For those watching this hide will close soon
 
24-Aug-17
Cheeky hide. Weekday morning so the area was fairly busy. Coffee in hand I made the find and signed the log. TFTC
 
29-Jul-17
Nice one. Did not had a pen but the empty log is there Smile
 
23-Jul-17
New log
 
19-Jul-17
The clue is good, the concept is awesome, but sadly I also suspect this cache 'listing' is currently out of action.
 
16-Jul-17
2nd time looking for it and still no cache. Perhaps muggled?
 
30-May-17
Had lunch at cafe, drive out of carpark for oldmorty to announce we are close to one. Returned to carpark and found the sheet. TFTC.
 
30-May-17
Tftc, headed here on Christmas Day but the cache wasn't in play. Finally returned. The wife grabbed a coffee, satisfying her addiction, while I found the cache and made a start to do something about mine.
 
30-May-17
Out for a days geocaching with morty8888 around South Turramurra; an area we were very familiar with having lived in Turramurra for twenty odd years in a previous life. After a lunch break at the cafe we were about to drive away when I realized we were parked very close to this cache. A very innovative cache. TFTC John Doe.
 
28-May-17
Stopped off on my way out to the Amateur Radio NSW (HAM Radio) bi-monthly Trash & Treasure sale at Quarry Road Dural, to pick up this one. 1st of 12 finds for the day.

I knew that this cache's GZ could be a busy place, but being early on a Sunday morning made for a relatively quite GZ, with only a few muggles lurking around. And I had a fair idea of the sort of placement that I could expect to find, but I was surprised at how obvious the cache was as I approached the "hide".

Had a chuckle as I read through the log sheet, and had to agree with all I read, so had no hesitation in "signing up". Only problem is I may have trouble getting to the designated meeting places, as I rarely manage to make an appearance at those frantic "events", not helped by my not owning a SmartPhone. I usually find out about them AFTER it's all over Sad

Thanks John Doe, and bella@waggy, for the novel cache placement. A bold one indeed.

Find #1726
 
30-Apr-17
Found this one today after completing nearby scout series for some light excise.
I had see this clever type of hide in Hobart so I soon had the cache signed and coffee order Thanks B@W for placing the cache
 
25-Apr-17
Couldnt find it first time. Its now back and found. Thanks.
 
19-Apr-17
It's back found it after failing on Sunday... good cache Smile
 
19-Apr-17
I couldn't suffer in silence any longer and finally had to attend Geo Anon. TFTC
 
16-Apr-17
Spend a lot of time but couldn't locate... is it still there????
 
16-Apr-17
Couldn't find it. Spent ages looking.
 
02-Apr-17
Good to go again
 
02-Apr-17
Taking the CO's advice we stopped off here for coffee and a cake to refill the energy reserves after some nice bush walks this morning.

I can say the blueberry and ricotta muffin was yum.

This cache made me laugh out life.........I love a cache "hidden" in plain sight

Fav point from me

Came here the other day but it was very busy with the pre christmas shopping so I thought I would come back on Christmas Day. Came back today and no find. Pretty sure I knew what I was looking for based on logs and clues, but I think it might have been removed.
 
15-Sep-16
After having found the nearby Sleepy Hollow, I stopped by at this one. We had tried for it before with no success. Today I could immediately spot something which did grab my attention, but hopefully not too many others'. Signed the new log as FTS, and then returned it to its location.
 
09-Sep-16
All good
 
27-Aug-16
Log book is starting to get wet.
 
27-Aug-16
Very funny, and very clever.

Headed across and sat down for a few moments before starting the search.

Quickly found it and realized that I haven't seen this idea before. A very clever idea too - Well done.

Log sheet is starting to get wet and difficult to return to its container though.

Will return and allocate a favourite point for originality once I have one. Nice little shops location too.

Thanks for the cache!
 
21-Aug-16
Found yesteday but forgot pen. Had a laugh though.
Came back to do it properly today.
 
21-Aug-16
Nice cache and camo B@W.
We made the trek to south turramurra to find this cache.

After admitting to the problem we signed up to Geo Anon.
See you all at the next meeting.

Afterwards we stopped off at the cafe and had a coffee. (well coffee, hot chocolates and a milkshake)

TFTC
 
20-Aug-16
We came to the shops to get some refreshments after finding another cache nearby so I took the opportunity to “grab” this one. I was surprised when it was pointed out to me. Interesting idea B@W. SL, thanks.
 
20-Aug-16
Great Cache.

Thanks.

Day off so decided to hit up some nearby caches.

Quick find once at GZ. Quite an interesting container a bit outside the norm.

Cache is in decent condition

Thanks

Now that was a different type of cache! First time I've seen a log like that...

Driving through South Turramurra, I had to stop to find this cache. Quickly spotted and added my name to the list.
Funny way of hiding a cache, which I have seen a few times before.

Thanks for the cache bella at waggy.

Haha. Very good hide.

What can I say between laughs? Thanks B@W.

Very good cache, we looked legit loitering around the shops and reading.

Hi, my name is Equipe. (Surname not included for the purposes of anonymity.) It started around the end of 2010 when my then primary-aged son told me he had found a new hobby online. It seemed harmless at first, just a wander around the local park, iPhone 3 in hand, looking for a plastic box. Then came the slight diversions on shopping trips and popping in to see friends who conveniently lived in an uncached area. Later on came new ideas for family holidays, and hours spent staring at computer screens working on near-impossible puzzles. Also the obsession extended to completing challenges and looking through the statistics deciding which gap needed to be filled next. All day treks, boating trips, going out in bad weather, tying up my shoelaces, pretending to be on the phone, walking the dog too far, hassled by the cops, heading into the bush at night, skulking inside libraries, ascending clifffaces, drowning phones, generally being late it goes on and on anon anon.......

But it has been a lot of fun, where is the next one?

TFTC Bella at Waggy and John Doe
 
17-Jul-16
I guessed what I was looking for and soon had signed up!?!

TFTC.
 
14-Jul-16
I'm going to give this a favourite even though I am not sure I liked it. Hate public caches but it was original. Only done about 2 others like this. For anybody else who reads it my stamp might look a bit strange. Might buy some food from that suspicious looking character inside even though with my ability to recognise people it's more that I want it to be the cache owner. Tftc
 
11-Jul-16
Loved this one, thanks!
 
09-Jul-16
Well that's odd. We replaced last weekend and field logged on a new app and just noticed it was still off line so hopefully this one will stick as we noticed some other logs not sticking during the week. Walked by this morning and its ready to be found
 
02-Jul-16
We checked yesterday and it was there but after seeing EDF's note below todays trip showed it was indeed gone. Will replace soon but we might rethink this in the coming months
 
02-Jul-16
If this is what I think it is, then it would appear that the recent progress was only temporary....
 
29-Jun-16
I guessed that the cache was going to be, what it was before getting to GZ. I throughly enjoyed this cache. Thanks for a wonderful cache.
 
26-Jun-16
Kids loved it. Tft
 
25-Jun-16
My first one ever. Yay

With all my problems, this definitely sounds like the group for me!! And now I'm signed up!! This is a very cheeky "hide" indeed. I had a little trouble replacing the log due to the bottom being damp so did a fold and popped it in. Loved the concept. Adding my FP. Cheers
 
12-Jun-16
Yes, I've signed up!
Sounds just like the group for me - I like dangerous situations, I find only the dog wants to share them, I can't stop at just one find and I'm tired of people who won't mind their own business and let me get on with my search in peace.

TFTC 3rd time lucky!
Very quiet here on Sundays.
Cache # 1510
 
11-Jun-16
Good to go

Might have to make some progress with the Progress Association to ensure it says.

Remember to read top of the log.
 
09-Jun-16
Tried to sign up but I couldn't find any information to do so. My condition is worse than I thought!!! LOL
 
08-Jun-16
Two reports in 24hrs of can't find so will check.
 
25-May-16
I stopped for a coffee on the way through and took the opportunity to check out this "hide". Nice idea, not many takers though Smile

Thanks bella at waggy.
 
28-Apr-16
Great cache. Thanks. Geokiddies didn't get it!!
 
25-Apr-16
Very clever hide, signed up.
 
25-Apr-16
Signed up
 
24-Apr-16
Yay
 
21-Apr-16
Drove up, grabbed the day's paper and wandered over for a cache as well.
Didn't quite understand the hint until I laid my eyes on it as I assumed it was located elsewhere.
A few muggles were loading into the cafe but, I moved on, thanks John Doe/ B@W
 
21-Apr-16
Based on other "signatures" I assume we have found it and duly logged our find. What happens when log is full? TFTC - WeesandPoos.
 
19-Apr-16
The wave of finds had slowed down, so today decided to grab this on the way home from work. Drove in and parked nearby. A group of teenage muggles sat at the picnic table as I walked past, checked one place and then looked at the next. Hahaha, saw the cache and was able to retrieve it with no issues. SL and replaced. Clever one bella, right under muggles noses, well done, TFTC.
 
17-Apr-16
Last one for the day on the way back from getting the new ones that had been published down at Killara. Despite the coffee shop doing a roaring trade it was quite easy to retrieve and sign without raising any suspicion. Nice to see something a bit different. Thanks John Doe / Bella.
 
13-Apr-16
Our first cache. Thanks!
 
13-Apr-16
Dropped geoson off for soccer practice and decided to kill time looking for this one. Our first night cache, our first of a kind, and our 200th too. Great cache. Had us in stitches for a while. TFTC.
 
11-Apr-16
Great disguise use your eyes.
 
10-Apr-16
Find #: 1,276
Companions: None
Muggles: A few
Weather: Warm autumn morning
Cache condition: Good

I combined two pastimes of jogging and caching to search for this, as it was about the right distance from home for my weekly longer-run. When I got to GZ I immediately spotted the camo; I had a good idea of what to expect having found a couple of these before (still waiting for that call from that band - London _not_ calling Sad ). Nobody was paying me much attention ("jogging gear" camo), so I signed the log and replaced the camo, then reversed my steps home. TFTC
 
05-Apr-16
We found it today while out and about.
We signed the different log.
We took nothing and left nothing.
Thanks for this interesting cache.

5/4/16. 12:10 PM. Cache #3704. Streak day #653.
1 today - South Turramurra.

Under 3kms from home and I woulda binna contenda ... had I been home, but of course I was returning from a cache in Kenthurst when this one popped up (riblit, yer killin' me!). Thought I was going to save this for a rainy day, but knowing a little about this cache changed my mind and thought must get it while it's still there!

So ducked out today and timed the drive (6 minutes) which would have put me there yesterday at 11:48 had I been home. Not that I'm spewing or anything. No need for a device, made an easy find and enlisted myself...in 5th place Razz
Grabbed a takeaway coffee and home again. TFTC.

I was very tempted to race down when this cache was published yesterday but knew it was in hot FTF territory so just decided to watch the logs roll in.

iPhone took a little while to settle and then pointed in the direction I was expecting. Quite busy this morning so sat down on nearby bench to plot my stealthy reconnaissance. Seems that I had taken an obscure twist on the hint because I couldn't believe what I spotted on the way back to the car. Hilarious! First one of its kind for me and I couldn't wipe the smile from my face for the next 30 minutes. A little surprised too that I was third to find.

Thanks for placing and starting my day in such an entertaining way!

What chance do we have for a FTF when this one is in C62's front yard?
 
04-Apr-16
Finally a cache that the CO will not be able to get FTF Smile
 
04-Apr-16
Second to Find @ 12:13 - drat that **Yurt**

Full log to follow
 
04-Apr-16
Was having a very unproductive morning in the office (well it is Monday!) so when I saw this come up I raced out the door. My chances of FTF were raised about 75% by the fact that the CO was out of the race. But it's also in KRS territory so I was surprised to find GZ vacant on arrival. Coords looked a bit off but using the Google Earth view put me right in the spot and I found myself staring straight at what I assumed was the cache. I sent a pic to the CO who later confirmed but also said some camo looked missing. I signed up to this great organisation as founding member and *FTF* at 1202pm. Went to the car and waited for others to show up, usually there's a fair frenzy in this area but after ten minutes I decided to go. GH must have turned up as I was leaving.

Thanks!
 
04-Apr-16
Yeah of course I was in Kenthurst at the time this went off, so despite it being in my backyard, the chocolates went elsewhere. Makes a good rainy day cache for the last couple of weeks of my streak.
 
04-Apr-16
Bugger!!! I missed this notification. I could have grabbed it after work. Good to see a new cache in this area.
