Will have a look soon.

Out on an 'easy find' mission with the younger members of TFM today.
Pretty sure we were looking in the right place (the clue fitted perfectly), but were not able to locate this one.
Given the previous log, this cache may need a quick check to see if it's still there.

Beautiful day for a soccer tournament. We looked and looked but couldn’t find it.

Walked across the park listening to multiple sirens - something serious happening. Macwatt went in one way and I went the other way. Macwatt came up trumps. Thanks for the placement HKCB

Was time to come back and find this cache, and what better time that 6:30am in the morning! Out I came with my torch feeling rather conspicuous. Luckily this time the cache was quickly in hand and I was on my way into work Smile
 
01-Jun-17
Went for a wander around the area this afternoon in an attempt to replace the greens with smilies but only managed to get 4 out of the 8 I tried - unlucky day. Quick find here though! Luckily no one around, unlike the other cache in this park that I tried to get. Dang muggles. Thanks for the cache
 
15-Apr-17
Nice find and didn't have to walk far on the soggy ground. tftc

21-Feb-17
Checked on this one yesterday, yes it has gone. Disabling until I can replace.
 
19-Feb-17
I searched and searched, but finally had to give up Sad

30-Jan-17

Nice find
 
06-Sep-16
After being told that ivy had been removed it was fairly easy to find
 
13-Aug-16
Wahoo
 
17-Jul-16
17/07/16 14:50 Lost my pen somewhere on the walk over, so took a photo of cache & log to prove the find. Tsk Tsk. The owner of the property next door is removing the dead ivy that the council had sprayed. And a runner came by twice. He thought I was weird... The neighbour now knows the cache is there and will leave it... Nice guy... Cheers, GC.
 
16-Jul-16
Had to hurry between heavy showers today. Happy to spot cache. The H dropped off as I picked it up - it's not in the cache. Helpful handy hint.
 
10-Jul-16
Nice easy find after having had a bit of a bad run today (with finding caches). And geo-dog loved exploring the park so smiles all around. It was a bonus to sign the brand spanking new logbook with the nice artwork! TFTC
 
27-Jun-16
Replaced the container here. Added more swag and a bit of decoration. Please replace log into plastic bags when replacing. The help keep the log dry!
 
26-Jun-16
Excellent quick find thanks to your very accurate clue, complete with man doing bizarre exercises whilst hanging from a tree in just VERY brief shorts. Thanks for the cache and a bundle of laughs. Just signed one of the loose pieces of paper in the container.

06-Jun-16
Woo Hoo! We found it quite easily however we did read through the comments quite an easy find but you do have be a bit adventurous and get on your hands and knees haha! There was no muggles around but I would be aware of the nearby soccer fields. Not entirely sure of what the acronyms in the clue meant but we found it in the end. The gps was pretty accurate too! Thanks- Reneé and Hayley Smile

28-Apr-16
Took a little bit of searching - clue helped
 
24-Apr-16
9.05am. Took quite a while to get to this one. In fact I almost gave up as I was getting wet. And then there it was after three tries in that one place.
Thank you. David.
 
20-Apr-16
A bit of a lunchtime cache today, this areas latest caches largely untouched by me which makes for a good area. After having a look around, I had to wait out some mugglets crossing the park before making my move... Which was probably dodgier than just walking right in.. I had a bit more luck approaching from the other side, not sure if it helps!
 
03-Apr-16
Oh no DNF. Found all the clues and thought we were in the right place but not found....
 
26-Mar-16
Another smilie towards todays target TFTC.

Had the morning off work to attend an event nearby, but didn't need to be there until almost 10am, so I did what any normal person would do - I set about locating as many nearby caches as I could without being late to the event!
Quite a distance between caches here when on foot (was tempted to "borrow" the groundsman's little tractor actually!). Coordinates were spot on and cache easily found. SL. TNLN. TFTC!
 
12-Mar-16
Toughest find yet but we got it! TFTC Smile
 
06-Mar-16
Had to pretend it was a rugby ball when muggles walked past, worked a treat.
Tftc
 
04-Mar-16
Wow I forgot my password and had to reset it but I found it
 
29-Feb-16
Nice spot
 
21-Feb-16
We found it, took us a little while. Smile
 
27-Jan-16
Took a few mins but I got it thanks to observing my surroundings a bit. Tftc
 
21-Jan-16
Might have to come back with less muggles. But there was nothing in the H...is there another one?!
 
10-Jan-16
Found on a windy slightly drizzly afternoon which meant that the area was free of muggles! Not a difficult find - TFTC - number 900 for me Smile
 
05-Jan-16
Got there in the end. Coordinates a bit off but keep searching
 
05-Jan-16
Took a little while to find the correct base, but was simple enough from there
 
04-Jan-16
Yay
 
04-Jan-16
3 found in 1 hour
 
03-Jan-16
Rather damp in there today, but fortunately we did not have to search for long and our young cacher had the goods in hand. TFTC
 
Found it third time round -_- haha tftc
 
03-Jan-16
Nice hide. Container could maybe use a touch up.
 
02-Jan-16
Quick find in between showers thanks
 
30-Dec-15
I started my march across the park to pick up this cache and narrowly missed stepping on a baby bird since I was concentrating on reading the cache description. I spotted the gap in the hedge and jumped in to retrieve the cache. I quite liked it in there. It was nice and cool. Tftc.
 
30-Dec-15
Collecting up some smilies in the Hillcrest area. Thanks HKCB. A nice reserve Big Grin
 
25-Dec-15
That was cool Smile added more paper Smile
 
22-Dec-15
Nice easy find. The cricket pitches look in good "nick". Mind the unintentionable pun. Made me want to have a bat. TFTC.
