As there has been no response to the last request/s to attend to this cache, or provide regular updates, the cache is being de-listed on the basis that it has been abandoned by the Cache Owner.

If there are components or remnants of the cache, please return to the GZ and collect the cache (or remnants). We don't want to litter our environment with Georubbish.

Caches that have been archived for lack of maintenance will not be unarchived. This is explained here: [**Unarchive a geocache**](http://support.groundspeak.com//index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70).

If you wish to contact me regarding this cache, please send an email via my profile - [**Bunjil,**](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the cache name and GC number.

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

I've noticed this cache is carrying a maintenance log which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.

The guidelines indicated that regular visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance) If you can't attend to the issue promptly, then you need to [**Disable it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=235) - I have Disabled it for you this time.

**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) by 29th July,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Repair and/or Replace your cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.

- If you don't plan on fixing it up then please [**Archive it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (by 29th July). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, it is likely that I will need to Archive it on the basis that it has been abandoned. Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the instructions posted above.

We are very sad because we couldn't find it. Cheese this was sad.... maybe check on it

We had a pretty good hunt, and couldn't find. However, this was a lovely little park, and glad to visit it. We cleared out some rubbish, so did some good anyway!

Nice little park.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

We started looking for this cache then read back on the Needs Maintenance log which says the plants at GZ have changed. Could the Cache Owner please check - thanks heaps

Certainly wasn’t easy as didn’t find another hint would be great though

Searched for awhile and could not find

J

Couldn’t find it even with some creative stretches of the clues and thinking outside the box. Will try again another time, hopefully we just missed it this trip.

Well we certainly spent a bit of time here today. Looked in all possible spots to no avail. Spotted the clue and rooted around in the bark but no small container was found. Contacted a previous finder who suggested we look closer. This time went down to soil level. Please advise if we need to bring a shovel next time.

After seeing a photo of GZ sent to me by a previous finder we can definitely say that this cache is MIA. All the previous bushes have gone and replaced with lily type plants.

Second find ever

Had 2 hours between jobs that I needed to waste so I decided to do a bit of caching. Sl thanks for the cache.

Tftc sl left wood camera and speach

Readily located the cache in this most lovely little park. Some interesting sculptures nearby.. thanks..!!

After a previous DNF here, I returned after a message from the CO that it was ready to go again. Rode up on the bike and 2 women engaged in some decent conversation on a bench seat some distance away. Pulled up and went straight to it. Log signed and all back safe again. Women still chatting and didn't even notice.
Find 1246
Thanks for putting this cache out there.

Thank you, kids found it straight away.

Nice cache! Old family friends live on the block so I thought this would be worth a look while we were visiting from Ballarat.

Sadly a DNF on this one today. No muggles. Searched pretty extensive. Area is quite barren when visited today as it looks like plenty of garden maintenance has been carried out.

What a beautiful little park! After looking in the wrong spot, it only took us a little more time to find the cache. Great cache! TFTC, Brainiac03

TFTC

Found while visiting family nearby.

Thanks suzuiq

Thanks so much for the cache, our second one ever!

Lovely little park that I enjoyed the sun in after finding the cache.
Don't think I would have found the cache without the hint, so big thank you for that.
Looked like the area had recently had new bark put down which did slow the search down a little bit, but found in the end.
Thanks for the cache Suzuiq
Hunter

How long do you wait for a muggle sitting 5 meters away

Today was a bit warm for a bike ride so I took the car instead so I could enjoy the air con after returning from each short walk and search. It also enabled shorts and thongs caching as well to keep cooler.
I only had about 2.5 hours but managed to find all that I looked for except for one which looks like it has been in a fire.
No one in this park today made for an easy sign.
Thanks suzuiq for the cache, the adventure, the hunt and the fun.

Nice afternoon for a search. Happy Australia Day!

A last minute decision to head out caching today with lukie1987. A quick online search to find an area we both hadn't done, and here we are.
Struggled a bit at first with this one, but quickly spotted after reading the clue.

Ended up heading out with ozhockeychick to a location we both haven't cached in.

We ended up gettign a few under our belts and the weather was perfect for caching in.

TFTC.

TFTC. Was a bit thrown off by the hint but a quick search of the area resulted in a find. Yay.

Another good find while driving around the area today.
Short search to locate this one. SL TFTC

We know this park very well as our archived cache [From Little Things...](https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC4601B_from-little-things) was here.
EB99 wandered around a bit as the compass was being very, very unhelpful. I jumped out and searched in an obvious area where she had already done a perfunctory search (being mindful of snakes, I don't blame her) and made the find.
Thanks suzuiq for another find

Believe it or not I cycled here from Richmond (35km) - just to find this cache! Find it I did, it was raining heavily by the time I arrived though! I was looking for the trackable that was supposed to be in the cache, which had the last clue for another mystery cache. No sign of the trackable, but no matter, it was a good 75km training ride there and back, even if a little wet! TFTC

Nice quick find on a windy Sunday! Log needs a bit of work! TFTC

Nice easy find. Been a while since I last found a cache this side of town.
TFTC!!!

Found this one with my Geodad, Bazinga01.

Why i seem to do these at night is beyond me. Probably takes me twice as long to find. Nicely hidden.

Dropped trackable [Lat John's Silver] ...in one of the very earliest caches I found.

Found with geokids- great find!

I managed to get out of work a bit early today, so I just had to find a cache! An easy find in a lovely little garden. thanks suzuiq for the cache.

nice little hide. TFTC

Quick n easy tftc great liitle cache pulled the entire tap apart tftc

Nice easy find while out riding with Geogljill-11 and mark9375 TFTC

Great find. Thanks.

Couldn't find looked for a while but had to get to work would try again

Not where we first thought it'd be, as we found after a nice disassembly.

Found it nearby

TFTC

Found by me while the other confused folks searched elsewhere - thanks for the cache.

Out with Gunks when found this cache. TFTC

Found tonight with grumpy gramps 1, in the Frankston area tonight to tackle a fairly in touched area. Hoping for double figures tonight. TFTC

Out and at large this afternoon with my caching buddy Slink1. This was a short caching timeout due to both of us having other commitments. TNLN TFTC SL

Out and about this arvo with Dunko for a short caching timeout
Many thanks to suzuiq for the time an effort in placing the hides. TNLN TFTC SL

Nice little park. TFTC

2nd attempt at this cache. I was about to walk away fearing another failed attempt at this one. Two Men drove up and it was obvious what they were looking for. One of the men quickly located the cache and we all signed the log took nothing tftc

Starting to get dark. Used hint to find cache quickly. TFTC suzuiq.
Chiefton

Just had time after work to stop by in this area and search for three caches. This was my final one of three finds and I was tracing the footsteps of rmdhudson who I had bumped into at a previous cache. I saw him again driving towards this and he confirmed it was in place which was helpful. Took me a little while as I checked the obvious to no avail and kept looking. Eventually just checked the right spot and there it was. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log and visited some trackables. Thanks for the cache suzuiq.

Bike riding through the area. Grabbed a cache on the way home.

Number 3 for the evening whilst awaiting the start of tonight's orienteering event. Jogged over from number 2 as time was running out. Was a quick find using the GZ +/- 5 metre search and a great use of urban camo. TFTC suzuiq.

Quick find, thanks! Hint was handy.

What a pretty little park! And a cache to find on my way home from work! TFTC

Find #2405

After attending a nearby event, I headed here. I've had my eye on this cache for some time because it fills a square in my Finds by Placed Date Grid. I headed for the most obvious object but was sceptical that it could be the hiding place because this cache is listed as a "small". The object was no longer in use which suggested that it was an extremely good piece of camo, but no cache was there. I was still mindful of the container size and so extended my search radius by a couple of metres and was rewarded with a sistema. The cache is indeed a "small". SL TFTC

Got to this nice park and for some reason read some logs first. One led me to the cache easily enough but it is obvious that the hint has been throwing some people off the scent. Mind you one look at the size (small) should have fixed that anyway. An easy find once you look in the right spot.

Easy

Quick find

2nd time dnf , pulled tap apart, no water, washer is still in good condition lol

This one is right around the corner from what is now my former flat. Having looked there several times I finally got a second hint that was still rather vague. My housemate started searching round an odd-looking bush and there it was! I could see why this one has so many DNFs attached to it; what a great find!

Dirty park, too much scummy litter for kids

It was a nice day to be out and about with my boys, to enjoy the nice weather during a bit of a cache run today. We all had a great time visiting some cool locations and some parks, where the boys would have a play before heading off to the next location.
Not where we first thought it would be but found it in the end. Thanks for the hide.

found it good hide cache in good condition

Found 1150
Found while out caching with Snap Happy, The Empire and TR while at the Melbourne Mega. Fantastic couple of days and my first time caching in Vic.
Thanks suzuiq for placing and maintaining this cache.

On the way to the Melbourne Mega and grabbing a few caches along the way with Happy pants and Yoshi Warrior. Took a bit of a search under torch light to come up with the goods.
Thanks for placing & maintaining this cache for us to find.

Found this with Tomboy 711 whilst travelling around the area whilst attending the Melbourne Event...

A beautiful day to be out and about in this beautiful area as we grabbed some smilies... I apologize for the generic logs - It no way detracts from my enjoyment and the efforts gone to by the CO's...

A short search, found the cache, stamped and returned...

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for my enjoyment suzuiq...

Took: Nothing
Left: Nothing
Stamped Log...

Staying around the corner for the mega weekend and picked up a few caches tonight under torch light. After dismantling the obvious structure we extended the search by a metre and sure enough there it was, the hint threw us off a little, tftc suzuiq.

Down for the Mega and staying nearby, we had some tea and set off for some night caching. I think the hint throws you off the scent on this one. We found the cache hidden in a traditional manner. TFTC suzuig.

I CAME HERE 3 TIMES AND CANT FIND IT!!! Needs another hint or a better one. Text me 0437 928 461

Looked thoroughly will come again

driving past stopped in with thinking cache was missing after a few did not finds
but there it is hidden away safe and sound thanks for the fun

I've looked everywhere for this one on three occasions, so I think it may be gone.

Couldn't find it, even after going a few times with the help of friends.

Looked for 20 minutes with four other people and it was nowhere to be seen. Hasn't been found in a while - is it still there?

Quick find before work nice park until you look in the gardens behind the path and the rubbish makes it like a tip.... Some people should be ashamed of themselves

The kids and I tried for 20 mins but couldn't find it. This is our first time so maybe it is out inexperience. Will come back and try again.

Don't rely to much on gps. Log a bit damp. Tftc

Love this park. We had also found the previous cache in this park. Hopefully this one will stay a little longer.

We were passing so called in to see what we could find. The phone GPS was all over the shop but perserverence paid off with help from the hint. Lovely little park. Remember reading 'Over the Garden Fence' in my Nanna's scrap book. TFTC

On way to visited my friend at bupa Bonbeach.

Quickly stopped and found it.
Thanks suzuiq

My first cache in a year, and my first cache in my new neighbourhood! Thanks

Nice familiar spot. Nice to know there's a cache here! One problem: couldn't get it to stay sealed without removing 2nd log. Will endeavour to return it.

Find #: 3985
Time: 5:06 pm
Date: Sun 2 Aug 2015
I was watching the footy, but wasn't enjoying seeing the Bombers thrashed by the Bulldogs, so thought a cache or two might cheer me up.
Since my 10km circle is pretty much cleared, I headed south, and the nearest ones were in Bonbeach.
Just before I got to this park the rain eased off, but started up again just as I found the cache.
I signed the log book under the cover of the trees at the back of the park, returned the cache, and ran to my car.
The log book has fallen apart already, basically because it looks as though it was never really secure in the first place.
Thanks for placing this cache suzuiq

A job well done sir/madam

Heading along the highway on a cool Thursday night I knew that there was a newly published cached in the vicinity so made a slight detour. Under the cover of darkness I followed the needle until I reached GZ and then flicked the small torch I had on. Something caught my attention and I was soon adding my name to the log. It was nice to discover a neat little park like this, and I liked the sculpture to the east of GZ.
Thanks to suzuiq for placing this cache.

;c) WoW 2nd 2 Find after a Fun Day With My Navigator
Thanks for this quick cache

We won't be heading out on the hunt tonight but the area is very familiar to us as our cache "From Little Things" http://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC4601B_from-little-things?guid=c61f3cb6-44fc-4cfb-ba2f-65e0c8277bb1 was there until archived in August last year. Here's a bit more info about Mary Bell from the cache page
"Mary Bell was born in Albury in 1927, spent her childhood years in Howlong, N.S.W. moving to Melbourne in 1944. She settled in Chelsea with her husband, Neville in 1949. This park was a local collaboration and gives you a clue how much her community loved her.

Mary began writing a column in the Mordialloc-Chelsea News called "Over the Garden Fence". She had an extensive knowledge of herbs and the local flora. Her recipes and answers to the hundreds of letters she received were informative and entertaining. She caught public attention with her promotion of the 'No-dig' garden.

Her love of all things horticultural raised money for local charities. She educated generations of Chelsea and Carrum school children in the art of gardening, healthy eating and ways they could contribute to environmental conservation. Mary also taught at the Burnley Horticultural College.

Here's a couple of Mary's tips:

- Brown onion skins chopped finely included in mulch around your roses minimises black spot.

- Eggshells are a good source of calcium and magnesium when added to mulch or compost."

Good luck to the FTFrs and congrats on the cache hide suzuiq

20/07/2015 8:15 pm, Find # 4508.

It was a night of many publications, but this one stood out as it was only 5 kms away.
I gathered what was needed and went for a drive to a park that I had been to in the past, that time I was 2TF.
I arrived and the park was in darkness, I headed of GZ and the GPSr had me a few metres from the hint on the grass. To future finders, the hint is just a reference to the area in which the cache is hidden, you wont find it on the actual object.
I started looking around and the cache was soon found, I took it back to the car and flicked through the pages to see if there were any other names but none were found, I then added my name to the logbook.
The cache was then replaced and I was on my way.

Thanks to suzuiq for placing this cache.
