My first DNF for the year!
I think we can assume this is missing now.
We shall return if the cache does.

How disappointing that I have to log a DNF in my first Australian cache attempt. Looked pretty thoroughly and got kind of dirty. TFTH
Today we were in need of a cache find to keep our “mini” streak alive, which I had started while on a work trip to Melbourne a few weeks ago, and this one looked to be a good candidate. So I took a little diversion, on my way to work, to give it a go.
Searched all over & under the "troll" type feature at GZ, but found nothing. Comments in the recent logs refer to possibly needing a new log and/or container, so I was unsure of the cache's current status. I would be surprised if I had missed seeing a "small" size container, but it has happened before, so will watch the logs to see what the next cachers find before revisiting.
TFTH anyway.

Great spot when dry 
Zip-lock bag and therefore the log book is pretty damp. I dried it from the inside, but the bag probably has a puncture somewhere.

After a previous FTF returned today with Dickcissel for support and found it easy enough. Happy to report the pink wrapped tampon is still in the cache 
A little detour for us to pick this one up. With nobody around, but maybe hundreds of eyes looking at us? we made a quick find.

#1903 (1 of 3 today)
Going to the Tah's semi final at the Football Stadium tonight (don't ask - didn't go well) and decided to grab a few caches first.
Found 3, DNFed 2 and DNAttempt another.
[center]END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION[/center]
And here was the DNAttempt.
So many muggles here today (both sitting and walking), and then one more sat right next to GZ as I approached. On walk past of the likely GZ I spotted a redback, so no sticking my hand in there.

Tried for this one briefly today but there were a few muggles around and I lost my nerve! Will have to look again another day.
Hopped on a bus down here after finding #60 Shipwreck Bay.
Interesting development of the site with nice green space, made the find quickly as there was no-one around to bother me

I had to wait for ages for muggles to move. Eventually shimmied under and SL in situ. TFTC.
Easy find with the hint. Good container with kiddy treasure and could be helpful in an emergency.

Out doing some caching in the area today. He wasn't out collecting tolls so I had to have a good look around. Soon located and signed the log. Something different for a container. TFTC gullighty
Easy find but the coordinates seem off.. They had us standing in the middle of the field. Luckily the 'troll' reference hinted us in the right direction.
Found while in the area, a quick find by Wazza9. Signed log didn't see the trackable. TFTC
TFTC,
The last time I was here I was in a hurry and didn't take the time to give this location a good search.
In the area after visiting a friend of Nana Nel's and decided to have a look.
Noticed a Cricket Bat at rest nearby in rememberance of the passing of Philip Hughes and knew that I had to find this cache today to show my respect.
Visited a group of trackables and am awarding a favorite in rememberance.

Found as the second of three this evening. I don't mind what they've done with the Prince Henry site but for the fact that the health system, for whom I work, didn't benefit maximally from it. Oh well, the strange ways of bureaucrats and politicians. The first time that I have seen a tampon left as a swap! Handy if you're caught short, I guess! Thanks for the cache!
After having an early start getting some guys going literally around the corner I wasn't going to leave the area without trying to get a cache a fair way outside my usual area. Luckily parking was easy and after a couple of looks in the likely spot I saw it and managed an easy grab. Even managed to squeeze in a skinny travel bug. Thanks gullightly.
Drove past, but a large group of muggles were sitting very close to GZ 
Will be back another day!
Will be back another day!Park & grab - well not quite, all the locals must park along this street and there were no close spots early on a Saturday morning. Cache was easy though.
Had a TB to drop off but it wouldn't fit in the container so just visited.
Continued down the road to the National Park where we saw the burial ground for the "Coast Hospital" infectious cases which was interesting and then walked to the end of the rock platform and saw lots of whales.

We just happened to pick an ideal time to attempt this one with nobody sitting in the vicinity, no joggers, strollers or dog-walkers and ony one family playing far away on the other side of the lawn. Mr Ozjeeper made a quick find - thanks Gullightly for providing a nearby seat on which to sit to fill in the log.
Found it on our way home... Heaps of rain last week so the log was a little bit wet 
Yebo, after descending the bus in la perouse, the path led me here where I found the little troll without getting wet, no water under the bridge...

I was over it today. And misspalot doesn't have the word 'no' in her vocabulary so caching we went!

2/02/14. 6:33 AM. Cache #1312. 1st of 6 caches found this morning while clearing out Randwick council, mostly new ones like this one. A good, muggle-free time to attempt this. Did a troll impersonation to get a better look at things and just as I'd spotted it, an auto sprinkler went off in my direction. Grabbed the cache, ran out of the stream to sign somewhere dry and then timed my returning of the cache. Took the TB to move on. On to Agistment Adjustment next. TFTC }:)
Thursday arvo too many people around but worked out where it should be. Today got a free run and found without a problem. Tftc
Back down under after 5 weeks overseas. Enjoyed the summer here and grabbed a couple of new caches around my home. In 2 geocoins TFTC!
First find to log as an account holder after a cooling swim at Little Bay on a stinking hot day. Great cache.
Wandering around Sydney on a do-nothing kind of weekend when a notice of another gullightly cache came in.
smigglepot found it in literally seconds.
We were hoping to drop in a few TB's but they were a little too 3-dimensional so left a left-over Christmas bon-bon gift.
TFTC and another FTF

A team-FTF with LR. This cache could be tricky if it's been raining.
Thanks for the cache and the scratchie, gullightly
