No luck, I have noticed a lot of Didn't find logs, PLEASE CHECK CACHE, CO. Many thanks.
The ground underfoot was sodden today. We searched for quite a while here before having a lightbulb moment and working out the hint. Then there was really only one place the cache could be, however we could not find it. Could the CO please do a check and confirm whether we just needed to do a more thorough hunt or the cache has gone missing. Thanks.
Doesn't seem like there are many places this cache could be and yet neither AtomsNZ or I could find it.

[Located this one this evening. After a bit of scrambling around, it was eventually found!]
Out on a short road trip with tmann421 on Waitangi Weekend.
It was a quick find one we worked out the anagram.

After a long period of fruitless searching in the wrong spot, I read the hint again and went straight to the cache. TFTC
it was a scramble between teens and parents for this one and of course Mr +1 won

Lol. Looked right at it last visit and couldnt see the wood for the trees lol. Such a lot of action searching in the wrong place is evident lol
Found it with sidekick Aro. Boom the jedi strikes. Needs a bit of maintenance as bag a bit ripped. TFTC
Caching in paradise, a gorgeous spring day in the Manawatu.
Mmmm, one of those 'why am I doing this out in the open?', type aching experiences. OK, unnerving but straightforward.
Cache in order, log signed; safely re-hidden, just as found.
TFTC found with team cacher Sweet P too
The Turtle strikes again!

Again felt awkward retrieving this one however the formalities were duly completed. TFTC, #6916
Parked with the GPS saying 2m so hopped out of the car and searched what I thought was the likely places. Nope. Back to the car, check GPS - cache description and hint. Spend the next 5 minutes working out what the hint means, when it finally clicked I made a quick find. Thanks.
We been to this one before, but there was someone watching from the house across the road so we moved on.
Nice & quiet here today.
Spotted the cache as we drove up, as it was on the ground. Put it back where it should be.
An interesting log book - when's the draw?

TFTCA straightforward find today but as I went back to the car to sign the log I looked back to see a nearby resident watching me. She lost interest in me and I was able to slip the cache back while she wasn't looking. I liked the hint - something a bit different.

First one for today - filling in time before kart racing starts at manfield. We found the container on the ground so placed back where we think it should be. CO might want to check on it? Tftc
Out and about today, caching with tmann421. We did a circuit from Palmy. It was great to find a variety of hides in the Manawatu (even a few under braces!)
Thanks for the cache nigelwilson

[green] Out with a friend of mine on a blackberrying trip. Too early, so instant plans to redo in two weeks. But that gave me a great idea for a new cache, now all written up, so tomorrow hopefully I'll have a container in place, and it will be ready for the panic cachers by the weekend. Which is off topic really. This cache. As soon as I saw the description as an eclipse mint I figured that all the places I was looking were no longer sensile, and only one place was likely. Yup! It was after I put it back I saw there was an anagram...
We initially looked in the wrong place, but after decoding the hint, StreetWalker had soon "de-anagrammed" it. TFTC.
#7079. I don't think we'd been to this part of Feilding before. All quiet here today (apart from the noise from Manfield in the distance). TFTC.
After the wind and rain of Tuesday 21 st the 22nd of January was fine and clear. Jono S and I had decided that we needed a day in Feilding to start finding all the new caches and would need an early start.
I picked him up before 8 am and we were off on our day geocaching following a worked out route that tried to avoid doubling back.
We found 19 caches so of which were straight forward and others more of a challenge and took a bit of time. We didnt find three.
Straight forward find loved the anagram which either of the two words could fit. TFTC

Today was a Feilding Geocache Day! An early start in the company of MJMNZ we set off to “knock off” some of the many new caches appearing in and around Feilding; mostly with success!
A great find after we had debated the anagram. A quad biker arrived as we were leaving.

Quite a pleasant side of town this. We walked across the river, as we have done before walking the dog. Found the cache no problems and kids provided a distraction by being even louder than usual on the way back down the road! TFTC Only clicked after finding 2 caches this evening, it was our wedding anniversary today. 
Ah well, life after children, never the same.
Ah well, life after children, never the same.Went looking at midnight last night when Helbaby7 told me she got first to find, was looking in the wrong place, so after consulting Google I have figured it out, just gone back and bingo there it was looking at me the whole time. TFTC
**FTF** Just finished logging todays finds and setting up new notifications. One last look at the feilding map then hopped into bed....of course as soon as i was in bed this one pops up. SO a quick drive down the road and found at 10.52pm. Nice easy find even in the dark. TFTC
