Looked around the boundary of the park and couldn't find it. Maybe if we came back again we could but it might have been muffled. DNF
Found a group of geopups but didn’t find anything. It seems to have been muggled and the grass has been mowed two.. on the plus side nice view. 
Had a good look around the most easy to get to hint object, but really didn't feel like a prickly shrub dive today so I'll rerun with partner and cachlet sometime and let them do the proverbial....
The grass and psylla didn't help my psoriasis, but my psychic abilities helped find this phat cache.
Previous person popped pink pack proximately. Presently perfect placement, as prescribed.
Hi there!! My first time trying but unfortunately it was taken I think... In a bowl ontop of the powerbox??
Also the hint? Stay? I didn't get it. Thanks tho was super fun

Lovely little cache! The log book is in great shape and is in a semi easy spot. The hint is nice but doesn't give away the spot. Nice Work!
After reading previous logs, want to hopeful for this one. Yeh, it was awkward, but definitely had worse. Not having a lot of luck today, do was just happy for the find... Cheers!
You know the expression looking like you have been dragging through a hedge backwards well that describes me after finding the cache. Very pleased to have found it
Kids had to really scramble to get this. The hint is the only way to solve it as coordinates aren’t accurate
Perfect, picturesque park, pleasent evening, although strange cloud formation. Was a prickly search and prickly grass to sit on to sign the log. Left a python guarding this pretty, slightly pink cache.... Damn, it's hard to think of words beginning with the letter 'P'. TFTC
Last cache before the next shower and of course we had to place to ourselves. Still a bit exposed, but hopefully nobody was keen to look out of any window. TFTC
Thrilled to be able to log this find after a dnf with Mr Sallies 13 months ago!
This took some time to locate as the GPSr had me on a corner of the playground, and with evidence of bark movement it probably means others who have DNF'd the cache have been there too. The actual GZ after referring to the hint felt a bit exposed due to some recent pruning over the fence? Retrieved and retreated, signed away from GZ then quickly replaced. Thanks for the effort that goes into placing and maintaining a cache.
A quick find as per the hint though it was slightly buried. However, the cache is there are safe and sound. Awesome views.
A bit of manoeuvring to get it but just like the hint suggested ... there it was. Tftc
Found today with Injeanious, it was our last for the morning before heading out to grab some lunch. TFTC!
Quick find, first place I checked while enjoying the view. Thanks for bringing me here.
Peripatetic pair patiently probed and poked persistently, puffing and panting, putting personal pleasure at a premium. Patently plain that we poor people probably performed poorly!
Out geocaching this afternoon with Supernanny. If the container is indeed a sistema it definitely was not in the place where we searched thoroughly! Checked the hint and our GPS and searched thoroughly again - still no luck. Thanks for the excuse to come up here anyway. I will return when someone can tell me that it is still in place. Rodney.

Pleasant Park. Precipitation. Pettifogging peculiarities.
Proper prior planning purely prevents poor Penruddock's pink package procurement performance!

Phew. Perfect play area, pretty day. Perimeter examined, particularly fond of pink container:)
Quick find on a Friday night. Took trackable. Nice views up here. Guess people were pretty nervous during the fires recently though. Thanks for the hide.
Very quiet round here on Boxing Day. Just been to view new Adventure Park, which looks like being a huge asset to Christchurch. Great fun for young and old alike. Tftc
Perhaps we parked by the park, and pitter pattered our way to the perimeter for a quick easy find of this placement with purple flowers nearby. TFTC

The last day of September and both StreetWalker and I needed to find a few caches to bring our cache count for this day to double figures.
This was the last cache find for us and just as well as the light was fading. We had decoded the hint for a quick find, but instead it slowed us down! Anyway. after reading a previous log, we saw a flash of pink and there was the cache.
Thanks for showing us another park in Westmorland and TFTC.

#13106. Last of the day, and a quick-ish find thanks to some past-log-reading by Troodles. TFTC.
still pink but placement we think has moved, “has not stayed” a little more down the line, nice little park, took TB to find a life boat, TFTC
Lovely find to wind up a pleasant family walk round the mounds two sets of initials logged.
Bit of a rummage in pine needles. Photo clue gave us the push we needed. Left some goodies;)
Had a peek about the place. Looks like a big tree has been cut down on the boundary maybe cache went with tree?
Perfect placement pre pine punishment. Post pine punishment, perhaps placement possibly perished? Pensivly prodded, phound, Phew!
A male lurking about in the bushes! Fortunately, no one there to see! Quick find on a nice pink container!
Perfectly placed in prickles. Post my prompt penwork I popped home to my palace for pepperoni pizza, peppermints and Pringles.
Parked on Penruddock. Puffed and Panted up the hill. Plodded across the Park. Poked and Peered at GZ. Prize in my Possession. Penned my Pseudonym.

Wanted to get my cache for the day earlier, but it looked like that wasn't going to be happenning, so I needed to get one after home group.
It went on a bit later than usual, because it was the last one ever for our particular group before we break up! Sad!
But meant we had to leave early, and we were alreayd well tired, and it was late, dark and cold!!
Home group being parallel to penruddock, pleasing then was this cache possibility.
Parked near park, and paced promptly. Phew it was peasy easy place to peek!
Pen out, and placed names in paper.
Consec caching day #892

Playing with my phone, I performed a perfect pursuit of the pink plastic! With no path or privacy I proceeded with caution past the playground. My passage was prompt, as finding the placement. Signed the log paper. I perambulated at pace to my Prado and left. There it is: my predominately P post.

Playing with a new app called locus getting use to it as its more a of a topographic map and app programme. Managed to find this ok but think the app is going to come into its own in the port hills. Signed the log, performed found it funky dance and replaced as found #824, 2015-03-31 at 13:43, Tftc {o} cheers TeamMCI
Purposefully and perfectly placed cache. Plucked from pine needles and penciled tftc
Puffing pedaling phuriously perpendicular Penruddock to proximate pink placement in playground . Poked prodded post pounced and pencilled paper. Perfect.[^].
