Just a lot of rubbish and beer bottles. Could not find the case. A bit dismayed by all the litter
Found a place it could likely be according to the hint, but alas no find today.
Out with amaali today to find a few caches and this was our first one and we were beaten.We looked everywhere.

Out with my old mate Greytiger chasing a few caches. Alas after a prolonged search we failed. The log book cabinet was open so we even checked that, on to the next one.
I couldn't find this one unfortunately. The only reason to come this way is for the cache, so not the ideal place to hide.
Went out for caching with pwala today
Weather was great.
Found it.
Thanks Pa_i_ge maaddii.otoole

It's tricky to pretend to have a good reason for creeping around between bushes and boulders in front of a dance school with parents driving in and out. I came here with a muggle friend who I dragged along with me, and after five or ten minutes I think she was seriously doubted that geocaches even existed. I finally clicked when I read the clue for the hundredth time and looked up and it all fell into place. Thanks for the find.
Tftc. Nice easy find.
At first I thought the hint a bit unhelpful, but then discovered it was rather accurate.
Log book may need replacing as it is full, currently writing on an old receipt

12:45, 12 March 2018, # 544, out with OHC doing caches in the area today, took us a while to locate this one until we widened the search and finally found it.. there was lots of junk and rubbish that I removed and found the original log sheet below so i folded it up and put other log sheet (receipt) back on top and replaced cache. The coords were about 10 mtrs out. TFTC
Unreal the cache map puts this cache on the wrong side of the street.
We widened the search as there is nothing on the north side and the 'log book'was soon in hand.

On my way to pick up some dinner and grabbed this one for my first find of the year!
Having just caught up with Team Justice at the nearby Prosciutto Bros, he mentioned this nearby cache. We traipsed down the road and made a quick find to the bowel shaking bass beats emanating from Edge. TFTC
Found it but was disappointed at the lack of things to trade. Added a new log as the old one was full
Find number 5998 at 4:44:56 pm
Quick find this afternoon on the way home from work, just gotta look official....
**Thanks for placing this cache Pa_i_ge**

Attempted this one quite a while ago but today we found it within a couple of minutes.
The geotrack was a dead giveaway.

Another cache, another day, now 97 consecutive days with a find. This one was handy as we were catching up with friends at the Proscuitto Brothers just 100 metres down the road. A quick stop and grab. Love the clue and how it can also be found. Cache in good order.

Really hard to find, trying to search through all the bushes is very painful, really don't understand the hint but we're newbies so we'll have to come back some time
Looked around for quite a while here. So many places to hide it. Checked previous logs and all the obvious places.... But I couldn't work out the hint so had to give up. Will put this on my watch list and come back again another day.
A quick find today after a long caching hunt with Jeckleberryandtedd. My daughter dances nearby so it was good to finally catch this one. Logged successfully! Tftc
We found this cache today at 4:35pm as number 18 of 21 on our Eltham Exploration Afternoon III. A perfect hint and we just managed to dodge the mass exodus from the nearby dance studio. Thanks from D & HA B-A.
Found by Geowife. Didn't understand the clue, until after we'd found it! Found with Melro9 and Kremmen. Tftc
Wasn't sure where I was being led to! On the map Peel St goes through to Bolton St, but I was quickly approaching a dead end construction site and deserted factories on each side. The clue helped, thanks!
I started out searching some dense prickly stuff. Lots of people must each have their own path through this "garden"! Then I got wise! Very satisfactory place... Thanks.

A busy few weeks on the home and work fronts meant I was crawling the walls to the point of annoying the better half... so I got told to take a long walk.
I hadn't visited Eltham for quite a while, so it had built up a fair concentration of hides. The town is also riddled with pedestrian shortcuts, so quite a fun place to explore. 22 caches and and as many kilometers later, I finished in the dark, with a very flat phone battery and a big grin.
On a quiet Sunday afternoon, I was surprised to see the nearby cafe doing a pretty good trade in beverages. The cache site was, of course, deserted. Nice placement, Pa_i_ge.

Quick drive-by, even quicker because I met a couple of cachers there. Hi to debs31 (though there seemed to be two of them) and thanks. Thanks to Pa_i_ge for the cache too!
Suscoe was in Melbourne for a few days staying in this area.
The weather was pleasant for caching with some sunny breaks, cloud at times and a gentle breeze to keep things mild.
Ideal weather really for an enjoyable wander about the streets and parkland areas.
We enjoyed doing the many caches we found and appreciated the work done by the many cache owners.
This is an area of Melbourne that we haven't visited much and we were amazed by the hilly nature of the ground, the steep driveways, and the trees.
This was day two of our visit.
Well we had some help today.
As we approached the area, the timber delivery man asked if we were looking for the little container.
We said yes and he went a got it for us to sign.
What a funny world this is.
Had a chat and we hope he caught some snapper.
Thanks Pa i ge for this cache, the locals are looking after it well.

Oh thank goodness for the clue because the phone had us looking elsewhere!! Tftc!
I, like many other Victorians, have decided to take the Monday off and make this a 4 day Melbourne Cup weekend. This means that I can spend a bit of the time caching. Today I thought that I would wander around the Eltham area so I hitched the bike on the car and off I went.
A quick find. TFTC.

Nice quick find in a public holiday. Did have to wait for one muggle closing up a nearby business
I'm helping Mountain Goat get to 500 caches today. This was a fun little cache that got him a step closer to his goal. Nice hint! TFTC!
#466 - Down in the suburbs for a fun day of caching with uvtorch. Nicely hidden, Tftc
We made our discovery despite being surrounded by muggles - when you are in the right position it all makes sense.
Parked very close to what I thought was GZ but the clue led me astray until I saw it from a different angle.
Thanks for the cache.
Thanks for the cache.
A spontaneous trip meant I didn't have a pencil to log. After an amount of sneaking suspiciously through the bushes, I saw something which immediately triggered the hint to me. TFTC
Out with geochild but windy after a trip to skaterz. Short search and found it. Tyfc
Youngest geokid was busy at a nearby McDonald's birthday party, so geokid1 and I thought we'd grab a few caches whilst we waited. Our GPS was off a bit and we'd had a good look. Geokid was complaining of the cold (and probably wishing she was at a party), so we jumped back in the car ready to head back to the party. Just as we were moving off the clue suddenly made sense and we had the cache in hand. Thanks.
Bland location for a cache, although it did expose me to a bar/restaurant on the same road that I would never have noticed before.
