Prickly Bush (Canterbury) Christchurch, South Island, New Zealand
By theroamingreliever on 19-Sep-13. Waypoint GC4NN1D

Looks like this has gone missing. Was good while it lasted being a simple cache that the children had placed. Will not replace, as will let some other children in the future have the ability to place one around there if no has done so before hand.

?? Can you confirm this is still in situ please.

Searched 4 prickly bushes at GZ. No go

Checked all likely bushes and nothing. Think this needs checking.

No luck here today will watch. cheers.

GPS took us to a prickly bush but no presents underneath. Neighbours had clear view of us from windows. Will keep an eye on this one.

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

Thank you for the cache. A nice easy find in our neighbourhood. We sharpened the pencil for you

Found it !! Enjoying a fab walk . Thanks discovery 1 school

A nice quick find to end my cache outing for the day..TFTC

Tftc was out in the open so hid a little better. Great to see young kids getting involved

Thanks for the quick find. Day 80 of our continuous streak - with the days drawing in it is getting harder and harder to achieve this!!

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

TFTC. I am attempting to cache for 100 days in a row while also managing 250 caches per month total in my stats. So far I am at 34/100 and 246/250 for this month. Time will tell!!
Anyway back to the cache - a lovely location and well placed cache.
I could hardly complete the nearby cache and ignore a "Prickly Bush" strolled a little further and located said bush and cache.
I left an Auckland Mega pathtag for those who like them.
Thanks theroamingretriever for placing the cache.

Second for the day whilst out riding TFTC

Quick and easy find. Very quiet evening. TFTC

No so prickly if you approach right!

cool cache

An easy find thanks to the helpful clue. TFTC - well done

TFTC

Found it in a roundabout way with Fitchy and Wii P. ie. ended up with grubby feet and legs. Wouldn't be so bad but heading to podiatrist after these few local caches!

Completely off track as we were looking in a marshy spot until Mr Fitch came back to tell us we were looking in the wrong spot quick and easy find TFTC

What could be better on a very warm Christmas Eve but caching? Love the area. TFTC

Not too prickly and I managed to retrieve without too much pain. TFTC.

A very easy find, which was good because there are many watching windows. Took trackable. Thanks for the cache.

Found it, nice new park, dropped off Tb.

"Easy peasy prickly squeezy" - Geo-Kid loved this one! TFTC

Nice quick find. TFTC.

I'm certain I've found a cache very near here before - I'll have to search my records. Easy find. Cache 24 of 51 for the day. Thanks and cheers from Grandalf(2247)

Thanks for the cache
Will move the track able on shortly

Lovely spot on a beautiful dau. Tftc

Found whilst on a cyclocache ride to find caches on and adjacent to the Southern Motorway cycleway. Nice quick find in a lovely, freshly mown area, as I made my way back towards Hillmorton , where I had parked the cachemobile. TFTC.

Stopped by when fortunately, no one was peering out their windows. Cheers theroamingreliever!

A nice afternoon for a walk. A quick find. Left GC. TFTC.

A nice spot for a cache early Saturday morning, lovely day - blue sky - love Spring

TFTC

Quick find.

Nice little walk in an area that has developed so quickly . TFTC

A bit of drizzle so no muggles to worry about today, a nice quick one as it was getting wet out. Thanks.

5776. Rodney had completed all his tasks for the morning so left early for his Monday afternoon voluntary work so he could do a few caches in the Halswell area. Both GPS receivers had flat batteries but he decided to carry on anyway, relying on his memory of the Google map. He managed seven finds in 90 minutes, with no DNFs!!! This was the third one. No muggles around today. Thanks for the nice and easy cache. Keep up the good work! Iris and Rodney.

Followed Sallies today, no muggles for us as well. Quick find, TFTC

Yay. Thanks to your cache I can continue with the 53 days in a row challenge. I have found at least a cache a day since September 20.

Nice find as the sun was going down. Great to see geoyounglings being taught this great game. Thanks for hiding these caches

Quick find without any prickles tftc

Found with Sevren.tftc

Glad we did this one at night as would have been a little open during the day. Easy find as not that well hid but did cover a little better when replaced TFTC

Tenth find of 16 on a fine warm afternoon with two members of AAMOFIDOTR and LittleDevil09

Had put this one off for a couple of weeks as 'Prickly Bush@ doesn't really excite me. Went to GZ and found easily and didn't get prickled so pretty rapt about that. TFTC.

The bush wasnt that prickly considering others that i have had intimate encounters with(gorse,matagouri).
Easy find.
TFTC

Quick easy find. Yet another hide and find in a subdivision of mine. Thanks for the hide.

Found on an evening walk with Ms KR. Could be very overlooked if you picked the wrong day to search. Thanks for the hide.

TFTC!

We had to be stealthy as Two Home Owners were working in their back Gardens.Don't think they noticed us lurking at the back of the Prickly Bush.TFTH

A quick cache grab before heading home to get ready for dinner and a band. Tftc

A special find for us. We had a very pleasant walk in the sun, the GPS coordinates were very accurate and the little cache was very well presented. Must be party time with all those balloons. Thank you for the fun!!

I was biking past and noticed this one pop up on GPS, it was a quick drop bike and grab.
I will try and get back and get the others tomorrow.
Cheers and thanks,
S.t.

Out and about on a drizzley evenings adventure with TW. After finding the nearby cache we continued on a wee walk to this one. A quick find and sign between the rain showers. Cheers. Caches in the area are mushrooming along with the houses. Cheers.

Team Gaters and having just come from a successful FTF mission were coming this way to mop up the batch of recently published caches on our side of town. We walked to this one after successfully finding the one up the way a bit. We had a lull in the rain and made it to GZ nice and dry. The cache was found quickly and we headed back to the truck to go and find the other recently published caches in the area. This area is mushrooming like crazy.
Thanks for the cache.

Nice easy find after the rain. TFTH

I was at work, and had just had a meeting till 4pm. Then while I was packing up my stuff and about to leave home, got caught up talking to one of the guys at work. Chatted for a bit, and then said our goodbyes and I left back to my desk.
Arrived to the phone flashing - 4.26PM it was. And new cache at 4.24PM?? I could do it!!
Quickly grabbed my bag and raced out to my car!!

Then started driving, attempting to avoid traffic - but I think I only made it worse for myself! I was freaking out that thewanglers or twosharpe would be closer and get this one!

Arrived eventually at the GZ, where I carried out a terrible park, and ditched the car running!!

Got to an empty GZ - had they all been and gone already?
Soon I spied the cache - that looked unfound - and much to my luck and surprise, it was!! Oh yeah!!!

FTF!!! FTF!!! FTF!!! YUSSS Hehe.

And consec caching day # 320 too!

TFTC!!
