Sorry fellow Geo goers but I have been too busy to be keeping up with my cache. Sorry for the inconvenience.
 
11-Jun-15
I was in this area today and noting the DNF's on this cache, one that I found last year, I checked out the hide and can confirm that the cache is gone.
Needs to be replaced or archived.
 
24-May-15
I think maybe being in an area with kids it has been picked up or something

24-Apr-15
Got on ground like a mechanic.. Couldn't see anything, hopefully try again another time
 
21-Apr-15
Had a good look around but couldn't find this one.
 
10-Apr-15
When I arrived, there was just one gentleman on a seat a little distance away, so I began my search. A short time later a family arrived, and single men in playgrounds is not recommended, so I headed off without a find. I did get a reasonable look but I couldn't find it in the time. My thanks to j.j.noodles for placing it.

08-Dec-14
Wish I had the grand kiddies with us for camo but luckily at that time of afternoon/
night we had the place to ourselves so with torch in hand a quick search and the deed was done. The verdict: the axle is a right off or should I say right off and gone! Thankfully the cache wasn't. TFTC
The little yellow car was a bit frightened of the big tractor so didn't stay to play.

It was a beautiful afternoon, but thankfully no muggles were using the park. At first we thought it had gone, but a bit of digging turned up the hide. Thanks for the cache.

Met up with ms-enchantress team for a fun arvo of caching on a glorious day!
I must admit I am not usually a fan of playground caches but thankfully and amazingly -seeing it was such a beautiful day - there were no munchkins at the playground.
Well ms-enchantress tells the story so well so the only thing I will add is a photo of GMelb after his unsuccessful attempt -rotfl!!

Supergirl & Turbo introduced to caching today... Easy to cache with these young geocachers in the playground as muggle traffic turn a blind eye Smile TFTC
 
22-May-14
Found this one last week but had forgotten to log.

Had my eye on this one for a couple of weeks but every time i drove past it was occupied by children playing. Playground was empty due to overcast and wet day so I went in for the find. Had a quick search and found the cache tucked away. thanks for the cache j.jnoodles
 
19-May-14
went to fix the rear axle, and i thing i found your problem; its missing and will have to be replaced, i think the motor might be missing as well, might have to get the timeing checked

Find #1102

Out for a night of caching with Stemicmitsar. We headed east for a change. I'd DNF'd here a few weeks ago because the cache had been muggled. Tonight however it was an easy find. Glad to have cleared this one of the map.
SL TFTC
 
10-Apr-14
Took a couple of good hard looks but my 7 year old scrounged around the bark..."Mum! Look!" And there it was. Thanks. Lots of fun!
 
30-Mar-14
A nice walk with grandson and our children. Surprisingly quiet today and very little muggle traffic.
The cache container was a little bit buried.

Had already stopped before I saw the DNF's. Didn't know what to expect but decided to give it a go anyway and to my delight the search was short. The first place I looked uncovered this sneaky hide. Cache is fit and well hidden. TNLNSL. TFTC. Kems
 
26-Mar-14
Did not find, had a few suspicious teenage muggles that looked rather confused when dad was crawling around on the ground. Not sure if it's still there due to the previous DNF's
 
16-Mar-14
Looked where I thought it would be based on the hint. Could not locate. Keen to know if I just need to look harder or if this has been muggled.
 
16-Mar-14
Today I thought I'd take a 20 minute drive down the freeway to grab some caches even though the weather was looking a bit dodgy. It ended up constantly raining and stopping so had to find things to shelter in including the car if it was close by enough.
Again probably due to the terrible weather no one in the park so I managed to get right in underneath, covered with bark and used the torch but still couldn't find anything. Probably just me looking badly which happens quite often.
Thanks for the cache, the hunt and the fun.

Found on our "Making Memories" Tour of mainland Australia.

Today we explored Pakenham and surrounds using geocaching as our guide.

Lucky for us no jnr muggles about. TFTC
 
14-Feb-14
Found @ 11:12pm, find # 2965.
After finding my targets for the night, I then headed over to Pakenham to find a few unfound caches on my list.
I had stopped by this one with biggles1024 previously but it wasn't to be found so I thought that I would try again, I went back to the same area as last time, the only difference was that this time there was a cache and it was found, log was signed and I was on my way.
thanks to j.j.noodles for placing this cache.
 
12-Jan-14
Found @09:10 #3415
Was passing by this morning and stop near by for doing some "other stuff" and notice that this cache was very close. It took longer then it should have to find it which turn out to be quite a simple hide. A satisfying find.Big Grin

Date: 12 January 2014
Time: 9:11am
Find # 3557
Streak: 165 days

I was in the area with my caching mate SedgwickDave. I had attempted this one once before but just as we arrived, some muggles also arrived so we did not search. This time, a vacant playground so after a bit of a search, dave made the find and also ended up covered in bark.

Thanks to j.j.noodles for the cache.

Looked as per the hint but couldn't find. May need checking.

@14:25. I was out caching with Sando33716 today and this was one of four DNFs for the day. Sando had found this one previously so we knew what we were looking for but unfortunately it eluded us today. It may need to be checked.
