Thank for the cache! Thank goodness I found it! Thought I was going to be there for days!
Hunted high and low for this fella, took me ages. Eventually spotted in the last place I looked too Gets a favourite point from me for the piss take TFTC And, now for the compulsory nano rant: "Nanos Bloody Nanos! Infuriating to find, infuriating to sign and infuriating to roll. Spawn of satan. Burn down the Nano factory, and exterminate anyone who hides Nanos."
We are staying in Adelaide for a week and have a couple of days before my niece joins and and we start the catch ups with family over here We targeted high FP caches as well as others nearby. This was next on the list and surprisingly for a nano was a nice easy find Loved the log "book" FP for the laugh

This one was a nice easy find thanks to the hint. I was expecting something else but was pleasantly surprised with what I found! For once a nano that deserves a favourite point. TFTC!
Goldy and Goose are back and finding caches! Today on a tour in and around the Eastern suburbs area.
We aimed for DNFs, ones we've been eyeing off for a while and/or ones that looked interesting.
When the rain picked up we made our way towards home but then it stopped so I took Goose around for some caches around the airport. Goldy found 8 caches and GooseyC found a few more with the ones I had done already.
We also finished with a FTF to end the day right.
I was curious about how a nano cache had 50 favourite points, the world has gone mad!
We got to GZ and GooseyC made the find, then I understood. In fact I'm not adding my own favourite point.
Very good, really loved this.
Thanks Team Scoobster for this cache, which brings Goldy's total find count to 2570 on the 6th of March 2023.
I have hosted quite a few CITO's in my time, making huge differences thanks to the people who came along!
Whether you're out finding caches or just taking a stroll somewhere, remember to always be CITO-ing to help maintain our parks and reserves!
**South Australia is the place be for GCA1DNA - February 29th, 2024 in Adelaide! Hope to see you at The Great Leap Forward!**

I actually came here in my early days of geocaching and couldn’t find this cache.
I put it down to the fact that it’s the start of spring and there are no leaves on the vine that made this so easy to find….. I really don’t know how I didn’t spot this the first time I came

Found it yay! Had been here previously and couldn’t find it, must be our lucky day. Favourite Point added
This morning the plan had been to kayak but the weather forecast for today didn’t look great so another adventure was planned.
This involved wellingtons, UV torch, torch and bringing a change of clothes (not required)
Fun day of caching only 11 for the day including 2 treks through drains and a celebration event.
Took the opportunity to find this one whilst in the area. Nice quick find, liked it!! That log is going to last another 30 years!! TFTC

Angry at myself for leaving the pen at home.
Log would've been annoying to roll up anyway tftc

Hehehehehe that made me smile and cachehunter swear. Rolled and fits just like a nano but was not what we were expecting. Fp awarded
Found with NiciDanielle. I love this imposter Nano, complete with its imposter Nano log book. Love the story behind it also, we'll be sure to start leaving nano's everywhere just for Freddo. TFTC
Probably not a good idea to do this on bin day (Thursday) because wherever you park you are in front of somebody’s bin, and the locals glare at you.
A quick find here and no rant from me. I love the log.
Thanks Team Scoobster.

Logging a day late, but the walk uphill from our place was well worth the find. Great logbook!! Thaaanks
Quick find while out and about with the girls.
Nice to find a good size nano

Great stuff scoobsters, this is so clever. Take that Nano Freddo!! Wet as soon under here but the cache is dry as a Texas waterfall. FP for you. Hand San used
Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi.
Have had a couple of prior attempts at this one, both unsuccessful. First time, was rudely interrupted by a muggle council rubbish truck driving and reversing up and down the roadway, so abandoned that attempt. Second attempt, as with the first, searched according to the hint but still couldn't find anything, and suddenly there was a Parade of muggles wandering past so again, had to abandon the attempt..
This morning, there was not a soul in sight. So I conducted the search, yet again, in all the same places and still found nothing. Widened the search area in One Direction, Still found nothing, then went back and finally found the cache in an area that wasn't really expected. Stamped the log and still had to go through the ritual of rerolling the log. Would be nice to miss out on that ritual. Nice one though, very clever. Finally glad to get this one off the map.

We all know the story of how a nano met freddo and the freddo rant is Australian known. It was great to be able to find a larger version of such thing. TFTC
Was driving in the area trying to target a cache waypoint nearby. Swung past to this one as it was raining. Looking, looking, and really didn't want to do a detailed search as all the nearby plants were wet. Eventually made the find and was bigger than what I had anticipated. The logbook was pretty cool and fitted this cache's theme nicely, thanks Scoobster!
Cache #1840.
Today I went to Glenunga for an appointment, and found some caches on the way. Luckily no DNFs today.
This was the eighth find.
Parked around the corner, and started searching. Cannot find the cache. Decided to reveal the hint, and now it's much easier. Cache has been found. Surprise surprise, it's not nano at all.
The container was wet and muddy, but condition of inside is much better. This might be the longest log sheet I've even seen.
Signed the log sheet, and rehid the cache.
Thanks for the cache, Team Scoobster.

Damn nano's... then again.. this one wasn't quite as bad. Took a little while to find but we did see it.. Took a bit of a reach to retrieve it from the right side. Signed and logged= smiley and happy dance with SA Sewerats.

This cache was a surprising 10^8 nanometers in length, quite girthy for a cache in this category... Tftc.
Woo hoo the stars and planets have aligned and myself, Mrs M&M and Andy C. all have the day free to go caching.
It seems I am the only one who hadn't done this one. The first problem was finding a way to get to it. Mr. Garmin didn't realise that some streets were no longer through roads. Eventually I got close to GZ and although the ladies urged me to park on the corner I found a more appropriate park and walked to GZ. A surprisingly short search led me to have the little critter in hand.
Very clever Team Scoobster. You get a FP because I don't think any kittens needlessly died because of the placement of THIS nano. [:o)] Damn no need for the rant either.
Thanks Team Scoobster for the cache

We poked our heads into the greenery and looked this way and that way and counted, we played with the leaf matter and guess what we pulled out, an item that was shaped very much like a plum pudding container. The cache is in good condition. SL TFTC
One of 2 DNFs for the day. CO notified, but it was wet put and perhaps the cache was there... Time will tell.
When I arrived at GZ and found the hide was gonna be "In That!" tangled mess around all that leaf litter how am I gonna find a Nano in there? [:o] In I went rustling about (trying not to disturb the Muggles in the closest house to the east of me where I could hear their voices behind their very handy 'shield' of a fence). I thought: "Man! how deep do I gotta go before I find something 'bitey' in here?!" (Lucky this isn't the north coast of NSW where another leaf-litter dwelling famous Australian Arachnid lives [:o]). Found me a "9-Month Pregnant" Nano lol. Discovered the awesome log-scroll within. [fave point for this cache/hide and for that "log book"] (I feel sorry for the future cacher that has to log when it's around half used, lmao ) Stamped Log at 11:10 on Sat. 4 June 2016. TFTC Team Scoobster
Accurate coordinates and the hint led to a quick find of a well hidden cache and it wasn't nano in size, The cache and contents were in good condition. Thanks Team Scoobster for the cache.
I came chasing a nano for freddos nano challenge and surprise I found one, someone has a sense of humour. stamped log and awarded fav point.
Found it with CherryRose. Just love this nano. Favourite point. TFTC TNLNSL
I arrived in Adelaide late this afternoon and immediately zipped out for a walk to log some caches. This was one of the finds. Thanks for the cache Team Scoobster; great to meet you and the family while visiting.
Best nano we've ever found. Geopartner did the deed after I had a superficial look and feel about. He looked so funny with his posterior sticking out of the foliage. Take another favourite! Thanx
Arriving at GZ, I found a handy leaning spot for the pushbike
It was obvious where a nano would hide here,
but the bushes surrounding the hiding place had me worried [:o]
A poke here, a feel there, and ...
... hang on !! Found it
Logbook signed,
there was one chore left to perform.
Rolling the log scroll back up tight enough to fit it back in the damn container !! [:(!][:(!][:(!]

Fantastic looking 'nano'. Don't think that log book will need replacing anytime soon! TFTC
Found by Mrs A while out and about with Schatzuche1 and Southern Cross Caching. We had Miss 8 in tow who loves finding caches

Needed a cache for the day and found myself down around this way. Failed spectacularly on a nearby nano cache so decided this 'nano' would be a better option instead! Loved the log book, I'm sure this is just the kind of nano hide that Freddo gets excited about. TFTC Team Scoobster!
Found It!
The think the following version of the famous nano rant is perfect for this cache:
Bloody PM only caches! Spawn of Satan! Burn down the PM only caches and exterminate anyone who conceives them!
TFTC anyway

This has to be my favourite Nano of all time. I thought I had the correct location and cursing and swearing about bloody nanos. Thought we will just expand the search a little bit and there is it a magnetic shaped nano with rolled up log. We rolled out the log and managed to find space to write our names. TFTC
This is a definate Nano that everyone needs to find. A favourite point from us

Nanos.... grrrr

A amazing hide in a lovely area which I would not have ever knew about if it was not for this nano!
Hold on this is a nano!
Bloody nanos spawn of satin burn them all,

Still a nice sneaky hide and a very enjoyable find with Lucia Doyle 123!
