This cache has not been found for quite some time and should probably be taken down.

Missing memorial means unable to locate. Can this cache be reviewed please.

Found

Did the puzzle and clues and no cache in the end where the coordinates led me. Looking at the previous comments I see that no-one has found this cache for a while and I did some digging on the creator of this cache Rinsemesocks and he hasnt been on geocaching for many years now with his caches being lost and taken down one-by-one.

The cache seems to be missing- read my previous comment.

This needs updating

I dont think its there anymore.

One of the memorials needed to collect information to find the cache has moved to a nearby park. I found the necessary information on the internet but the cache doesn’t seem to be there anyway. Hasn’t been found for a long time.

Worked out the coordinates and found a place matching the hint but no sign of the cache. Aa this hasn’t been found for a long time this cache needs to be checked.

Needs checking, one of the memorials has moved and the cache doesn’t seem to be there anyway. Disappointing.

Couldn’t find it

Great multi plaque has been moved thought. Needs to be updated

i'm not great at multis but i managed to find this one - obvious hiding spot with spot on coords, i didn't even need the hint!

after looking around the hall for the bali bombing plaque for a while, i eventually read past logs and saw it's been moved. please update your description co! also note that the last find in the logbook is dated 11/7

having recently moved to petersham, i figured it was time i added some smilies to this part of my map. 2nd find for today

Memorial moved to park down the road did find it though!

Found it

Great multi cache! I live in the area and drive past the final location every day!
Pity that the description hasn’t been updated to reflect the Bali plaque being moved to Maundrell Park just down the road…

The description needs to be updated to reflect the Bali plaque being moved to Maundrell Park just down the road. Perhaps add it as another waypoint?

Took heed of the previous finders and did a detour to the park where I grabbed the clue, then back to town hall where I had walked past the other clue. Then a quick find for a cache that was in really good condition and had a vial of green glitter in it. Left the glitter.

On a dreary and decidedly cool day I planned a hodgepodge route of solves puzzles and high muggle area caches so that I could use the cloak of the weather to cache in peace and so far it’s been quite fruitful. Getting the steps up and getting some fresh air. Thanks to the cache owners who maintain and place these caches

#2690 Thankfully I read previous logs about the relocated plaque. Found the required information and headed off to GZ. Quick find TFTC

Should’ve read previous post regarding moved plaque as we looked for a good 10 minutes before reading that it was moved.

Moved plaque still in walking distance from TownHall and geocache.

Easy find once we had correct coordinates, didn’t have pen to sign log so taken photo as proof of find.

And nice simple and easy find

The Bali memorial has been moved to a nearby park, it would be worth reflecting the geocache description to include that!

Signed and left a present - TFTC

info has moved but got it eventually

Great cache! Got us walking.
The Bali bombing plaque has moved to Maundrell park about a 150m walk from the town hall.
We found the coordinates for East and then made our way to the park and found the coordinates for South.
Great hiding spot! This cache has to be one of my favourites I’ve done.
TFTC!!

Nice quick multi, there were some people playing the violin in the town hall which was very nice. TFTC!

Found it..Just to let you know the Monument for the Bali bombing victims is now in Sth Kingston park about 150m down the side road .A nice multi. TFTC rinsemesocks

Got out into the sun and fresh air this afternoon and headed over Petersham way. See they are removing the 3 giant trees that are out front here hugging the building and replacing them. Other than that, not much to report other than its about timing at GZ to avoid looking too suss. TFTC!

I’ve driven past here oodles of times over the years but never stopped. I can imagine this was a very differently trafficked road when the building was first built. Thanks for bringing me here RMS.

We found the original version of this ages ago. We parked a little away to get a walk in and passed the old GZ first. Found it in the same place. Walked up to the Town Hall anyway to pay respects to the fallen workers and visiting tourists. Nice once to keep alive, RMS. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek

Quick find tftc

Solved and found with [@coybear2000](http://coord.info/PR9547H). We were leaving Newtown and heading west so we decided to stop and go for this one. There was construction work opposite the listed co-ords, so we found a parking spot around the corner and walked back. Soon we had the figures and had calculated GZ. Once there C used a TOTT to spot the hide. Log signed and all replaced and we walked back to the car. TFTC.

Out with [@trodectus](http://coord.info/PR8JTE0) heading home from Newtown, put this one on our list to do. Nearing WP, saw a crane, and parked around the corner and walked back to the co-ords. Obtained info and headed for GZ. Once there, quickly had CIH. Log signed and returned. TFTC

TFTC Thank you for hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity.

Enjoyed street art and ballroom dancing on the way to this multi;)

My first multi of the day. 16 for 18 today

Out for an ‘Odd day out in Sydney’ with the geofam and thought we’d have a go at the caches around Petersham. Nice and easy find. Found with Gundrills, KnightJR and Panda_Girl65 (signed G, K, M & P). TFTC

out with the geofam for a speedcubing comp. tftc

Out with the Geofam good day to go caching. TFTC

Out this way with geofamily for speed cubing Comp. for geokiddy. Had a bit of time to spare so perfect time to make some smiley faces. Nice of the competition to be held at the same town hall as the cache start point. TFTC.

Sorted out the coordinates Friday morning on the way to the train station but didn’t have time to look for the cache. Managed to find it early on the Sunday, again on the way to the train station. Great time to look for it as there was very little traffic about. TFTC.

A nice and easy multi. There was lots of end-of-day traffic, so had to wait until the lights changed and the cars were moving before I made the grab. TFTC

Tftc! A good cache in an interesting location

I decided to pursue this fine multi this morning - mainly because the description mentioned 'art deco', currently a weakness of mine. And enjoyed the wander.

The calculations were not too challenging, and soon I had the cache in my eager little hand and the log signed.

Thank you, rinsemesocks!

Today we headed over to Petersham and Marrickville, taking advantage of the cheap Sunday $2.70 per head capped Opal Card fares, to visit the final GZ's of several previously solved Mystery/Puzzle caches, and to pick up any other caches & waypoints that lay along our intended walking route. Utilised Bus & two Trains on the way over, and Tram/Train/Ferry/Bus for the return journey back to home. This was the 1st of 6 finds, and 1 waypoint, for the day.

After hopping off the train, at Petersham Railway Station, we first grabbed the waypoint information for a longish Multi that we have been slowly working on, then proceeded to the Petersham Town Hall for WP1 of this MultiCache. Quickly located the two memorial plaques and noted down the required information, before doing the computations and coming up with some final GZ coordinates to load into our GPSr.

Today the Town Hall was being utilised as the venue for a stamp & coin fair so, before we set off to final GZ, our keen coin collecting family chief puzzle solver went inside to peruse the merchandise while the rest of us waited on the steps out front. She spotted nothing of any great interest coin-wise, so we all then headed off to final GZ to see if we could find something of interest cache-wise .

At final GZ the hide was quickly uncovered and we had CIH. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. TFTC rinsemesocks.

Find #3176

Was a little hard to find at the spot but we got there in the end. nice little walk too.

After having DNF'd Landmark #7, we walked up to this one. Read the signs, did the calculations and walked further to GZ. The cache was quickly found, exactly were we extpected it to be.

Interesting reading the memorials and working out the clue. Good hints lead to an easy find. TFTC

Tricky with lots of muggles and significant traffic.
But I managed it just about. Replacement was considerably more difficult than retrieval.
Tftc.

The clues were good for stage 1. Found stage 2 after a little bit of searching.
TFTC

Tricky not to be seen by cars. TFTC

Well hidden. TFTC

TFTC

Found on my walk through the district. I used the hint as GZ was quite busy today.

Thanks again rinsemesocks.

A quick park, walk and grab. Had no trouble with the sums and I didn't even need a checker! Muggles passing by in their hundreds but enough peace of mind to collect, sign and replace without interruption. TFTC

rinsemesocks I found your cache Petersham Landmarks #2 (reloaded) on 6/1/19, 3:51 pm. This is my find 2231 and find # 13 today. Found the information and did the calculation. A short walk for a quick and easy find. Thanks for the cache! TNSLLN

Was over here today reversing a blue frown on one nearby, realised I hadn't got this one so did what was necessary, read a few prior logs (thanks for hints) and made the find only after a second pass. TFTMC RMS #742

TFTC
A nice little multi after work, really does get rid of the work cobwebs.
Cheers

TFTC!

Maybe I was blind previously, but with the influx of found it logs, I gave it another go, quickly CIH, thanks rinsemesocks

Today I avenged two previous DNF's - hooray.
It did take quite a long time and several kilometres of walking, some just because there was no other way and some because.....well I don't know.
I've been here before with no success, but I did know where GZ was. So out of the train at Lewisham. Now why did I do that? No idea.
Anyway I walked to Petersham, its not far.
Once at GZ it was a quick find this time.
On the way home I caught 'One of 24 new trains.' It was quiet, smooth, and you could actually hear the announcements. From someone who does a lot of train travel I approve!

TFTC # 2834, Streak day #329

An evening of Geocaching around Petersham with a group of Venturers. We found the required information and with several pairs of eyes, we made a quick and easy find.

Nice quick find
The hint is leading but it is now located on a different level.
Nice building and there was some ballroom dancing happening today

Tftc

Gave it a crack and it’s a big DNF from me. Searched even the bottom one with no cigar, container check maybe required

Had not trouble calculating my coordinates. They took me to a spot that the hint was clearly written for. But no geocache could I see.

We definitely sorted out the final location without issue but found ourselves unable to find it in GZ. Followed the directions, then failing to find it, we broadened are search and still came up empty. We’re putting this on the back-burner for now, at least until we’re more confident that it’s actually there.

#149
We were at a nearby church for a wedding this morning, and saw that this one should be good to find afterwards. We worked out the coordinates without much trouble and soon found ourselves at GZ. A good location for a hide! Geodad saw where the good hiding spots would be and we soon had the cache in hand. Love a good urban cache. TFTC!

Thanks Rinsemesocks for getting me to see the memorials and have a chance to pause and reflect on needless tragedies that happen in an instant and forever change the lives of so many people.

With the information gathered it was a short stroll to an intersection we have driven through many times before. With no luck finding the container the hint was referred to and the likely hiding spot ascertained where a fairly thorough search failed to find the container. Perhaps a reload of the reload is necessary.

quick find after gaining the final coordinates.

#212

Second time lucky here, don't know how I missed it last time. Glad to tick it off though. TFTC rinsemesocks

We weren't sure if we would have enough time to complete this one. Luckily it was very close and another classic rinsmesocks hide. Thanks for the cache.

I spied what I thought would be a good spot for a cache as we were walking up the street to the Town Hall. Turns out that someone else thought the same thing and had put a cache there. TFTC!

I am in town with a few hours spare before I need to be in the rocks for beers at 3:30 and got it in my head that I would walk my way cache to cache from Lewisham into town. It's probably for the best that I have no step counter or I might doubt the enjoyment I've gleaned from my jaunt.
This was my fifth cache find for the day after some reading and quiet contemplation at waypoint one. Ground zero was another matter altogether and I felt very exposed as I searched the possible spots. It just took some patience and a wee tad of confidence to do the business of grabbing signing and replacing but in the end I am satisfied that another mint tin was conquered.
My thanks to the cache owner for being my guide today. Cheer cheer!

Looked in all the usual places for an rms cache but came up empty handed this time.

it was a full SKITZ one!

??????????

8/09/17. 1:06 PM. Cache #5286.
4th of 6 finds (& 1 DNF) - Barangaroo, Chippendale, Newtown, Petersham & Leichhardt.

I finished work early and decided to target a few caches in the Inner West that I hadn't gotten around to in the past few weeks. (Plus started with the virtual, "Ozymandias").

After another RMS cache ("Liberty Street Troll"), this was my next target. It's almost 4 and a half years to the day since I found the original PL #2 Town Hall cache (GC2R6QW). That was 2 iPhones ago for me, so I had neither the saved coordinates nor any notes, so had to do the multi all over again. Meh, it's a quick one.

Grabbed the details off the plaques, did the sums and wandered over to GZ. Ohhh.... now it's all coming back. The constant flow of passing muggles, yikes! I had to pause when a muggle parked on the footpath nearby; he wandered over near to me while on his phone to someone and he proceeded to take down the local election posters that had been put up here. (Democracy in action, eh?).

After he was gone, I went back to my searching, taking a few goes until I got it right. SL and replaced after waiting for another traffic pause. With "West Street Troll @ Lewisham" still out of action (when's that one coming back?), I headed north(ish) to "TDK landmarks #2 -big orange building" next. TFTC.

#4336 (2 of 2 today)

Afternoon soirée out in the direction of Petersham for a few finds.
Noticed one was disabled and one had a string of DNFs. Unfortunately that only left three to go for. Of course I came up short at one of them so only managed to find two.
It'll have to do.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
I never managede to grab the original of this one, but it was a nice simple multi - despite a lot of passing traffic.
Got a park near the Town Hall and grabbed the info and made my calcs.
GZ looks logical.

Made my way there and managed to check all the wrong spots first - in between passing traffic.
Ah, there it is.

Complted signing duties away from GZ and then back for the replace.

Time to head home - being taken out to dinner for Father's Day.

Nice and quick little multi. Tftc

Nice little multi and memorial. Thanks for bringing us here

Easy chill night cache TFTC

Quick little multi
Tftc

Nice easy night cache and my second multi TFTC

I member the original version of this one.

Today myself and geo-dog took the relatively short walk from home to Petersham Town Hall.

I knew where the final was but visited the plaques again (a nice memorial) and rechecked my numbers.

After a break in traffic and pretending to fiddle with geodogs collar I made the grab.

TFTC

I didn't remember where the original was hidden. But, it was an easy calculation and a short walk for an easy find.

TFTC.

Had a day off today and I checked my emails to see if my cache had been published yet. Low and behold it was! So was this one which is only a 10 minute drive from where I live. Was a bit worried that someone may have gotten it last night but when I pulled out the log I was so happy to see I got another FTF!! WOO!! Didn't need to use the clue, the hardest thing was trying to be stealthy at GZ when the roads were busy. I caught a break in traffic had a quick look and made a quick find. Thanks rinsemesocks!!

Not fast enough for FTF, but happy to be 2TF! Nice little multicache. Sobering to read the plaques. A timely reminder to be careful in all aspects of life, including finding geocaches at locations like this GZ. TFTC RMS
