TFTC. This is only our 4th. So starting to get a better idea what we are looking for.
We saw this series of near where we were and wondered about some of the ratings. We started at number 2 first which was a quick find and worked our way around to 3, then 4 before having to wait out a muggle dog walker at 1 and then finishing off at the bowling club or number 5. A few quick finds and few that took awhile. TFTC.
This was a great cache but the gps was pointing randomly, until it started to work. Added a new small piece of paper to cache as logbook was full, it could probably fit another name.

In checking the obvious structure, the hut for magnetic hideways was on. Found it in a cleverly located spot. Love nano's. TFTC! LOg book very full.
Quick grab after enjoying the previous cache and walk. The bowlers were enjoying their game. TFTC
I was winding my way through the suburbs heading for Aquinas College to watch the Festival of Cricket, and stopped to pick up a few easy caches. This was the first of the day, and was found in a relattively simple location. TFTC Manning Mob
A quick and easy find here in the first place I looked. I took the cache around the corner to sign the log. Thanks for the cache Manning Mob!
Darn, I didn't find anything. Walked around the bowling place twice, still no luck... If anyone wants to Caching with me... I'll find it eventually
Thought I would focus my hunt around picking up some puzzle caches that had been sitting in the solved pile for a while. Headed northwards and started the day here in Manning. A last quick quick find here. Thanks Manning Mob
I thought this was going to be a problem as busy spot and my GZ put me out in the open. But fortunately it was in the first place I looked. Don't know if I would have tried if the bowlers were out. TFTC.
Jinta29 and I were heading NOR today for an event so decided to fill some time with some caches on the way.
Parked near GZ and made the quick grab here.
Signed log and we were on our way

Kyzabra and I were heading to his event NOR and stopped by this area to grab a few smileys. This was a nice easy find and we were soon on our way. TFTC Manning Mob
I was in the area trying to find a way into a recently solved puzzle cache. I hit a dead end in that regard so decided to see if I could track down some local hides.
Searched around here for about 5 minutes before I found it where I wasn't expecting it to be. Nice hide.

Found on an early morning ride. Didn't take long to find it, which is how I like caches to be. Took longer to get log out and back in again than it did to find it. Thanks for the cache.
[:(!] Went for a morning caching run before church and this was one of them, parked the geoGrand Vitara as close as possible to GZ and walked in from there, on arrival at GZ the cache was in hand in a matter of several minutes.

I got the opportunity to explore Salter Point this morning so I took the bike out for a ride around the neighbourhood and picked up some caches along the way. This was cache number 13. Nice easy one to finish. Tftc Manning Mob
We had a few hours free this morning so headed off to do a spot of caching in the Manning area.
Unfortunately, we had only completed a few when Mr ILT discovered he was minus his wallet.
We backtracked in case he had dropped it, but headed home when we didn't find it, where we found it on the kitchen table. A quick end to the trip.
We found your cache and had some fun, thanks Manning Mob

Out for a caching run along the river, to Manning & South Perth.
We visited a lot of lovely parks, with a good variety of cache hides.
Headed back to the caravan, when the day warmed up.
Thanks for the cache, Manning Mob.

Nice one. Many quizzical looks from senior Muggles playing nearby. Someone left a pen in the vicinity for those who forget.
I saw these series pop up a few weeks back and finally got over this way to search them out. The bowling club was in full swing, so luckily I was able to discreetly locate and replace cache.
Thanks Manning Mob.
Thanks Manning Mob.
This little series popped up in our back yard (so to speak) while we were away from Perth. Having recently returned we decided to try to remove these green splots from our sea of yellow smileys. Quick find here so didn't raise the interest of the bowling faternity.

Coordinates have been adjusted to BlaKids log. Please let us know if you have any problems with this batch.
Coordinates need to be corrected. Not everyone has access to the previous logs to know the correct ones.
Coordinates are well out and should be fixed. Eventually found the cache.
Thanks Manning Mob for the cache.
Thanks Manning Mob for the cache.
Co-ords well and truly out however a quick find of clever placement after using BlaKids numbers.
Accompanying K.B. as she neared her 5000th find. These nanos helped the tally. Thanks Manning Mob.
Checked the road signs and then checked the next nearest magnetic location and made a quick find. GPSr showed 17m at GZ. Thanks for the hide.
Found this with Blakids - coords were a bit out but we got it with help from some logs.
Using some clues gleaned from Barnzy's log, LouBla & I were able to make the find. I'll add my take on the coords with this log. They're not great, but they're better than the ones published - the cache is not on the roundabout nor on the traffic island - both places that we looked at last night. Maybe better coords could be got just by looking at Google satellite view. Always good to check this when putting caches in. Glad to have now found the cache. Thanks Manning Mob for the hide. We'll have to catch up some time as we're in the same suburb.
Had a look at this one before heading to one of the Aquinas caches. GZ for me wasn't near any metal stuctures to which a nano could be attached. Wasn't sure how far to away from my GZ. Now, at 10:30 pm with no one logging a find & cachers being active in the area suggests others are having problems with this one too. Look forward to finding it eventually. TFTH
FTF! Approx 730pm. Got the notifications for the rest of this mini series in Manning whilst out shopping at Carousel, dropped geo-wife at home then made my way to Manning to complete this mini-series, this was the last find, took me ages. GZ had me searching near the streetlight post, then kept expanding my search, ended up at the pump station and made a good find a significant distance from GZ, these co-ords are a long way off. Thanks MM
