Came for an inspection after medical appointments nearby.
A bit of prior research gave me a good idea where to look.
On arrival at GZ, there were many muggles but the light rain was hurrying them toward their destinations.
My research turned out to be totally wrong, lol. But I soon found the sneaky hide.
(I also saw a glimpse of the original cache too, but i couldn't retrieved it.)
Thanks, Izzi_Bizzi, for an enjoyable challenge. It still works fine despite being 'disabled' through circumstances.

We are keen geocachers on holiday from New Zealand grabbing a few smileys as we go. Quite surprised to find this cache has been disabled. It is within 5m of the GZ and after engaging our geocaching brains, easily found. It is well placed and safe. We signed the log and returned it carefully. All good. TFTC
This is a funny story this one.
Day 1 the bananas were there looking when the coordinates said look on the road.
We officially found it the next day.
This it slipped.
A new one was added.
But in all the time only a very few have signed the original as it has always remained on site. Just hats to get to.
And now with two treasures in the one location, it is being disabled.
The bananas have always been watching this one and every time we pass we look again.
But now
We shall look no more.
Thanks for the enjoyment of this treasure.

I'm afraid I have to deactivate the cache for a while. I'm overseas and can't replace to box. So as long as I can't replace it, it won't be active anymore. Sad... so sad...
Finally found it. Not as easy as everyone said. I didn't push too hard so easier for the next person.
Found with vj187 while holidaying in Melbourne. It was a challenge to get as it has been pushed too far. TFTC
In my attempt to complete P366 this year, I came up against one huge hurdle. A period of time in which I needed to find a cache on 7 days in the space of 10 days. Without my Ps at this time, it was a tough ask. Through my trips to uni and various 10pm trips with mum I managed to complete this, while trying to juggle many other commitments at the same time. Hoping I don't have to come up against this again this year! This was the 1st of 7 days required in this period.
Tonight I was performing at a concert with the Grainger Wind Symphony just around the corner from here, so I made sure that on the way home I got this one. A nice quick find once at GZ. I hope I didn't push it too far down afterwards - but I see it has since been found so I'm presuming I'll be right!
Thanks Izzi_Bizzi!

Ground bailed out of the car to make the grab on this one. Thanks for placing.
Found it without my pen.
Lovely street and there are people watering the plants on the street

On the road again ....
8 caches were found in my expedition tonight and this really clever little hide was my first. Stood around looking a bit sheepish at GZ for a while, but then tried the old "stand back a bit and look for something outta place" routine. Thankfully it worked a treat, and the cache ... which is missing a lid, was discovered, signed and then replaced exactly as discovered.
Many thanks to Izzi Bizzi for placing this geocache.

Spent a bit of spare time caching today whilst wife was attending medical appointments ~ and made sure the 'push' was just right ~ TFTC
In at the 'G for the cricket and we parked just up the hill. Grabbed this one on our way to the ground. Success and Joy at the find; less so at the cricket as the Aussies got spanked by India.
The spot seemed obvious when something different was at GZ. However there may have been some wedging done by muggles or others before.
Still no lid and temporary logs inside, so we can confirm the previous comment that this requires maintenance.

Through some stalking by my good caching buddy SirJ-Oz, I have discovered I have preformed a most heinous caching faux pas!! I have forgotten to log some caches that I found ages ago.... I found this cache nearly a year ago on a very pleasant afternoon of caching and paddling with SirJ-Oz and since then I have had a number of caching milestones that I really don't want to bump out of order by logging this find with it's true date of the 31/3/2015, so I am logging it today....
Thanks for the cache Izzi Bizzi, and many many apologies for this logging mess.

TFTC Izzi_Bizzi. A nice easy find on a terrific Melbourne day. Sprung by 2 geocachers including ArchieB1 who we were delighted to chat with about caching and life in general. Great meeting you B1! Jimmytherat with Noelle04.
Thanks izzie bizzi found with Jimmytherat 0n way to Richmond Station heading to Black Rock. No Muggle trouble but a plethora of cachers! Ran into Archie B1, had a nice chat & another couple who waved from afar. Nice little cache in a perfect spot for a Rat. Think drain pipe!
This is my first geocache in Australia. Thank you. AniaNiepo from Warsaw, Poland
I thought I was going to have trouble with this one as there was a customer in the laundrette but I needn't have worried as I was out of sight of him. I sttod at GZ and looked around then spotted the something that looked a little out of place. It was jammed on a little but I soon had it off and luckily it reavealed the cache

On vacation from cold to warm. A great travel and a lot of caches. Greetings from Finland! TFTC
Log book nearly full and container needs replacing as the lid is gone. Sill got its cammo.
Had to go watch Robbie Williams tonight (tough life) so we meet at the London Tavern for tea first. Lucky me a cache close by! A quick grab with my muggle friend. Thanks for the cache
Playing in a concert just up the road with the fabulous Orchestra 21 and snuck away to find this cache. A bit tricky to replace with the London tavern just across the road. Tftc
Another melbourne an other attempt at this cash. Finally found it, cant believe we didn't check there the first time.
Tftc. However, some maintenance is needed. The container is still without a lid and the temporary log is filling up.
Not sure if we found it? Found an empty small container near GZ but no way of telling if cache or discarded rubbish?
No lid and no log in the container but the cache is still in place. I added a small piece of paper as a temporary log but this will need some love sooner rather than later. Had to do my best casual nonchalance at GZ so that the two security guards standing on the opposite corner didn't feel the need to investigate more closely. Luckily I located the hiding spot quickly. Thanks for the cache.
Awesome find. Came looking for this one once before with no luck, but this time came up with the goods. TFTC!
First one of these that I have encountered so it took a quick daytime recce as well as a night time hunt. In the end it took just a little bit of focus and something odd confirmed my suspicions. Great hide, tftc.
found it! am an idiot though and didn't bring a pen, put a bobby pin in to show I was there lol
Geochild and GeoDad had some spare time while Geomum went shopping. Geochild likes the Tigers so he wanted to go caching in Richmond. So we went. And found this cache. TFTC
Solved it with my chip.. People were a bit suspicious and thought we lost something. we had to wait until the coast is clear to finally solved it.. Now we're super jumpy to return the log.. Hahaha
Sneaky suspicion of where it was when close to GZ. Little tug here and there and revealed the cache!!!! TFTC!
Quick little hunt after dinner on swan St rewarded me with my 3rd find. Sadly no pen to sign.
Great little hide in the middle of this bustling suburb.
A quick find - thanks for bringing me here!

Happy 15 Years of Geocaching Anniversary Weekend! Found at 8:44 PM during my weekend visit to Melbourne. I had a workshop down the road and arrived early, so I went for a wander to try and pick up the closest cache and qualify for the digital souvenir to celebrate the special anniversary. Once at Ground Zero, I waited for a few muggles to vacate the area before pouncing on the suspected hiding location. Once the coast was clear, it was an instant find and I soon had the Cache In Hand. I performed the signing duties and returned the cache to its position. Signed Log, Took Nothing Left Nothing. Thanks For The Cache Izzi Bizzi, now I am ready for an action packed day full of fun and learning!
Good news - found fast (just after last finder ). Great hide.
Good news: replaced log. Room for 460 finds - plenty.
Bad news: lid to cache broke. But should be ok. Bought a pen and sandwich bags from nice lady at milk bar nearby. Might need a new container someday but this one will last till CO back from overseas travels.
Well done on this cache - great hide and Neighborhood!
Ps: Go the Tigers .

I found this cache today at 1:35pm as number 7 of 13 on my Melbourne Gardens Wander. Wandered away from my intended path to explore a few Richmond byways on the way in and away from this cache. A beautiful afternoon for a walk. Thanks from D B-A.
Find #1812. Found @ 17:57 with LouiseAnn.
After we'd finished our kayaking adventure on the Yarra, we decided to grab a couple more in the area.
LouiseAnn made the insta-find, which was great because there is a surprising amount of muggles activity in the area.
After our find we ventured across the road for a cold and frothy beverage before attempting a few more.
Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables.

Hey everyone,
I'm so happy you keep finding my little Baby, my first and only Geocache so far.
I'm overseas at the moment and won't be back for a year so can't put a new logbook in. If anyone could bring one that would be great! It's just a small tin so don't need to be a big one.
Thanks so much!

I saw straight away what wasn't there, but it took me a little while to twig as to what was there. Log full so I didn't bother squeezing a signature in there. TFTC
I was down in the big smoke today having my final heart test at nearby Epworth, and after getting poked and prodded for the last time for 12 months, I made my way down to this one on foot as it is our closest unfound cache to the hospital, (we have been to Epworth a fair bit in the last 18 months)
Upon arriving at the co-ords, a quick scope of the situation revealed a young lass had parked herself right next to GZ having a smoke and staring at her phone (and NOT in a caching way!)
So I thought I would wait her out...........well, THAT didn't work so I decided to go back to the hospital and get my car and come back in the hope she had gone.
And she had, Yay!
So, round 2 and Ta-Daa! I had the cache in hand and signed the quite full log sheet.
Now off to a lunch date with sharkiefan over at Fitzroy.
Thanks for the cache Izzi_Bizzi, I liked all the old architecture around here.
Cheers

All this week i have been riding home late at night and collecting a cache or two along the way. Other than its harder to search at this time of night. I am loving it. No one around to bust me and no traffic on the road. Makes for quick finds. Cheers
