As per previous comment in the log, I am archiving this...didn't realise just disabling it wasn't enough. My apologies.
 
27-Feb-16
Went to look ofr this cache then read through the past logs. Hasn't been found in over a year and was disabled nearly 6 months ago with CO not registered as being online since this time either. Probably time to free up the space for a new cache as it looks like a deserving location.
 
18-Sep-15
Perhaps this one needs to go off line until it is replaced to prevent other unsuspecting travellers from falling prey to this miss.
 
18-Sep-15
Apologies, but I have moved to a different town, so am disabling this until I can get back to Levin to replace this cache.
 
17-Sep-15
2 Travelling Australians who didn't read the logs before going in for the hunt wasted considerable time trying to find this one that is definitely MIA.
 
12-Aug-15
The coords lead us onto the middle of the lawn, we followed the hint but no cache is found.
I think it might be muggled.
 
25-Jul-15
Unable to find bad luck
 
25-Jun-15
Unsure if catch has been replaced
 
13-Apr-15
Stopped by to replace log book and check on cache after seeing the previous DNF's
Cache is no longer there, had a quick search in the surrounding bushes to no avail.
I'll see if I can find a suitable container to replace the missing one.
 
05-Apr-15
We too tried lots of holes here today (except any near the decomposing rabbit carcass) and unfortunately came away empty handed so will add to our watch list and see how others get on.
 
07-Mar-15
Tried lots of holes here - must have missed it - will try again another day

31-Dec-14
Log book very very full - have to write on the cover. Very pleasant stop and clever hiding place. Had to run across the road (felt like a fast chicken) as we thought it was on the other side on the side street at first. Gee the Wellington traffic is constant. Thanks very much for the cache .
 
28-Dec-14
Mrs NZTtavellers had this cache earmarked for our trip down to Wellington but circumstances prevented us doing it. Heading home and Mrs NZTravellers remembered and just pulled up on side of road and ordered me out. I tried starting the geocache app and the phone froze necessitating a phone restart. By this time Mrs and Miss NZTravellers were shouting across the road what was I doing. Eventually phone started and the app found the cache and I could start looking. I had just laid hand on the cache and an impatient Mrs NZTtavellers jumped out of the car and across the road. Yes I have found it just signing log now. TFTC

The problem is which hole to look in. Got it second hole. TFTC
 
18-Jan-14
This is not a cache where you would expect muggles to be standing at the exact GZ but when I arrived there were two. So I wandered around the neighbourhood for a while but they were still there. I assumed they were waiting for a ride but after nothing happened for a while I decided to approach them and see if all was OK and discreetly held my GPS in case they were cachers! They were indeed waiting for.a ride and told me it was to be in a big truck, so I moved on and discreetly observed from a distance till the truck arrived. Once all was clear a quick find of a cache in excellent condition.
TFTC.

Found this cache this afternoon. It was deep inside the palm and when I returned it I am sure I heard the cache fall further. Sorry, but I could not reach it. Hopefully your arms are longer than mine. Other than that thanks for the cache, traffic very busy so we had to take many useless photos of greenery.

Day 10 of our Mega roadtrip to Auckland. Today was our last day in the North Island while driving back to Wellington. We stopped at this on the way up but it was spitting and REALLY windy so we didnt stick around too long. Back today and on a time limit to get back to Wellington early. It mustve been quite far down. Thanks anyway Sad

The GPS wasn’t very helpful as it had us about 10 metres north of the cache, but the cache description and hint made for a quick easy find. We also experienced the thrill of a train passing very close by while we were there. TFTC

Picked this up (at least Mr RiffRaff did) amidst the pouring rain. Didn't get many done this trip but were determined to grab a couple at least. TFTC

Before heading into Wellington for the day to watch the All Blacks take on the Wallabies in Bledisloe Cup action (we won, woo!), I stopped to grab a cache for the 31 days or caching challenge put on by Groundspeak. A nice easy find and no creepy crawly things in that dark hole. TFTC.
