Missing for over 6 months, I don't know why I went to look for this one today. Grrr

I think we found the spot, but no cache. Could be under maintenance with the recent posts
Ran my hand around everyone of the nocturnal beasts and not just the obvious ones for about 10 minutes but could not find it. Does not mean it is not there, just need to return another time
Got an hour or so to kill in my old stomping ground while the wife checks out the shops - so I headed over here. Back in the day my little sister's first job was here - it was a Coles back then. Didn't have iron artwork back then .... may not have invented iron yet

Quick find as advertised. And as others have stated the logbook is full, but I don't need much space.
Thanks for placing this cache, AMNLL. Found in good condition.

*{Overall find #5263}* Have never been to this area before and enjoyed going from cache to cache looking around.
Another good find today.
LOG IS FULL TFTC
Another good find today.
LOG IS FULL TFTC
What a marvellous arcade - thank you for the delicate cache, most appreciated. ta.
By shear luck, found in first spot that Dan geogroped. Then realised the subtle hint in the cache description. TFTC
#3 with Trodectus. Arrived GZ and located cache after short search, neat hide. Log signed (very full with double signings) were we were able as TD & CB. Log replaced. TFTC
Found with Coybear2000. We had found a cache in the nearby park and decided to try for this one. We arrived at GZ and after a short search we had CIH. The log is full, but we found a space between a couple of previous logs and squeezed our marks in - TD&CB. Cache replaced and we headed back to the park for some multicultural lunch. TFTC
Quick easy find. Shame there was no room to wright our names on. Needs a new log. TFTC
#1008. After nightshift and with some days off and no caching for a week it was time for some more. Today Queanbeyan was on the radar
Might need a new log it's full! Enjoyed this one. Thanks

Team work got us a fast find on this one. Jdogmonkey had predicted the night dweller at GZ before we left our car and I managed to spot the cache in the blink of an eye. What a fun little spot. TFTC!
Had this one before we were even out of the car. Quick to find with NibletRiceCakes during our afternoon geocache.
#1709 A quick find among the art. Just managed to squeeze in my log, but is in desperate need of a new one. Thanks.
Bring a spare log (long thin piece of paper) as there is no more room to write and I didn't have any paper on me at the time. Excellent spot for a cache!
1:10pm 25/5 - the nearby Saigon Bakery does the best Vietnamese pork rolls. Haven't had them in a while so while chewing through one I checked the local caches and found this.
Getting the container was easy enough. The log is completely full however, so I've signed in some space next to a log from June 2015.
By the time I went to put it back, something was going on. By the time I was back at GZ, three police officers had followed me in. Their radios were squawking about something going on in the alley - rather than appear suspicious in front of the cops IN THE ALLEY, I kept walking through to the street. There were a few more on the street, and after listening for a bit, sounds like they were after a shoplifter who was on the lamb. The police were looking in all directions, so GZ was a no go zone.
Set off for another local cache while I waited for the heat to drop off. Eventually placed it back about 1:30pm, so apologies if anyone went looking during that time.
Thanks for cache and the unintentional adventure AMNLL.

This is NOT a good geocache for night time XD An unwell lit alley way with loads of creepy people walking through it... Shame I didn't find it before someone tried to talk me up...
I am a bit behind in my logs so I am playing catch up. Cache found as part of 4as1.
I turns out that this is Mummys 1000th cache. My little brother ran ahead and found this one really quickly

I found this one without any help and mum signed the log so i could put it back. It needs a new log book as we didnt have one to put back in but mum found a small spot for us to sign

Playing a little bit of catch up on my logs. Found as part of 4as1. Managed to find a tiny space to write our name but log needs replacing. I would normally replace but today was the one day I didn't have replacements. This could be a tricky find if you arrive at the wrong time
Wooot! Part of our daily cache grind.
(belated because I'm a slacker only just logging my haul of caches.)
Will need a new log.
(I use paper from officeworks - a4 ring bound pad of stonepaper = waterproof paper)
Thanks for this one. Found on the day with my family 4as1 team.
Thanks

TFTC. No pen, so photo evidence of cache & log. My last in Queanbeyan for the day
Wouldn't have walked down this arcade without the incentive of a cache to find. Pleasant little surprise to find this clever art installation. Log is full. TFTC.
Just put my eye up to the wall and scanned my way through. Must've looked quite a sight! Staying round the corner. Thanks.
Ah a town cache. muggles etc. still this was very good. Loved the clues and searching for this cache. TFTC
Been through here many times but never stopped to look for this cache. I found myself alone for a few seconds and was able to identify the container without difficulty. No time to get at the log, sadly (and I hadn't brought a pen) so no signature.
A nicely placed cache, the description helped cut down on the exposure time!
TFTC.

One of several caches picked up today with howjen567. Nice to tick this one off after a DNF several months ago. TFTC
Started our days caching with this one not far from the caravan park where we are staying. Reading the description sure helped here.
Thanks
Thanks
Pretty confident about what I was looking for and after a couple of false starts spotted it. Very quiet down here this afternoon. TFTC AMNLL
Great little cache in a busy spot. We had to time retrieval and replacement carefully. Nice one - TFTC
