about to give up when I spotted something a little out of place and had CIH. SL TFTC ADAcache!
Couldn't resist the temptation of grabbing some last minute caches, before leaving Sydney.
We enjoyed this one - a good piece of camo, which blended in well.
Many thanks for placing this cache, ADAcache, for us and others to find.

A few mins looking around & around, untill I saw it just hanging around. On a quiet Queens birthday hols. TFTC.
Made my way down the thin black line again early this morning, Every tradie on the Central Coast must work in Sydney with the amount of utes and traytops heading south. First stop North Ryde to get the Geo Truck serviced and then out to South Windsor to get some work done on the tray. The sad part of my life is I can’t travel anywhere on business without first checking what caches are available in the area. So hopefully I’ll pick up a few along the way. Great cache. TFTC
A great little hide and so quiet on Australia Day. Geoson 2 got this sneaky hide. TFTC
Happy Australia Day!!! What better way to spend it than caching ...Nice quick find by geomum, tried to hide it a little better than we found it...T4TC

Another quick and easy find. I thought I was going to encounter muggles given the location but had no such issues. Tftc Tnln sl
Grest camo! Only talk a couple of minutes then bang found something out of the ordinary! Tftc!
Such awesome camo! Took me awhile and I even picked up the cahe without realising!
I didn't get to go round and round as the hide was spotted straight away.
Can see why others have dificulty with it.
Nice hide.

Another Adacache/Windsor cache completed. Spotted the nice camo after a short search around GZ.

Quick park and grab, first place I put my hand. Everything in great condition, returned to exact location with consideration of hiding the obvious component. TFTC
9:55:00 AM, GAFF4, Another difficult hide where I was going around and around trying to get a solid lock on the GPSr and poking around. After reading previous logs I had an rough idea what I was in for but still came up empty handed.
I resorted to PAF who after cryptic hints then where to look still came up empty handed.
After widening my area of search I eventually located the hide on the ground.
SL, cache in good condition. Cache replaced where a previous finder described.
Worthy of a Fav point for the effort in the camo.

True to her name this had me going round and round. Took a while to find but I was keen to make the find so persisted. And there she was. Very quiet here today. TFTC.

Heading up to the Windosr invasion with Tankengine, Albida and Sol De lune from Canberra, signed logs with "Mast" or a sticker to save space.
Parked on the main street as we missed the entrance , a tricky hide but we had more numbers on this search and Farmers 5 sigght the blighter a sticky one to be sure.

Windsor trip June 2013 with Mtrax, Tankengine, Sol de Lune and Farmers 5. We really made getting to this one hard, with a few dead ends and closed roads to make it more entertaining. At least when we got there the cache was successfully found. Thanks.

Found with our friends Sol De Lune, Tankengine, Albida and mtrax on a caching weekend around the region.
Took a few peeks here and there before we nabbed the sneaky hide.
Many thanks to ADAcache for the hide.

OK - a tiny little bit of a tad sneaky! Glad if seen plenty of those before!
Found on our Windsor Invasion weekend with Mtrax, Albida33, Sol de lune and Farmers5!
We had stickers for many of the finds, but where the log was too small, we signed it as "MAST" "MAST5" or "MAST F5"(Mtrax, Albida33, Soldelune, Tankengine, Farmers5). All in all, had a great weekend, well, up until the Sunday, when the rain set in! Thanks !

After completing the Windsor PT and still having a few hours to spare, we decided to hit the train spotter series, along with a few others in the area.
W did go round and round for a bit, but all was good once at GZ...and Mr Farmers 5 came up with the clever hide. Well done on the camo.......

This one did make me go round and round. A good 10 minutes went by before spotting this cache, good camo used. Other hiders in the area should take note, a simple cache but very well done. TFTC.
Got help from a PAF as I was trying to do this one in the dark. Satellites aren't very good in this area as I couldn't get a lock on GZ. SL #810 on streak day #293 TFTC
Loved this hide, not what I expected.
The place was deserted and not a muggle in sight, SL TFTC

Geoson and I had just found the nearby Water tower cache and decided to look for this one as well.
After Geoson walked round and round I had a turn and found cache after ruling out a couple other possibilities.

Round and round we searched. Dodging muggles dropping off kids nearby.
Sadly, we left empty handed.

We had no luck here today, but with plenty of muggles coming and going we didnt want to stay for long
Turned up to what I thought was GZ spent 20mins chasing my tail so I pafed SIH for GZ conformation a short search bingo cih.
Nice job on the camo I hope the locals take some tips on this one,
Cheers

Found by GeoDad after going round & round & round & round......gotcha. TFTC.
Brought Team Zump out with us as this is just around the corner from their house! This was their 2nd find and a rippa and our day 51 streak find! She loved the way this was hidden. TFTC!
A very little clever hide and I would never thought to find it and it was lucky for me to have sevabo who found it before me. TFTH
