We managed to find this after a brief search. It took us a lot longer to get it open but we eventually were able to sign the log.
TFTC Selbooba this is find # 7543 for us.

Over this way with m4yb doing the other nice and easy series in the area and had heard about these, so grabbed them on the lovely walk around the area.

A beautiful winter's day, picked up megawat60 from the train to do this archived series as well as the new one.
Another quick find, now for the final! TFTC!

Out and about with B12 to find this cache, now getting the chance to log the find online TFTH TFTC

Found whilst doing new caches in area

Bumped into some friendly cachers along the way doing another series when they informed us of an archived series that use to be here so uploaded into onto the phone and boom there it was!! Was great to see it all pretty much in good condition albeit a few tough ones to open!! Sad to see this great series archived!!

TFTC

This was the hardest to open by far but what do you expect when it hasn't been opened for 18 months. I ended up taking it back to my nearby car to work on in comfort and to avoid and accidents if i slipped. Gradually I prised it open and revealed the log in excellent condition and added the names to the log. Now all the clues have been collected I am off to the final. Its been a great little bonus series and luckily the weather held out. TFTC Selbooba

Was in the area today grabbing a nearby cache so thought I'd check to see if this archived cache was still there. And it was.
Took some brute force to open it but all is good. Shame I didn't get here while the series was active.

It is time

Getting the last number proved difficult as the cache container was rusted up. The handy tool we used fell out of TTW's pocket on the track somewhere but we managed to open it. Now on to the finale. TFTC Selbooba

Originally logged under family name of clan-wallace now slowly transitioning to new name

We'd left it a bit late in the day and it's very hot now, so we decided to do this short circuit. Another container that could not be opened but we had kept our improvised tool from the earlier cache that had the same issue. TFTC.

Oh o...the start of soft sand. Not great for my bike but I'm still glad I used my bike since it sped up the journey for all the other caches. Thanks for the cache Selbooba.

Enjoyed walking this circuit on a lovely afternoon, with well themed caches to break up the journey. All - bar one - were easily spotted. Had a spot of bother with this one. Try as I might the lid refused to give so eventually decided to seek a tool - a small flat head screwdriver - from back in the geomobile - which I did, and eventually managed to prize them apart. Suggest that future cachers might like to bring something similar, as a lot of them are becoming very difficult to open.
Thanks for the cache Selbooda.

Geo hubby & I decided to complete this series this afternoon as it looked like it was going to stay fine for a few hours. It rained briefly early on but it was easy to shelter under some trees. An enjoyable walk in the bush and swampy area though quite muddy in a couple of spots so we had to walk in the reeds. We grabbed the required numbers along the way enabling us to find the mystery cache at the end. TFT series Selooba

Out with the Better Half on a walk around the area.

Cache found without problems.

Thanks Selbooba for the cache.

Even though the weather was a bit foul today we decided to head here and grab these caches . We were lucky to avoid the showers and all caches were found easily due to spot on coordinates. Geoson loved the containers and the theme It took us about an hour to make our way around this loop and we enjoyed it very much. TFTC and series Selbooba

Nice easy find. TFTC Selbooba

Went for a walk to find these caches with my family (jasenjanine), OOH YEH, Kristybelle & Benwas1992... I had fun finding this cache! Thanks Selbooba

The longest walk in between caches here, but still the kids are doing a great job... Master 2 made the find here with OOH YEH She was happy to hand over another lolly for his efforts! TFTC Selbooba... With all the clues gathered, we are now heading to the final & hoping we have got our answers right

Part of this series is only about 1K from my home. I saw that it was published in the early hours of the morning. So I set my alarm, hoping to seek a FTF bright & early. To wake & see that 2 caching teams had been & gone while I slept Later on in the day Mistraluna & myself set out to do this series. It was a pleasant walk and nice for us to catch up on the way. I loved the novel containers - well done. SL. Clue obtained . TFTC Selbooba & onto the next one

Came up to visit Luna Maya today after being away for a couple of weeks. She said she wasn't going caching at all this weekend, things she had to get done, blah, blah, blah. I don't think I was there more that 10 minutes before she asked if I wanted to go out and grab a few caches. No such thing as will-power when the two us get together, lol.

Enjoyed the walk, and loved the theme. Thanks Selbooba

TFTC... Now to find the finale!

Joint *FTF* with Maccasreps. Saw this series published just after midnight when I had finished logging the previous day's caching and was ready to go to bed ... to go or not go? I decided to go. Arrived at the parking spot at about 1:20am just in time to see the Maccasreps team getting out of their car, so I was a minute or two behind them, but caught up at the first cache. We had a bit of fun walking around the park and completed this well put together series in good time and in good company.

Signed the log at about 2:13am. Thanks for the hide Selbooba

As we were signing the log, a security guard pulled up on the road shone a spotlight on us and engaged us in a pointless altercation. Clearly, any training in how to engage effectively with members of the public went right over that bloke's head. When he suggested that we were wasting his time, we suggested that he move on and he eventually did just that.

I was sound asleep when these caches got published so when i got up at 6 am i checked the emails and decided then that i wouldnt go to where i was going to go caching i would do this series instead. At 8 am janine from jasenjanine messaged me to see what i was up to so so we decided to team up with Kristybelle and Ben-was-1992 and do the series together. We met at the suggested parking area and all set off with Dandermouse09 and little Tyler as well. Some of the tracks were a bit sandy and muddy and other parts of the track were nice and hard to walk on. All the caches were nice easy finds and dangermouse09 and Tyler took it in turns at each cache to make the find and replace the cache. I bribed the kids with lollies and little Tyler walked the whole series except the last 100 metres where he got picked up. We grabbed all the required info on the way round to find the final.

Stayed at OOH YEHS house after taking part in The Stampede yesterday up at wooroloo, was feeling like an 80 year old this morning but mum asked if we could change her original caching plans to do this new series and turns out jasenjanine wanted to do it to so we all met up at the parking coords, was pretty much an easy walk the whole way with a few sandy and muddy tracks but the kids walked the whole way and took turns finding all the caches with a couple of bribes of lollies from OOHYEH hahaha OOHYEH and jasenjanine wrote down all the info we needed to get to the final TFTC

The tiny annoying Geonosians attacked and I struck back with the RID (Rapid Interloper Destroyer). Some stealth required here due to activity across the road. Numbers collected. Off to the Death Star we go.

Published

Joint FTF for these ones with Firnsey (spelling?). The series was found somewhere between 1:20am and 2:20am, the exact times of each cache escape me! Great fun in a nice spot. Thanks for the series.
