Looked at all the DNFs so didn't spend much time here. Writeup is interesting background despite being a cut and paste from the developer's advertising.
First cache of the day, and a nice, easy one to get into the swing of things 
I recall not being able to find this one but I just checked and it actually was missing at the time, so I don't feel so bad. What did this poor, little cache do to end up in jail?! I guess I must've broken into the prison today and rescued him, signed my name into the logbook and then the geo-police caught both of us... He was sent back to his cell, whilst I did a runner and am still on the loose. TFTC fire-mansam!
Out and about in Hobsonville Point this afternoon trying to clean up some of my last remaining unfound caches in the area
I remember caching around here when I was a brand newbie back in 2020, so yes - there were a few DNF's to avenge. I quite like this area and some of the neat parks around here! A nice haul of 7 finds... All in good condition! Thanks CO's for your hides

Our timing has been terrible as every time it has been missing coincides with our visits to the area.
Today we had high hopes as there had been plenty of recent finds and we were very pleased to finally get our hands on the elusive cache. Such a relief.
Not sure what the "My Little Pony" references in some of the previous logs relate to, maybe they relate to a previous container, or maybe there are just some proud Mt Little Pony fans out there who like to advise of this at every possible opportunity.
In any case we are very pleased to turn this into a smiley.

In the area this afternoon for Mrs and junior to partake in a virtual 10km run around the point.....my job was to collect a few of the local caches ...there were a few caches around this trail that muggles were too close and were not looking at moving on, so will leave them for another day....

Found. Happened to stop right on the spot & while reading description spotted it below my phone
Out on a ride with my geo caching buddies "Team SEAC". Great day out, enjoyed our ride around the area. Thank you for taking the time hide this cache.
Found whilst out on an adventure with Team SEAC.
Thanks for the fun and the cache.

Planned a biking day out with some of the team SEAC crew to secretly surprise Mr from the BrowneHornet who is celebrating a big birthday today. The plan was to bike around and stop for a picnic lunch but what he didn't know was that NZ Iceman was ready to set up at the picnic stop so when we arrived there was cake and decorations etc. After lunch the plan was to continue biking and caching back to the cars.
The weather was perfect, the company great...it just felt like such a normal day again after all the lockdowns.
Quick find by some of the minis in the group.
Thanks for the cache and for bringing us here.

After months of lockdown a plan was hatched to gather Team SEAC for a biking caching session around Hobsonville as soon as we were allowed as it had been far too long for a catch up. The weather was playing ball today... although at some points it was too hot! Halfway round we had a picnic in the park to celebrate a birthday for a member of our team. All logs were signed Team SEAC to save space.
This was cache number 18 for the day and was quickly found, TFTC!

This cache was missing last time we were here, so we are happy to turn our blue sad face into a smile. Found with kakesnz.
Thanks! Me and my son enjoyed searching it during lockdown;) It helped me a lot to entertain him!
Easy find don’t bother jumping in the mud could have a feel around on something steel
I thought GeohoundandI was going to fall headfirst into the undergrowth, but she had the cache in hand before I had sat down and got the pen out of my bag.
I was searching on the wrong side for a while, but once I realised, it was a straightforward find. Container and log in great condition. TFTC 225
Quick search in a few likely places, then looked at the hint and got it quickly. TFTC.
An afternoon of caching and lunching with the 3 geokids. Nice easy find with low muggleage due to rain showers. We'd tried to find this one a loooong time ago and failed. Good to fix that today. Tftc!
Didn’t find anything and then checked the logs. Looks like there’s still nothing to find...
It was my first time doing this it was very disappointing we I did not find it
Searched for ever for this one as Team HRP, 4 sets of eyes to no avail, suggest a maintaince by the Co should be in order with the number of Dnfs.
Looked around for about 20 minutes but it wouldn’t show itself :/
Hope it’s still here!
Hope it’s still here!
Nice find with woolwood9 today.

After searching the wrong place for a while, the most obvious place had the cache. Tftc
