Have made contact with the brother by carrier pigeon. He will advance on the site post haste and replace the offending lack of container. As soon as the pigeon arrives with the good news back in Ireland i will enable the cache.
 
25-Mar-17
Last found on 6/1/16 and has been disabled since November 16 waiting for the brother around the corner to replace it but that hasn't happened. Perhaps it needs to be archived to get it out of the feeds and leave the area open to others.
 
20-Nov-16
Disabling until replaced by brother who lives around the corner, not Ireland.
 
18-Nov-16
Didn't read the logs and just like all the others came up empty. This one looks as if it's gone to the gods.

28-Feb-16
Needed a cache for the leap year souveneir - so after a late Sunday brunch this seemed like a quick one to grab.
Thank you for bringing me to this lovely park, a quick find for me however I have to say I felt uncomfortable searching around under the back corner of someone's fence. I think there are so many better places here the cache could have been hidden.

Looking for a cache not too far from home for my cache for the day and I saw this one, don't know why I haven't noticed it on the map before.

As a bonus it's a small so I was able to drop a travel bug off here.

24-Oct-15
A short walk after visiting the markets. Busy place on a sunday morning but found a gap in the passing muggles to retrieve and replace the cache.

Dropped off The big C to continue its adventure, had hoped to pick up the other trackable in the inventory but seems its long gone ;-(

Find #1712 at 17:58, very close to muggledom.

Thankfully it was an easy find. As I headed back to the car, an army chopper made a low pass overhead (one of four that had flown over as I was on my way here 30 minutes earlier.)

Thanks for the cache, Peig.

An afternoon of caching, on our way a number of others nearby, we decided we had to do a quick little detour for this cache. Parked near playground and walked toward cache, we hit GZ with muggles working nearby. A quick little find and log signed before we were on our way. TFTC

We decided it be would be nice to do a run from The Gap, over Mt. Glorious, to Lake Wivenhoe today.
Every now & then you just have to escape suburbia. Smile

A nice quick find after the co-ords decided to settle.
At first we were on the wrong side but soon realised our error & had the cache in hand.
Signed & replaced as found.

I saw that this one had been enabled. I headed down and soon was at GZ.
Soon had the cache in hand. Signed the log.
Fed the chooks next door some grass. They were starving and needed some greens.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks Peig Cool All good with this cache
 
12-Apr-15
We weren't stumped for long!
 
10-Apr-15
Needing a cache for the day, and being not too far away, this cache fitted the bill. As I wandered to GZ, I started to look for something that I expected to see. On reaching GZ, I still hadnt spotted it. Time for a rethink. Hmmm. Oh, there is what I am looking for Smile And there is the cache Smile I signed the log and returned the cache as I had found it

Had a good look here today but couldn't find it.
 
14-Nov-14
Nowhere in sight... Moving on!
 
23-Oct-14
It was a quick find because it was left completely exposed so I signed the log and put it away properly Tftc
 
Couldn't see hints due to basic user access. No clues from previous logs. Did find several toads and snails but nothing cryptic
 
06-Oct-14
Sneaky hide - TFTC! Smile
 
05-Oct-14
Finally found it. Sneaky. Our first one. Yea!
 
02-Oct-14
Clever hide. TFTC.
 
26-Sep-14
Definitely still there. Great hiding spot, wouldn't have rated it as an easy find though! Didn't sign log as didn't take pen... sigh.
 
10-Sep-14
Nice little cache or first and many more to come.
 
06-Sep-14
Out doing a few caches today, thought we would go for this one too, sadly it appears gone. Searched for ages, got a paf to confirm, yep we were in the right spot - No cache sadly. CO needs to attend and confirm.
 
24-Aug-14
Out and about caching on a Sunny / Cloudy / Showery / Sunny Winter's day. Cool
After quite some searching I kept coming back to the one sport and now I have feeling it is gone. Sad
Later I checked with a previous finder and it seems I am correct. Twisted
The CO should check of course.
I have been know to be wrong. Razz
 
22-Aug-14
Rainy day after work today I managed to stop by and make a quick find on this one. Tftc
 
09-Aug-14
Hurray! Our first one!
 
02-Aug-14
Called past on the way home after doing a few km on the bike. Fortunately no yappy dog just a few clucky chooks around.

Thanks - this rounded of a great morning on the bike http://connect.garmin.com/course/7471254

Great little hide , nice park as well TFTC

I know this park well, being a popular place for my children and their friends to play in after school.

When I saw this cache published, I was at home looking after my children and with the geo widow out, I didn't have the chance to grab it. As history went, the FTF went to a likely person Wink

Today after the house work was out of the way, I went out to get a few finds, and with this being the closest to home, it was the first.

At GZ, I was a little concerned that the neighbours were in the yard, but the find was quick and easy, and very soon it was found, signed and replaced.

Thanks Smile
 
25-Jul-14
TFTC - great spot!
 
16-Jul-14
Another find for the day. Took the geodaugther and geodog with me to stretch our legs. Geodaughter picked it out straight away from the clue given. It was a little tricky to get open but just needed a little twist and it was open.

My pen ran out, so back to the car to get another writing implement, and I was able to sign the log.

After a 2TF reasonably nearby, I couldn't resist wandering over for this one... To my great surprise, I didn't set off any dogs like I usually do; instead there was "nobody here but us chickens"! TFTC where all is OK today.

*FTF* on 13/7/14 @ 21.42.

T-Tech and I had spent the weekend at Stanthorpe, and as we stopped at Maccas on our way home tonight several notifications came through on the phone. 2 were fairly close to home so we kept a check on them and decided to give them a go as we got closer. We had a failure at the first one, but saw no logs on this one so made our way to GZ.

I have to say this was a hard won find Twisted There is a little dog in the yard right at GZ and he did not like our presence.and let everybody know. And the fact that the cache is under his fence would make me very wary about letting children stick their fingers in there do the searching! Very glad the residents dragged the yapper inside and we could get the deed done. And happily there was a blank logbook, so we signed it and made our getaway. TFTC, Peig.
