The cache location has been compromised with the local kids removing it and messing with it. Time for this one to go bye bye.. thanks to all those who found it..!!
The cache no longer has a lid. And some kids (or people of no greater intellect) have found it too, going by what is written in the log.
out and about with 1 Lil Rafa caching in the Low Head and Georgetown area, this was number eight find for the last day of the weekend we had in this area. West Tamar now. a nice cover band was playing at the oval with about 7 listeners watching on, to early for the locals to come down yet.
Thanks for the cache dankpig.
Our google maps assistant wasn't very helpful for gaining access to this one - we found at least three other more useful places to access the cache than the one 'she' directed us too. Anyway, after a bit of a circumference of the oval, we found ourselves at GZ and made a quick find.

#9937 - 3:28:00 PM; Making our way from Hawley Beach to Launceston and stopped along the way for some caches. This one was located and all was in good order. Wasn't sure about this one, with all of the building happening across the road, but all was good! TFTC dankpig
21/12/19 down visiting from Qld doing a day trip of the area. Heading out to grab a few close locals. Cricket game was on but a quick sneaky search locates the cache. TFTC
Wandered across the oval from the shopping centre to make a quick find.

Awesome hiding spot my eight year old twins thought it was very clever. We swapped a lizard and a penguin for a ball and some glitter stickers:)
Found as part of the 2019 Palaver, including all sectional leaders. A top weekend and shows a great deal of support and diversity that scouts have to offer. Collected several additional caches before dinner.

Geez the council workers are really out today. Tried to be a inconspicuous as I could be. Nice quick find
In Tassie for a few days with 6hinemoa2 for some fun caching in the Southern state. No problems here, just a quick find. thanks dankpig
Out with Sorceysal for a few days of caching fun in Tassie . We had just driven off the boat after a long night in the recliner lounge and were heading to Ross via Launceston.
Of course we couldn’t go past a cache along the way.
No problems here.

Walked the long way to cache. Spotted a much quicker walk in after signing the log
Got im. A nice walk on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Good spot! Initially I was looking at ridiculous places. Thanks.
Clever little hiding spot! Found this one with the geokid who chose to swap the wrestling dude figurine for a heart clip. TFTC
Easy find by Sandra, Kate & Ben. Bike ridding muggles avoided - no barking dog - thanks.
YES! Another one down on my half day off for Launnie Cup!! Thanks dankpig for using clever spots and consistent containers
I had to work in the area today so why not grab a cache on the way.
This cache was hunted, tagged and released by activehunters tftc.

No doggies barking,
and a great little hidey hole for a cache [^]

Hi there dankpig.
We found your cache **"Durhams' Corner"** at 2:26:00 PM today. (This brings our total find count to 18600).
The plan today was to log the caches in Notley Gorge and of course to find a few more caches, using the "next closest" method on the way to and from the gorge. We read about the barking dog in the cache notes, but when we got to the cache he was totally silent (or perhaps not there) - so we had an uninterrupted search today.
We ended up finding a variety of container types and sizes on our journey & had an absolutely wonderful day. We found 8 caches (& DNF'd 0).
Thank you for placing this cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places to visit on our nomadic wander around Australia.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found the cache around 2m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
Thanks for the hunt today,
Regards
Ian & Penny.

A couple of dog-walking muggles in the distance, but thankfully no-one around ground zero. Great little hidey hole. TNLNSL. Thanks dankpig for organising the cache.
Catching up with some late logs.
Day four and our last full day of our Apple Isle visit with maccamob picking up a few caches while heading from Devonport back to Launceston.
Our biggest problem with this cache was Tom Tom did not realise we are not allowed to just walk through peoples houses to get to a cache so we took matters into our own hands and found the correct way in. Form there we just followed the GPS needle, avoiding the Plover's, and were rewarded with a nice quick find and our names were added to the log.
Even the noisy dog was not interested in us today.
Many thanks again dankpig for another nice hide.

Found by Mary & David, in company with Team Crackers, at 1405. Took a while before TomTom showed us the right way to go. Managed not to alert the barking dog. Our thanks to dankpig.
Out on an early Tasmanian morning with dty73 & AddG. As we returned to the highway after finding the cache, we passed a policeman standing at the corner of the streetwith his portable radar gun. We were driving very sedately thank goodness. Kutgw
Managed to be quiet enough not to disturb the noisy dog, but the lapwings nearby were keen to see me off - must be nesting. Quick and easy find and retrieve. TNLN. TFTC.
Hello dankpig thank you for the cache.
Junior EeePees was in Launceston doing some refereeing at some soccer games over the weekend so EeePees asked me if I wanted to join him for the weekend and see if we could find some caches while J.E.P. was refereeing. Of course I jumped at the chance to spend the weekend with such a great mate and find caches in and around Launceston.
This was my 11th for the day and the 13th for the weekend.
This was another easy find and again it was raining. the dog didn't make any noises today so we didn't have to worry to much. I keppt an eye out for muggles as EeePees signed the log.
I ended up with 28 caches today and 55 caches found over the weekend and one DNF.

Hello dankpig, us again! We'd stoped to top up with fuel, and popped around the corner in the dwizzle, did our best to avoid parking on a bus-stop, and we enjoyed this particular hide. THANKS for it. Off now to see if we can spot a quoll.
We'd travelled up from Hobart last night, dropped off geoTeenRef for his duties at the junior soccer tournament at ChurchillPark at 8am this morning, decided to lunch at the Exeter Bakery, and needed to fill in some time in between, and then again after lunch, before retuning to the soccer later this afternoon.
A great day out caching with AlbyDangles.

Quick grab on our Tasmanian Campervan Adventure! TFTC!! Creative hiding place!!
Find #239
Find #239
Our first intentional geocache find. Kids were getting bored and headed for nearby play equipment. Was on location and dug around in drain for ages to no avail!!!
A quick find which was great because the nearby dog was certainly announcing our presence to anyone who cared to listen! TFTC
From some of the previous logs was expecting this one to be difficult to remove but it was dead easy!!!
The neighbouring dog was also missing in action today!!!
So altogether a quick experience was had here.
The painter in me wanted to give the empty house next door a lick of paint though!
Thanks.
