I tried this cache a few nights ago and even though it was dark then there were still muggles at GZ. Back today and found it after a fingertip search. I'd say that a muggle has been at the cache because I found it tucked away but pulled apart. I don't think a child would have left it so must have been a curious adult. I signed the log, returned the cache to it's natural state and put it back where I found it. TFTC
Out with OOH YEH caching up NOR today. This was our first cache for the day. Couldn't think of the dogs name until cache was found then had a oh yeah moment.

Out with skippy 46 to do some caching at whiteman park but we stopped to grab a couple on the way. Once we searched the correct object the cache was quickly spotted TFTC argent78
One muggle walking the dog! One muggle riding a bike! All clear! Go go go! What a great spot for the kids! Nice neat little hide! TFTC
This was my first magnet find. Delighted with the short space of time it took to find but gosh to ages to get the log sheet out. Lovely new park and my son just loved the new car. Thanks for the hide .
Got the chance to do a spot of caching this afternoon with usshfam. Perfect weather not too hot. After walking just over 1km got to GZ in no time at all the cache was found. Struggled for a while to get log sheet out but managed. Beautiful new park a have too for any young boys. Great car. Very good cache thanks.
I usualy avoid these areas like the plague, however, having just walked a little way, & there being no one within coo eee, I approached g.z. & glad to say spotted the cache pretty well straight away.TFTC.
After DNFing on this one in its previous location, although I knew what I was looking for, I was back today for a new look in a new spot. It was pretty late, and dark when I got here, so there was no one at the playground.
After checking out most other spots, I finally put my hands on the cache, woohoo! Thanks for the hide Argent78

Love this one was here a while ago the place was full of muggles, cased the place out thought I had found it. Came back today and got the place to ourselves. And bingo I was right. Great hide Tftc.
First to find this one in its new location, after having to log a DNF in its old home. I didnt have any logbook retrieval tools so took a photo instead. Whilst this cache is near a playground, I think the actual GZ is quite OK. TFTC

This cache has been moved from its original location due a pending renovation of the playground area it originally resided in.
The new location now places it adjacent to a playground, rather than on it.

Why oh why has this cache been replaced on or near playground equipment again after complaints about the location last time ?? there are plenty of suitable sites in a close proximity away from the playground :- trees, seats, signs and fences.
This cache is placed by kids, for kids, hence the close proximity to playgrounds.
There’s no obligation to search for this cache if one deems the location inappropriate, despite this new location falling into said category of "trees, seats, signs and fences."

In anticipation of the cache location being renovated, this cache will be unavailable until a new site has been found.
Was persuaded by the Better Half that I was better off doing some caching than doing the work I had planned to do today and that the car needed a run to make sure the repairs were OK so we came north of the river to pick up some of the newer caches in this area.
Found this cache after a bit of a search and a conversation with a muggle neighbour who wondered what we were doing. One of the reasons caches should not be on playground equipment. I only searched today as I had the better half with me.
Thanks Argent78 for the cache.

We too agree that caches should not be placed on playground equipment. The playground was empty today and as there were four of us we quickly searched the area and soon came up with the goods.
We are not very comfortable looking for caches on children's play equipment, but there was no one around today so made a quick find with richlink and got out again. Thanks Argent78.
Signed with rotten pen as no13 no the log. Brilliant. Very proud of that for our 400th.
After three consecutive DNFs, the geokids and I went to check on this cache and can confirm that it is indeed still unharmed and in its original location.
I know what I was looking for here and having found a similar cache in a similar setting South of the river (twin perhaps), I went straight for the same hiding place. Not there. Searched every other surface on the structure but no smiley.
On a hot afternoon, the playground was deserted, so I managed a good search. The hint confirmed what I was looking for, but despite crawling around and getting covered in sand, I didn't find the cache.
Grrr one of three DNF this afternoon. We knew exactly what we were looking for from the excellent clue (one of our kids' favourite films) but sadly failed to gain a smiley on this one despite almost dismantling the structure! Still, the geokids had fun in the park, joining in with another family's game of cricket whilst mum searched for the goodies. Hmm. We shall return!
Arriving at GZ a white ute was pulling away, he's back quickly and watching me in his mirror. Another cacher? I guess we'll never find out. I'll come back to this one.
I was sweaty when I arrived on my bike on a sunny Sunday and I soon turned into a human lamington. Thanks for the cache.
Popped in to Chez FELIX to say hi and for an advanced peek at their garage sale to snap up a
bargain or two !!
FELIX has to get their daily cache fix, so I was easily persuaded to head out and grab one, though it ended up being more like seven.
We were just discussing on route how there had not been many caches hidden in children's playgrounds
recently, and what do you know !!!
Anyway we were fortunate, the park was empty so were able to hunt un hindered.
TFTC.

After selling half the items that were to be in our Garage Sale to Thee Machman we had time to pop out and grab a cache to continue our GeoStreak.
Mr Felix found this one in a spot The Machman had already searched. No kiddies around today so we werent too put off searching, the boys were very glad that Mrs Felix was along to chaperone them. 2 muggles drinking up at the table near the street but they didn't pay us any attention.
We are not a fan of caches on playgrounds, but know there is a place for them, but like it when they are clearly labelled so that we can choose to attempt it or not without driving to it.

Like SpatialRig, I'm not a fan of playgrounds but I was in the area so went for a look. There were kids around and it's not a good look for a lone male cacher snooping around so I gave it a miss.
Another day with Mrs ML and our grandkids perhaps.

Woohoo *FTF* @ 6:20pm!
Saw this published just as I left work, so detoured on the way home for a find after a good 3 min hunt. Not a fan of caches on playground but luckily it was empty so was able to search in peace. TFTC.
