I was wandering by this cache so I thought I'd check it, and it is definitely still there!! Waiting patiently to be found
Out for a play day with Ms JustaTrifle and RhoBoCacher at Wynnum today
Time for a wander through suburbia [^] This one defeated us. We searched all over, then called in a PAF who gave precise instructions, but still no smilie

Im pretty sure this is gone we spent about half an hour looking for this one and even contacted a previous finder who gave me exact instructions and location but still no success. Can the C.O. please check this one out we found plenty of rubbish in the garden but not the cache. I will put on the watchlist for the future
Mrs Just a Trifle was out and about in the Wynnum for a terrific day of caching with IolantheK and RhoBoCacher. We had a good scratch around but failed to come up with the cigar ... we even phoned a friend and given precise information as to its location.
Thank you Wynnum Wanderers for having placed the cache and for maintaining it for everyone to enjoy.

Return visit to rearrange the mulch. Obviously can't have looked too hard last time.
Was about to give up and await it's return when a blue tongue lizard appeared and revealed the whereabouts of the foreign matter within it's garden... **TFTC a clever hide**

Well, didn't really get the chance to look actually. GPS took me to the obvious spot but a fellow was sitting on the seat nearby chatting on his phone. Waited around for a while but he was there for the long run so discretion was the best option and I left it for another day. TFTH Wynnum Wanderers. I'll be back.

I knew this one would best be done at night and Wednesday nights I have an hour free between kids drop offs so I headed down to have a look.
A quick rummage around and I heard felt something unusual. Sure enough, it was the cache.

A couple of minutes at GZ but the constant traffic on foot and wheels deterred me from looking harder.
Maybe next time

Rearranged the mulch, looked in, under and around plants. Such a small search area. Perhaps it's stepped out for lunch.
Very public here and without a hint to narrow down the cache location, we had a fossick in various spots but had to move on before we attracted attention.
We had a reasonable search despite the muggle factor, but came up empty handed.
Out caching with the RoddyCs before attending the event tonight. Very busy here earlier in the afternoon so we returned after the event with an extra hint and the cache was soon found. We also met up with some other cachers. TFTC.
Thanks to our fellow Geochers with more experience, this one was found quite quickly. TFTC :^D
The Event tonight at Wynnum causes us to go geocaching in the afternoon beforehand! (Any excuse, after all!) The RoddyCs were in the company of Joojoo57 today.
Muggled out this afternoon, so back after the Event. We met another few cachers there who had no luck, but Mrs RoddyC had been talking to someone at the event about this one and had a fair idea of just where it might be.
So we all went back and, as they say, the rest is history!
Log signed by all & replaced again. Found at 9.25pm on 18th July 2016. TFTC

Caching with some friends and just about to give up when another group appeared and soon Mrs. RoddyC had it in her grip. Thanks for their help and thanks Wynnum Wanders for placing the cache. TFTC
Gave up long before this one was found! Thankfully I found some more cachers that had a bit more guts than I did, and with 7 pairs of eyes (not counting those with glasses) the cache was uncovered. Tftc!
Out in Wynnum today.
Nice and wet and getting wetter by the minute.
First hunted everywhere and then got down to it and found the cache.
Signed the log and returned to hide.
TNLNSL TFTC Thanks Wynnum Wanderers All good with this cache

We were lucky enough to find parking within 20 metres of GZ.
Muggles were everywhere.
Looking as innocent as possible we began a cursory search with Geo-Pop quickly coming up with the cache.
Made our mark & replaced as found.

After hunting some Pokemon and been in work time on night shift next to GZ I thought I'll refresh my hunting back on geocaching, the night was still and only Pokemon stink bugs and millipedes around and with no muggels in sight a muddle work mate and I looked high and low without any geo find. The last cachers here too put a DNF so maybe we are both blind or just have our Pokemon eyes on. CO feel free to email me if you like me to check on it I'm back here for the next couple of nights working. Tfth
10/7/16 Out caching with Marina25 today. We had been to this one earlier today but couldn't find the cache. I decided to PAF and whilst I waited for a response we headed off to find some other caches in the area. Sure enough the PAF responded and told us what we expected...we were looking for the right type of cache in the right location. We headed back for another searched, this time certain of the location, but unfortunately still came up empty handed. We searched pretty hard, but hopefully still a case of cache blindness and not muggles. TFTH Wynnum Wanderers
Thought we were looking in the right spot and broadened our search then the next thing email a fellow cacher who found it a couple of days ago after leasing back and forth we knew we were in the right spot so called it a DNF
This gave me no end of trouble with the muggle convention at Frenchies and a constant stream of dog walkers at 6:30am in the morning, halting any real progress. Finally called in reinforcements after 2 people asked me if i lost something!! Goldenbirds swooped in and went "found it", within seconds of arriving. Ummmm what!!!!! I blame no coffee, which was corrected at Cedar and Pine with some great company and then I was back on the hunt! TFTC
Knowing the FTF had gone, the Hinds shadowed Mitchiemus and I to the GZ where we took our time.
I extracted two interesting bits of litter from one garden bed and wondered what else might be in there. With a few security cameras around (and opposite a bank), we didn't want to loiter too long so I was pleased when MM made the grab.
All good inside so TFTC.

Quick easy find rooting around down on the corner out on street with chasing adventures.
{FTF} Another great WW hide. Coordinates were jumpy all day today but patience and common sense paid off. Once they settled it led us straight there! Very clever. We hope this is the start to many more in this series
