Been & found this cache in the past. Walking dogs tonight and thought I'll have a look to see if still there... I think this great cache has been Muggled ... Not found at usual place.
We also need power, it was too hot, too humid, too many people around, too many scratches - well, excuses are easy to find. We will be back!
I guess mine is the second DNF log! I must admit I only had a few seconds to locate this hide before I needed to be elsewhere. I cursory search didn't turn up anything so off I went. I'll be back with more time to search!
Found it last night with the kids while waiting for Chinese Take Away. Cool Hide. TFTC.
Judging by past logs, I came at a really good time. 7am on the day that daylight savings begins, so 6am for those who haven't adjusted yet. GZ was deserted. I walked around in circles for a bit but didn't see anything so had a look at the phone which told me "over there a bit". And there it was. Nicely positioned. TFTC kirby24706
I thought that, in the early afternoon on a Sunday, it would be quiet here and allow me to execute this one in peace. However, it was muggle city. I managed to wade in and grab the cache without drawing too much attention to myself and took it to the car to sign the log. Returning it was another matter. While I was in the car, two vehicles parked right next to GZ and the drivers got out and had a lengthy chat. Thankfully, they eventually drove off and I was able to return the cache.
I replaced it where I found it, which wasn’t that close to the tree, so it may have crept a bit.
Interesting “camo”, thanks for the cache kirby24706.

A really nifty little hide.
Found with Geoquert4 as we bombed around the place on a day off, geocaching.
Thanks for the cache.

Found it early this morning before many cars were parked. Still had to be a bit careful not to be noticed.
A bit of rummaging found what I was looking for. Very good hide! TFTC!

This cache enlightened our day as we searched for it and powered us on to better illumination of the subject. TFTC, kirby24706.Oh no! Looks like I am the first to log a DNF for this cache. I did manage to bush bash all the way in to the tree in question, had a very quick look but then decided to bush bash my way all the way out again. Because I thought someone may have seen me - possibly someone working in the numerous nearby shops, one of the customers, someone in the nearby parking lot or other passer-by - and I didn't want to compromise the secrecy of the cache. I might have to come back here in the dead of night with my best bush-survival suit on. TFTH!
Finding the cache unnoticed at midday on a weekend can be tough, especially with those shops right there! Found with Geoscoutdan. We forgot to bring any writing equipment, so we uploaded a photo in his log as evidence of our find

TFTCVery unique but simple cache. Found with geoleo6. Didnt have a pen so took a photo for proof. TFTC
Seems like this has been a busy cache today AB seems to have visited not long before me. How could I not pick it up, other than driving past twice a day, today I had to stop at my doctors 10m away! Tftc

Came past today after work for a quick cache find hopefully. Parked and walked over and then read the cache notes. Oh, go in there? OK, so I bush bashed and made the long trek to the tree. Then I searched and saw something out of place. BAM, Gotcha. Nice camo! SL and replaced. TFTC.

Geocache #470.
Found on Tuesday, 13th August 2013 at 9:32 PM.
Conditions: clear.
Current streak #13 days.
My 369th find for The Great Scouts Australia Geocaching Competition 2013.
Day thirteen of the 31 Days of Geocaching in the month of August and I headed out to claim another daily souvenir to keep #31in31 streak alive.
I missed out on the FTF here the other week (bumped into Yurt who was placing the cache back at the time) so decided to return on a day where I needed to make a quick find. Also met Nanny and Bo who turned up while Yurt and I were chatting. Today, Starstrider and I went for a drive up the road to grab this one, TFTC kirby24706.

Excellent - something I can reach for a change.
A couple came up and looked at the monuments while Iwas hiding in the bush and I thought they were going to come over and start looking near me but no, they wandered off.
Liked the camo! SL and replaced cache then went back to the car to contemplate the best way to my next appointment. A car slowed down right near GZ and I could see the driver looking over then he parked. I wondered if it was another cacher so I waited. I knew he could see me in my car facing GZ and so I waited and waited and.... well time ran out and I had to leave. I see butcherbird91 has been there today, maybe it was him.

Was about to head out for a find today to keep the streak alive when this was published. Only about 15-20 minutes away - good. Headed to an area I knew reasonably well so didn't use the GPSr and after one circuit I spotted something. Didn't want to look too suss so I removed it to work on opening. I opened the log to find I was already 2TF a mere 25 minutes after publishing! I thought someone might be here quickly but at least I expected to find them still there when I arrived! I signed and replaced and just as I was emerging a familiar face appeared in JordsAU. We talked for a while then another familiar pair appeared in Nanny and Bo. It was good to catch up and chat.
Thanks!

We were already rolling when the alert for this so grabbed the co-ords and plugged them into the Tom Tom and detoured over. We parked just near GZ but the phone had us all over the place so we read the cache page, put the phone away and walked over to the likely spot. Soon spotted the likely hide and had cache in hand shortly afterwards. We completed the signing duties as **FTF** about 15min after publishing and re hid. Unfortunately no time today to hang around for the other FTF hounds so back into the car and just made the next appointment on time. TFTC

7/08/13. 5:10 PM. Cache #813. Current streak: 332 days. Yay the days are getting a little longer, enough for a post-work park and grab. Accurate coords and very easy to spot; the hardest part of this one was trying to be discreet in a muggly area. TFTC }:)
