Due to regular muggle tampering, I sadly have to archive & say, this Tom wont be back.. 
Super easy to find, especially since it's on a main road. Was so much fun, thanks!
# 995 Jimmy NZ had a dot day so combined with a trip to the supermarket with Danger Sam in tow, we thought we would find a cache. Jimmy NZ did the admin and I made the find, leaping out of the car into the rain to find the cache. I had found another of this type before so knew exactly where to look.
Very interesting that such an innocuous cache has had so many finds! But we were the first to sign the replacement log. Thanks Popmac for the easy cache to fill a hole, i wonder when Tom will be back?

Another dot day goes away thanks to this convenient placed cache. Thanks Popmac for taking advantage of a good little spot. Despite it being a very wet and busy day with plenty of traffic around , this spot was easy to get to and after a very quick search from Gr33n 'i have found one or two of these before' slime the cache was in hand. DangerSAM was of course there to watch for muggles and also to give some positive feedback to mum for her quick find. Well either that or he was hungry, again. Thanks for the nicely placed cache and good to see it has been replaced after recently going was a walk. Well off to do the weekly shopping and to merge into the steady flow of traffic that passes this way. Might go some way to explain the number of finds attributed to this little site.
Bundled into the car yet again for another adventure. We parked too close and it was too raining for me to be allowed to get out, so I just contributed my opinion from the back seat - well done mum, is it food time yet? 
Thanks popmac for the cache
Thanks popmac for the cache Apparently he's back this weekend! All good here. Hoping that palmy weather will not be as severe as bay of plenty. Thanks for the cache Popmac
When you find a clean log it always seems like a first to find...but seen it about 3 yesrs old nah thanks for the cache
We were in town this morning to pick up one of my daughters from a friends house so decided to grab a couple of quick caches on the way.
A quick find here as it's a similar to another hide.
Thanks for the cache and the smiley.

Had a muggle on a bike watching as he passed, what do you call them? Bikugle? TFTC
Another quick find after all my dnfs this morning. Thanks to the CO for replacing the cache. Tftc
This cache was attempted as part of the Palmerston North leg of our "Road to 6,000" Extravaganza for 2016.
A quick find. Needed this one after a series of DNFs!

Soon found this but beware of spiders. Pity about the rubbish everywhere. TFTC Popmac.
Parked up the road and walked back to GZ. A bit of a look around and figured where the cache may be sitting - short time later, cache was in hand, log signed and left as found. Thanks for the placement Popmac.
Quick find out with grand cachet today. Nice day after all the recent rain. Pity some inconsiderate dumping of rubbish close to GZ made for a smelly hunt.
Wandered out between games in the arena this afternoon (the NZ National Futsal Championship is on and the youngest is in a team representing his region) to seek out a few of the local caches. Took a bit longer than the other 'Tom' cache but then clicked to where it would be.
Thanks Popmac for acknowledging the contribution that Seagnoid has provided this pasttime.

I was in Palmeston North for work for a couple of days, staying near The square and decided to go for an evening stroll to grab some Geocaches before heading out for dinner. I ended up wandering further than I planned but enjoyed exploring a little bit of the city having only been here once before a number of years ago. I had no problems locating this wee cache, and had the log in hand in seconds. Thanks for another excuse to get out and about.
First geocache hunt! Living with a detective who had it sussed before we even left the house, but was fun hunting around for the actual container! First-timers, so we forgot our pen - but going back later to sign the book.
Quick detour on the way to work this morning. GZ appears to be a haven for rubbish. Quick find away from the rubbish hazard. TFTC
Great hide! Thanks for placing! Found on a April 30th on a trip to New Zealand. A long way for the Atlanta, Georgia based Duke's Troup! A speed cashing day with a record 20 cashes found in one day!
Have just moved to Palmerston North from Feilding 3 weeks ago, saw this come up in notifications yesterday so decided to go and find it once I had picked up my daughter from school which is at the other end of the side street by cache.
Quick easy find, thanks for an another awesome cache.
Really looking forward to doing the Palmy caches now.

The last of the finds on today's excursion - The area could use a little CITO, but fortunately the cache wasn't amongst the 'detritus', despite what my GPS was telling me. It was, however, 5m out according to my phone. TFTC.
Only a quick look as we were a rather large and conspicuous group. The 4 mini caches enjoyed looking even though we dnf
#1900 and 250 today !!!!!
Really happy with what I've achieved, however disappointed with not making the 270.
I saw a note at this cache from CO wishing me all the best with my target. Thanks Popmac - I appreciated the encouragement. I'll still crack a few more, however almost time to head to Upper Hutt.
