No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

4 DNFs, no response in 2 months to NM or e-mail… time for NA.

Isn't it time this was replaced or archived? Came out this way today but didn't bother to look for this based on all the recent dnfs.

New fence so maybe needs a check up.

No joy here today. There have been some changes made to the area, so i have emailed the CO to see if this effects the cache.

Out with BigCheeseNZ. No luck today.

Only limited places outside the gates it could be, but no luck.

Not sure the relevance of the hint (or the cache name), but found a logsheet in a ziploc so I assume this must be it. TFTC

Was just about to give up and I tried one more place and a object fell out but not container so I thought, but little bear spotted the bag for the log book. Good team work. TFTC.

Very clever

Couldn't find it, and had plenty of muggles that detracted our snooping ability

Looked for ages, couldn't find.

Found Cache log only the cache as gone west

this was not a easy one

**taybee** is caching again with **taybee nz**
was about to call it a DNF when **taybee nz** find the log book only look for the cache but could not find it
All in good order, sign log book as ***TAYBEE*** or ***TB*** TFTC Log by Gsak
Cache was find at 19/03/2016 16:50 Found: GPS > 2016-03-19T04:50Z

Quick find today. All quite at game zone. Thanks for the cache.

Found with kiwi_cat on a cache around the bays day. TFTC

Quick, straightforward find on cache mission with wintersticks. Tftc

Good quick find TFTC!!!

Found with GBNZ. TFTC

Got on to it straight away as good hints. GLAD to have this one, TFTC.

Found after a bit of a hut. TFTC

Found in October with UlmusLynx and Gilgul but I forgot to log it TFTC

A quick find with TregearP on a sunny afternoon in Eastbourne.

All in good order, TFTC.

Second visit for this one, there were just too many people about the first time. We were wandering past and expected it to be busy again but were surprised and managed to find cache sign log without attracting attention. TFTC

Didnt use the hint but found on a quiet Saturday here with GilGul and Selesi. TFTC

Ulmuslynx was the lucky finder while Selesi and I pondered over the relevance of the hint. Good quiet spot despite the lovely weather and the school holidays. TFTC

Easier than expected TFTC

found with no gps. you do not need gps you just need the hint and deyscription.

F2F new log. Great cache

great cache found with deklincammy

Log soaked , needs a waterproof bag for log and probably for the cache.

Found after probably looking suspicious to the neighbour weeding her veges.
But: no plastic bag or waterproofing so tin going rusty and log soaked to be un writable.

Cache # 2,625 - A very quick find today in the obvious location. Did this with Astro Hunter and Violet Butterfly. Thought it would take a lot longer, given some of the logs and the difficulty level, but thankfully not. Only able to scratch in our initials on the extra-damp log. TNLNSL. TFTC!

Found today with Astro Hunter and the Wandering Dragons. Quick find. Thanks.

Cache # 1,065

Did today with Violet Butterfly and The Wandering Dragons. Fortunately no muggles around despite the really nice afternoon. Thank you.

Cache # 514

The GPS said keep going but there did not seem to be enough room. Squeezed into the little space and then decided a) only children would reach it here and b) this was going to be difficult to explain if someone came along. Was that chuckling I heard from the little box? - now it was showing several meters the other way. Eventually dug out the cache, there is no bag so the log is soaked.

A midweek jaunt with tmann421 collecting a few local caches.

A short search on this one and tmann spotted the well hidden cache.

Log book soaked and only just able to write on it.

TFTC

Another great find today while out in the area with Just-Lookin.

Took a bit of searching.
SL (LOG Fairly wet) TFTC

Rainy day and no luck

Cache has been affected by recent rain - log was wet.

Patience was key here. Arrived at the GZ only to find a doggy minding muggle standing right at the hiding spot. Had to go back to the car and wait for him to wander off. Eventually he went on his way and I quickly retrieved the cache. Hid it a bit better. All good. TFTC

Tftc!

Cache was facing the colourful way outwards making it an easy find, especially with the hint. Found with HanahT. TFTC!

Tftc. Nice Easy one to end the day

A Saturday jaunt down the eastern bays, picking up unfounds as we go.
Close confines, even claustrophobic for some. A tactile response resulted in success on this one.
Odd find; cache in order, log signed and safely re-hidden.
TFTC found with team cacher Sweet P too
The Turtle strikes again!

Quick find after having gone for a walk up to Butterfly Creek a little earlier. I note there were quite a few finds since the last DNF which haven't been logged. TFTC hugorosa, #7821

no luck for me today either

New Fence?

No joy here today. People playing tennis, others in the clubhouse. Felt a bit conspicuous, so after a few minutes looking we decided to abandon for another time.

Didn't find this one today - couple playing tennis and people in the clubhouse made it hard to be stealthy will tackle another day.

The thwock sound as we approached GZ indicated we would definitely need to be in stealth mode for this one but we managed. TFTC

Found the cache quite exposed! Luckily all still there and in good order, TFTC

Was bit out in the open! Thanks for the cache found with Wafflekitties

Felt a little self conscientious looking for this one. There was an elderly couple pottering around in the building and grounds. They didn't seem to notice me or if they didn't take any notice. Fairly straight forward find. TFTC.

Piper spotted this one. On our way home from doing the butterfly creek walk. Its been a gd day. Cheers

A pleasant day wandering Eastbourne. Thank you.

quick and easy tftf love the area

Lovely day tn this bay

Called here late in the day and had the place to myself, I wouldn't have wanted to search for this if there were people on the courts. Found after about 5 minutes' checking likely locations, and I realised when I found it what the hint meant. Signed log, TFTC!

#187. Quick find by Mrs GSEL. Fortunately no one was playing here today or it could be awkward. Left a copy tag trackable behind. TFTC

It's so easy

A reasonably quick find. Logbook signed and cache returned to where I found it. All Good! TNLN SL TFTC

Could the CO please check the cache is still there.

2TF @ 2:48 FDF. Found in the second place I checked. Hid round the corner of the building to sign the log so that I didn't disrupt the game in progress! TFTC

** FTF **

Wahoo! First-to-find @ ~1:00pm. If this had been any day last week I wouldn't have been in a position to go out , but today was a different story - the timing of publication suited me perfectly. Not familiar with this particular spot or pathway, but with the help of the hint the cache was quickly to hand.

Thanks for the FTF opportunity hugorosa!

TFTC!

#5891. 3TF @ 20:00 & FDF. All quiet at this time. Unfortunately, there is no zip lock bag in the cache. TNLNSL. TFTC.
