Stopped by this evening and had a look for this one. It looks like others have been looking in some spots as well, but no logs for a long time to confirm whether it was cachers or others. Given it has been a while since it was found (which is unusual for trads in the area), perhaps this one needs a check by the CO?
Found at 1125hrs on our way out & about, took a few minutes to locate but not too hard in a nice location but being very mindful of all of the houses looking out onto the area. Thanks Ryanmc05
We made thus harder than we should have, caching while tired is a doomed idea, tftc
My 2nd old DNF taken care of today [^] DNF'd this one back on 25 March. I don't know how I missed it back then but today it was found literally in seconds in the 1st place I looked... Sweet As Bro! SL at 16:45 on Sat 16 Dec 2017. [No Crows were harmed or had stones thrown at them in the finding of this cache ] I can say that it's contents are good and dry [^] TFTC Ryanmc05
Quick find in the dark by torchlight.
No muggles.
No crows.
TWO caches !!
Signed both with Purrfect Di.
Replaced and moved on.

Found 2 caches here side by side? Does that count as 2? Double thanks for double cache!
(Sat 25 Mar 2017) This one is tricky. Too tricky for me in such an exposed spot... all those windows and possible Muggles watching me made me very nervous Another time in the future I will return TFTH Ryanmc05
It took me a few minutes to find it. Sorry to say that your container does not have a lid (cork) now . Nice park.
Thanks Ryanmc05 for the cache
Thanks Ryanmc05 for the cache
Found it - a cute container but log book black - managed to write initials only. Unfortunately cork slipped in so tweezers might be needed next time / so sorry about that.
Searched for a while but couldn't find today. Try again another day with a less impatient kidlet
Had to visit this unfound closest to home. Took a little search to find, but all ok in the end. Didn't know this park was here. TFTC.
Looked for this one last year without success, but our return visit this morning had it quickly in hand .

We like this little parkland area with all the houses and their picket fences looking onto it - reminds us of an English village green [^].
Thanks Ryanmc05.

Great spot. Found with the grandies after searching several times before. Well guarded by a grey cat. Hi TS useful. TFTC
As the day warmed up, this was a great spot to stop for a sit down in the shade
The heat was keeping most people indoors and I could shuffle seats to me heart's content, until I found the right seat from which to spy the cache

Veni. Vidi. Vici. Scripsi. Heading home after doing some shopping at the Christmas sales and stopped in to get this one. Parked close by and wandered to GZ and after a short search, stone the crows, there was a cache. Signed log and replaced. Gratias pro cache.
It wasn't there last time she was here but today it was just in the right place. After a hellish caching run, this was a relief!
Found with Csaba! and SupaOrange before I had a caching name. A very late log. Turtle out.
Out this morning doing some caching with CP Wanderer.
Nice little hide in a quiet park made for a easy find. Log was quickly signed and we were off for a coffee

A short walk around this lovely park with my geopup saw a find that was fairly quick but still took a bit of hunting. Thanks for the hunt this afternoon
An easy find with reasonable co-ords.
Watch out for the magpies...
Thanks for replacing for us to sign a fresh log!

Went out for the second time to try find this cache, couldn't find it. Lifted bush branches, poked around and look in gaps between the rocks and no luck. I would ask the owner to check that the cache still exists. I have searched all around GZ. Maybe the coordinates need updating?
Had a look around for quite awhile and found some really neat hiding spots, but alas, no cache [B)].
Think this one could do with a check by the CO .
Thanks for showing us this place Ryanmc05.

I have nothing against crows, though I got an idea where the cache was hidden before I found it. Took like 3 seconds. Thanks Ryanmc05
After visiting the nearby shopping centre, we decided to grab this one on the way home :c) No crows to be seen. TFTC!!
Found with 2011*turtle. This was a quick find with the gps leading us straight to it. Nice park. TFTC
Finally after being hassled for months found my liitle mates geo. Great hide ryanmc05 TFTC
Loved the camo, as we were writing the log it decided to rain on us, so a sprint back to the geomobile was needed!! Thanks for the cache!!
Felt like I had rocks in my head when I couldn't find it at first! New coords are spot on

Freddo found this one as I was walking 22m further on. Go figure. Hmmm, plenty of coordinates below this log if you need them!
Clear skies to Ryanmc05 from TeamAstro.

Darknstormy and i were eager to get out the house and get some local caches
First off we were in the wrong area and we knew that there couldn't be a cache here, so we read some logs and found some more appropriate coordinates and the cache was ours
Thanks for the cache Ryanmc05

Furrangel and I decided to get out of the house tonight and grab a few caches that were new in the area to us.
This one lead us around and around ending in areas that really couldn't house a cache..
A quick sit down are read the logs and we found a set of coords that lead us stright to the cache.. 20 odd metres away...
Thanks for the cache Ryanmc05
Coords posted above will get you to the right area... you will get the idea

Tonight we head out to grab a few caches and as we wait for squeaky to get ready we completed some of the local caches, posted coords had us near a very nosey neighbour, these need updating asap so no other cachers look suspicious. TFTC
These current co-ords need updating as the ones from the listing had us over near a garden bed in front of a house. The muggle watched from her window. Using the co-ords locus cache provided put us in what we thought was the more logical area.
Fortunately I'd seen this kind of hide before, so with the amended co-ordinates I was able to make a pretty quick find on a lovely spring day. Thanks Ryanmc05
Nice quick find using locus' co-ords.
I'm hoping the CO will update co-ords to these as it will stop future searchers from having to spend too much time looking and may stop the nice cache from being muggled.
Thanks for the cache Ryanmc05 and Keep on Caching.

Please don't stone the Crows, they have enough problems without getting stoned. No coach at the moment, no full back and the captain has been injured all year. Please no stones. Sticks and stones will break their bones. Anyway, I did find a stone which was useful and a message in a bottle which I left my mark. Unfortunately I pushed the cork in a little bit to much which scared me as I couldn't retrieve it. I went bach to the car and managed to fix it up for the next seeker. Thanks Ryanmc05 for the adventure.
A quickish find, after I punched in locus' coordinates.
Thanks for the tricky hide Ryanmc05 [^]
Find #857

We gave this a go on Sunday but didn't spend too much time on it once we realised the coordinates we had in the GPSr were out. With the updated ones programmed into it today it was an easy find. TNLNSL TFTC
A joint silver today for KingQuad on this one!
With 2 screaming geokids at home refusing to nap, and a lonesome sigh from the icache device, everyone was packed into the car and navigating to this one
I pulled up to find an empty park, no less than a minute later locus cache came buzzing in. The coords put me 20+ metres off the mark but with some quick thinking we were looking in the right spot until something didn't look right
Bingo!

I was sitting at home when this cache came out however I made a lengthy phone call before Brodie dog and I were ready to leave and loaded a flat tyre into the car to take it to be repaired nearby to GZ, so didn't expect to get FTF but a joint silver with Mrs KingsQuad was a lovely bonus
When I arrived at GZ, KingsQuad were already there but hadn't yet found the cache.
Turned out, GZ had us in a grass area with no real potential hides so we spread our search further out.
Mrs KingsQuad made the find while I took some rough coords that may be a tad closer than the originals.

At home working on a website when this notification came through. Only a few minutes by car so off I went.
Coords had me towards the houses at the northern side but logic sent me back to the circle.
Setting here is similar to Happy Birthday Dad, less than a km away. Hope there aren't too many prying eyes!
