It appears after many years out of the game this cache has been muggled. I am archiving it as a result
Looks like this one is missing. Very close to the road as well, so a difficult search.
Quick find but no actual cache. Just log sheet in plastic bag and a dinasour. TFTC
Quick find in obvious place. No outer container though. Needs maintenance. OCW Brewmaker. TFTC Goughy2012
Quick find while pretending I was waiting for the lights. Not much room for the Dinosaur that was in there....

Not to much traffic but stealth was still required!! Nice easy find.....TFTC!!!
4 of 4 for this Sunday winters day in the North West of Sydney.
Cache in place and accounted for.
Between traffic it can be located. During traffic pileups, just looked like I was waiting for the lights to change.
Another Goughy classic

We were in the area and thought we’d check out this little bit of colour. Not a soul around so stealth was not needed. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek
Finally got some time to get a few more caches though a big storm meant I cut my activities short. Was close to this one this morning and parked across the road and then took the slow crossing to reach GZ. Grabbed between traffic - was very busy here even at this time.

An easy find - where I expected. Just a problem with passing muggles. A bit of care & the cache was mine. TNLN TFTC
The original log is full. A piece of paper is serving as the alternate log. Could the CO please provide an new log.
Nice quick find to get me a "wonder" . I added some paper but I didn't have a baggy. TFTC
Nice day for geocaching with skyejam and found it easily. Thanks for leading us here

Plague Muggles, busy street!

A quick dash and cache from home. Not sure why we'd left it so long to do this one, but it sprang up in our "Mystery" filters so off we went for it. We've seen this type of cache quiet a bit so it was (for once) a no brainer for us. Cars aplenty, tried to make sure we weren't mucking about with the cache while the lights were red. TNLN SL TFTC

Out with MrSmith00 this afternoon, he suggested this would be a nice easy find to keep my streak going.
Apart for the constant stream of muggles, it would have been.

TFTC. I drive past here a lot on my way to my daughters place and miss it every time. Today on my way home to the Hunter Valley I was determined to find it. A nice walk down and up the hill to claim it.
I was at a Christmas Eve dinner around the corner, and decided to take stroll around and make this find. There is heart shaped log now that someone's added. I made the find and replaced without being seen. I tried to fix the magnet, but I'm not sure it's strong enough. TFTC.

I have passed this cache for the past two years almost every workday. Today, on my way to Westfield Hornsby, I decided to park the car in a side street and walk over.
It was an easy find and I manage to find a little corner on the log sheet where I could add my name.

I very quick and easy find.
The logbook is full and needs to be replaced.
Some paper has been added by another Geocacher.

We stopped on the way through to pick up this one and ensure I find at least one cache this month Thanks Goughy2012.
Heading to the Hunter valley from goulburn for the day and with heavy traffic (even at 6am!) Couldnt resist a few quick caches to break up the trip!
Beware!!! Full of ants!!!! Nice little grab with geokids. 1st in the series for us. TFTC
Managed to grab this one quick enough with a break in the traffic. Replacing it has been a waiting game. If it’s not one direction, it’s the other or those across the intersection! And so I stand here pretending to cross the road although I’ve never even pushed the button, writing this log in the hopes that I’ll get a break soon enough to put it back! TFTC!
Nice little park and grab! Found at 0027. Not many muggles but a few cars still zoomed past. SL TFTC!
Easy find and not to many muggles this time of day. Number two for the day.
Next cacher might bring a new piece of paper for the log book as it's pretty full.

Log book full, found cache on the ground as magnet from the container is missing.
Managed to time brushing away the spider webs, signing and returning the cache in one cycle of the crosswalk lights. Log full however and needs replacing.
First one for 2017. Must get a few more in this series - the yellow and black gives a good clue. TFTC.
My second one of these so I knew what to expect. I parked around the corner and walked back then waited at the crossing while inspecting the site. I could have stood there all day as the button hadn't been pressed, but the traffic soon disappated and I retrieved then logged well away from there. Returning the cache was just as easy but it would be hard at peak hour. Thanks Goughy2012 for the fun and hide.
Lots of traffic passes and stops at this point, so i had to pick my moments to retrieve and return. The fake shoe tie came in handy again.
I wonder how many times I have worked in this reserve and though I should come and do this cache. Well today I did. Tftc
Early morning walk when there were only a few muggles around starting work at the care homes locally.
Quick and easy find, but of course I didn't have a pen with me to sign the log.
Thanks Goughy2012

Well it was my last day before heading over to the USA and I had to keep my streak alive for yet another day so I made the early morning trip over to this side of town to grab this cache.
Found a park under 100m away and I was in business, made the trip across the road and soon had cache in hand.
Not too much traffic at this time which made things a bit easier for me.
Signed log, thanks for the cache Goughyyyyy2012

Quick and easy find. Not a huge fan of the location though. So many muggles!
Signed and returned before heading to the next one.

Parked in nearby side street and took short stroll to GZ. Luckily only one muggle and traffic not too bad either. TFTC

The geonephew is staying with me for a few days before Christmas and after making a nice quick find of Y&B#1 we decided to get number 2 of the series. As we got to GZ we were fortunate to get a red light, kicked the nephew out to retrieve the cache and then we drove around the corner to SL #2352 on streak day #1265. TFTC
A quick and easy find whilst visiting my children in Sydney. TFTC. SL.
Leaving from the train station I was going to stop at "private island" but decided to make this my 1st instead since I didn't have any gum boots. Typical find. TFTC
Tftc, nice easy one. Parked around the corner and headed up. Waited for a break in the traffic before retrieving and signing.
I decided to head out this morning to find a few caches and walk off my hangover. I pretended that nobody was watching me and looked in the usual places. Waited for the lights to go green and grabbed the cache. TFTC!
Grabbed a few other Goughy hides on the way back from the shops so I thought I may as well grab this one too. I stopped in at Kitchener Rd and walked back and waited for a break in the traffic. It certainly is a busy intersection! After a few minutes the moment came and I grabbed the hide, walked off to sign and waited again for a break to re-hide.
Thanks Goughy - quick and simple!
Geo-Haiku:
Green, amber and red
Looking for yellow and black
Finished with blue ink!
