Favourite point for this one.. Another great find. Thanks for hiding this cache for our enjoyment groovydoo
Found after while. I figured it was something like this but then went off on a differe t tangent. The boys in blue slowed down going past me but must have decided there was more interesting people to chat to than ones being random outside the showground . Tftc groovydoo I've had a good afternoon chasing your caches round dorrigo
Called here earlyer to day could not find it, came back in the afternoon had a good look .ya found it. That was a good hidetftc
Thanks groovydoo for the cache. It’s #1231 for us. We found your cache on 20 February 2020. This is indeed a clever variation on an old theme. Favourite Point from us.
Found while on a geocaching holiday with tmann421.
Enjoyed the trip around and all the great hides.
Stamped TM/WW NZ, or if in pen our full names

Have had Dorrigo on my "must do" list for quite some time and finally the planets and stars have aligned and we set off on a glorious winter's day. So we found this one - just had to have the right angle! If only we had done this one first before "The Loo" and we haven't got time to go back. Cunning hide.
Staying in Moonpar hideaway near Bostobrick for a few days whilst on a road trip from Sydney to Brisbane. Nice quick find here.

Nice find. We’re staying at the Showgrounds for a couple of days and was a great place to base ourselves for some caching and site seeing
Aha, now I've found this one I have a sudden urge to revisit "The Loo" up the road...
Caching with WandaWombat today.

Found by Sunshine Toledo and Her Majesty at 6:20pm. That took a while. TFTC
We have been staying at the free camp in Thora with our caravan and using it as a base to cache around Bellingen and Dorrigo to as far as Ebor. Fabulous countryside and we have loved the creative hides. Fav point alloc. Thankyou groovydoo for placement of this cache and sharing this special spot with us.
Found with my Dad and little brother on our Australia Day weekend adventure....

Find #1814
What a day! After a worrisome weather forecast yesterday, perfect conditions helped us to 64 caches today (only 3 DNFs and a couple of drive pasts) through Dorrigo, Deer Vale and Bald Hills. It helps when the caches around these parts are obviously very well prepared and maintained.
This was a cool hide, a variation on a standard, that we hadn't seen before - good stuff.... TFTC (FP added)

We stopped here for a short while and looked for the nano. Found it sooner than thought about it at 4:55 p. m.
Think the show would be interesting to see.

Took a moment or two then found the clever variation of a theme. Liked it so gave it a fav. Thanks groovydoo
Had to park Mitsi discretely to avoid muggle kids in the park opposite seeing what we were doing.. Sneaky little blighter. TFTC groovydoo
After finding a similar hide today, this was a quick find. Lovely sunset. TFTC groovydoo.
Another cache in the Dorrigo area. The cache was quickly located, log signed and replaced and we on our way to the next cache.

Find No: 5371. Visiting from Newcastle, staying in Woolgoolga, yukky day so thought we'd head for the hills, had a great day, great picnic lunch and 30 caches in total, thanks for the cache groovydoo!!
Like your style Groovydoo. This cache is being awarded another favourite point today. We liked it very much. Thanks for adding to the enjoyment we experienced today by placing some great caches around the area. Unfortunately we gave it a miss after our next find as the rain got too heavy and was too miserable. So we'll have more of yours to do next time we come up to Dorrigo. Thanks and Happy New Year [^][^]
We almost gave up on this one after a decent amount of time but one of the past logs helped make something click in my mind and I managed to make the find. Sneaky hide, loved it! TFTC!
Thank you for bringing us to this beautiful area on our 3 day trip to Dorrigo & surrounds. TYFC
This is our 2nd Day. We are enjoying Today even more than Yesterday.

I had a good look for this, in the rain of course, but missed it. After finding several others around town, I returned for a better look, and at last saw it, but so easy to miss. Thanks to groovydo for an excellent hide, quite simple but very effective.
Searched for a while but kept thinking it has to be here, then a magic touch and wow, love it. It gets a fav point from me. TFTC
Found on a day caching with MossAU Possum 202 & NSW Lone Rovers. Log is nearly full.

Well done, love this size cache.

Easy find - why didn't I find this last time?? The Pony Club mums were loud on the other side of the fence and thankfully they didn't notice me as I made the quick grab TFTC
This one was found by muggle mate N, a really good hide, fav from me, TFTC groovydoo.
After spending an enjoyable afternoon in Dorrigo meeting groovydoo we had a few more caches to find before heading back to Coffs Harbour. The cache was easily found and we were soon in the car heading to the next cache. Thank you for having placed the cache groovydoo.
Another quick find of a similiar nature to the others in Dorrigo. We're enjoying our day caching in Dorrigo! TFTC [8)]
Nice easy find (only because I've seen similar ones before). Thanks for the history.
It was raining so hard when we arrived at this cache yesterday so we stopped to find it as we left town.
Have seen a cache very similar to this just recently so it was easily found.
Thanks groovydoo

No Chop, Chop, Chop today
Lots of Cip, Clip, Clop instead
Today there was a junior's dressage competition on the arena.
And I had a ring side seat for the action as I poked around for a cache
Dressage is not the most exciting spectator sport though so there wasn't much stopping me looking for the cache.
Oh wait !! There's been a fall [:o]
All Ok !! Young Miss 12 bounced on all the woodchips and got a round of applause as she hopped back on her horse
After the short distraction I suddenly spied the cache [:o]
I must have been inspired too !!

Found at 2:44 PM GAFF1. We were concerned that this was going to be a bit of a problem cache after speaking to the CO earlier on, however a nicely camoed cache was found soon after unbolting a bolt [:o)], with a log sheet in it [^]
Thanks groovydoo.
