I accidently went looking for this without noticing it was disabled. Obviiously I didn't find anything. The reviewer has already had a look months ago in response to an archive request so why hasn't this been archived yet? Clearly the CO has no interest in maintaining it regardless of whatever exchanges occured with the reviewier. Caches in this state are allowed to slide for far too long.
Yet another cache that has been disabled for a long time with no action. Seems pointless for me to take a look while in the area.
Owner needs to take more responsibility for either fixing their caches or archiving them rather than leaving things in limbo for a long time so that the area is unavailable for those who wish to hide caches they look after.

As it turned out I was passing close by so did take a look. No cache found as expected.
I fear this has gone! I found the number on the green 'bird' box and searched around the post behind it that was holding the low retaining wall but certainly no container like is shown in an earlier log. 
not behind any of the post behind the green box.
not behind any of the post behind the green box.Tftc. Easy find with the hint
I didn't have a pen do hopefully the photo will do.

Out for morning run. Been meaning to look for this one for a while but normally too busy TFTC
Spent a little while searching in the wrong place. But we were pointed in the right direction by a man across the road who clearly knew what we were up to (whoever you were if you see this, thank you!). Once we had the right spot the cache was an easy find. TFTC
Easy find. Unsure how title relates to clue and cache site. Log book damp and fairly full
A quick find but I never understood the title, if it was related to the hide that is.

Not sure what this has to do with a bird box.. Cache just lying on the ground at the hint location.
A nice wee driveby after a walk along the river (it was running really full). TFTC
Why I pay attention to met service I do not know, the weather report said it was going to be drizzle in the morning before clearing, so mucked around at home before heading out at 10ish weather was good, many dnf logs which was a pity but also 13 founds which was much under the 40 I had wanted to get, not to worry enjoyed the finds and some very well put together finds, sorry about the copy and past logs but a very big thank you for putting the caches out for us to find.
I was sure that I'd ak=lready logged this one, but I hadnt'. Apparently we provide much sport for the neighbours....
Nice and quick find which was just as well as a Mother and child walked their bikes past (child had a flat tire) just after I had retrieved the cache and moved away from its location. Log signed and cache returned after they had walked further up the road. TFTC.
Good luck reading my scrawl! Quick and easy find near park with some hungry sparrows and ducks.
Cache # 2,592 - a quick find tonight. Cache all in good order. TNLNSL. TFTC!
Feeling a bit stir-crazy on a wet aftwernoon, just had to go get some caches. First of the afternoon -TFTC.
Thanks for the cache. I found it on 22/05/15 at 1:25 pm.
Great find - grabbed it in my way back to the car after walking the dog. Park closed after the flood so cars have to be left on the road close to GZ.

This would have been a straightforward find if it wasn't for the muggles who had parked their car and bike trailer right beside the cache. My young caching buddy managed to duck in and locate the cache while I nonchalantly created a visual diversion by dropping things, 'chatting' on my cell phone and pretending to check out the local vegetation!
TFTC - took TB to move on.

Yip. Would make a good bird box for a Road Runner 
. Out for an afternoon walk and a spot of caching. This was the 4th of 4. Just signed the log, hopped into the car when the heavens opened. Yay. We kept dry. TFTC . Left trackable.

Left trackable.Had a couple of days staying in Paraparaumu and manged to get quite a lot of caching time. Fair bucketing down for a good portion of both days - hence some very very short logs in an attempt to keep the logs as dry as possible! Thanks for the caches, neat area to cache in.
An afternoon caching on the Kapiti Coast. Straightforward find Thanks for the cache.
Easy find, made up for the last confusing cache just down the road which we have yet to find.
Found with Swift12. Take care when you're searching for it, there's quite a bit of broken glass near it.
A quick find while in the area this afternoon, the electrical transformer enclosure made a good shield while I signed the log. Note that you're not in any danger from these boxes, the only danger would be if you broke into it. TFTC!
Quick find with Kiwi mico. SL. TFTC. Hoped no one watching from windows across the road.
Waited until rain eased off before walking up from reserve, where we had enjoyed a Christmas picnic lunch before rain started, to grab this one TFTC
This Cache makes no sense to me.
Difficulty to high, terrain to high.. this is confusing...
TFTC #450

#6023. The place was quiet today, but as soon as we started to search, two birds (chickens - with tags) came to investigate. The cache was found after a short search.
