Sorry about the lack of maintenance on this cache, I have been out of the country for a while and have only recently got back. I will replace the cache asap but for the moment I will archive it
I noticed that this cache has been in need of owner attention for a period of time well in excess of the period of "a few weeks" as contemplated by the cache guidelines published on Geocaching.com. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other caches from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it (using the archive listing link in the upper right) so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location.
If you plan on repairing this cache, please log a note to the cache (not email) within the next 30 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication.

This hasn't been found since the beginning of the year. (Thinking that one find in the middle was a mistake log). This needs to go. CO needs to investigate or archive.

I really enjoy spending time in New Zealand, I just love it here. Its nature, people and adventures I am passing through. Awesome place, thank you very much for introducing to myself and for the cache itself 
Sorry for late logging, I have some problems with internet access during travelling.
Sorry for late logging, I have some problems with internet access during travelling.A quick, easy find as we checked out the Terns perching on the wharf. TFTC.
In Timaru for a wee family weekend getaway. Quick find at night whilst checking out the little blue penguins. Cheers.
Found our First one yes let the game begin very easy,You see it before you get to it
Found while out on a date night 
Snuck down the street past a car full of muggles. I kept watch while partner went and sneakily found it in the dark. Reasonably easy find. Thanks heaps.

Thanks for the cache.
Love the brotherhood of Scouting and it was cool to run into a leader here who invited us in to look around. TFTC
While looking for little penguins we managed to log this cache. Thanks for it and greetings from Germany!
A very pleasant find. The title had me trying to read too much into it. Was it lose or loose?? Still not sure. A goodie. Thanks.
Staying in Timaru for the week while working at Clandeboye. The third cache of the night. The title made this a quick find, but there were a few muggles around that had to be worked around. TFTC
Miss Adventure found this one. The title kinda helped! 
She was very pleased with herself as it was her third find for the day. Beautiful morning in Timaru, but only on an overnight trip so we'll have to come back, so many caches to do....

Beautiful morning in Timaru, but only on an overnight trip so we'll have to come back, so many caches to do....We found this one on a great trip to NZ. We had to walk around some before loiking as a muggle pair were unloading boating supplies. Found quick and took a picture!
Great day out caching, one of many found, foggy start, but soon came out hot. - Bitsprayer
No idea why no muggles were around, it was a quick find in the obvious spot (despite the coordinates being out 10 meter).
Yes a bit of stealth required but we got it without any problem. Our GPS was 10m out but looked in the most obvious place first and there it was.
Starting to get busy around GZ, so a nice quick find was called for. This I did, then off to the next. Had a weekend in Timaru, so did a bit of caching in around the town. Thanks for the hide.
A reasonably early morning raid and a quick find. Good to a new cache in Timaru. Minus TB
