I am archiving this cache after noting that no appropriate action has been taken to restore it, and I have not received any communication from the Cache Owner, true blue containers, regarding a request for more time.Circumstances that prevent timely maintenance can arise, and I've provided ample opportunity for the Cache Owner to get in touch. However, with no updates or restorative maintenance completed, I can only conclude that this cache has been abandoned. Therefore, it is being archived to clear the way for new cache placements by other interested players in this location. Caches archived for this reason are ineligible to be Unarchived.[Balayang -Geoff](https://www.geocaching.com/email/?guid=35e8567e-6d62-483c-9e3d-c8ec0ffd25bd)Volunteer Community Reviewer -Australia
##Cache Maintenance Required please.##This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit, to address the issue described in the logs. The cache owner needs to either fix the problem or archive the listing, after picking up any geo-litter. In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page.See the maintenance section of the [Geocache Hiding Guidelines](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance). If there is a good reason for a delay in enabling this cache, please post an update note log here on the cache page so that everyone will know what's going on. When the maintenance is completed, you can re-enable the listing by entering an "Enable Listing" log, and then post an "Owner Maintenance" log to clear the "Needs Maintenance" attribute, if set.I will check back in 30 days to be sure that the maintenance has been done, or that further information has been provided. If there has been no action to repair the cache, or explain the situation, unfortunately I will need to Archive this cache. Caches archived because of lack of maintenance will not be unarchived.The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.Thank youBalayangCommunity Reviewer -Australia
Out in the area for a quick visit to TKMaxx. Which wasnt bad at all. Stopped here on the way in to make a quick find. Thanks for the hide.
Unfortunately the container no longer has a lid, and the contents were found scattered about. CO attention required. A more sturdy container required here to survive the rain (when it comes).
My wife and I had visited the Dome cafe around the corner for a refreshing beverage and both had Dj vu that we couldnt explain. We had both been to a cafe just like this but couldnt remember when or how.My wife and I have only been to the west once before together, and that was a time way before Covid when everyone started throwing rocks at each other at the state borders. So it was so long ago that we couldnt remember where Willy Wonka and the Oompa Loompas work, live and love.So after a bit of research it was clear that our last Dme visit (it always cool when the autocorrect adds squiggly lines to letters) was when we last came over for a holiday to Margaret River years ago. With coffee in hand we looked for a bit before a passed log told us to look from angles assuming you werent caffeinated. We were and then climbed up to grab the hide. tftc
Searched up and down and eventually spotted the cache when we found the right angle to search from. Was up in the area for a meeting and at the conclusion went for a walk with SirFancy & I C Nothing to grab the nearest caches.Added 4 finds to the total tonight. Thanks true blue containers for placing TBC - Hidden at the Gate for me and others to find.I added my name to the log at 20:58 on 25/10/2023.This is find number 7791 for me.
Sir Fancy, I C Nothing and Cirrus_wa out for another Tuesday night adventure. We found your cache easily and in good condition. Signed SIC. Tftc
This is my 5008 find.Thank you true blue containers for placing and maintaining this cache.SirFancy West Oz Geocaching committee member.www.west-oz-geocaching.com/
first find after 4 DNF’s. it was very exciting. Put a little something in there so it wasn’t just the log book!
Stopped here to get some supplies for our trip and had a quick look for this one, a quick find but the lid was missing and the log was nearly full, thanks for placing and

Back in WA after being on the road travelling since early 2014.
Ahhh Sunday morning we headed out to busy CBD area of Midland before everyone got moving for the day. Nice and quiet before the shops opened. Took a bit longer than we expected and found ourselves at Alfreds for lunch.
Guildford was busy as there had been a service and unveiling of a new statue.
We arrived as people were leaving but parking was still a little tricky.

TFTC and greetings from Wales UK. A nice quick find whilst walking to Footlocker for a new pair of sandals.
My first cache for 2023! Spend the night celebrating with friends - couldnt leave the big smoke without finding a hide and this one was perfectly placed near where I hit the shops.
Happy New Year TFTC

Sneaky hide here!! In the dark, once we shined the flashlight in a few holes we discovered the cheeky thing. TFTC
Parked in parking lot. Big girls went shopping Lucy and I went caching. Great cache
Doing a few caches in the area and this was one of them. Quick find, log signed and replaced.
Thanks for placing this cache for us to find.

It was a bit of a reach for us shorties but we got it in the end! Found with Geogypsys! Tftc
Up in metro for scans today and specialist appointment tomorrow. Had scans across the road so we popped across afterwards, luckily for me Mr dimor did the grabbing.

Ooh this took a while. I always feel more 'dodgy' when caching on my own! Thankfully I could keep my feet well grounded! TFTC
Attended a Fringe show at the Arts Centre nearby and for ease of things we had parked over here... After the show seemed the perfect time for a muggle free find, so the muggles I was with humoured me while I hunted down my prize. Thanks for the hide true blue containers
Ventured into Midland early before a lot of shops opened. Found all caches pretty quickly today.
Thanks for the hide.
Thanks for the hide.
In the area across the road, so had to be visited. Cache in the logical place. With cmb212.
One of the comments below helped me out heaps to figure out where it is. Love this spot hehe Also helps that it’s 10 o’clock at night and that there is very minimal traffic
Quick find. Thankfully I’m tall and am able to reach down! Cheers true blue containers!
This was my first time searching for a geocache. I did not look hard as it was smack bang in the middle of business hours and I felt a bit dodgy skulking around. I shall be returning at a quieter time for a proper search!
Find 11 of 11 with 2 DNFs on an afternoon bike ride around Midland.
Finished off here, dodging the remaining shoppers as the place wound down for the afternoon. Quick find by Mrs O.

Waiting for a friend in Midland and doing some caching. This one took me way too long, tftc!
Could have been anywhere here but glad to spot quickly. Could easily look dodgy standing here, in midland, with a baggy and a pen. TFTC
Nice hide, tricky to be stealthy, had one juggle interupt me as I was unrolling the log, they were a bit strange tho so don't think they played notice to what I was doing just surprised them as they came around the corner.
