Hi there Hoadjie,
This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention.
You may recall having received an automated email from Geocaching HQ which explained what you needed to do.
Unfortunately, nothing seems to have happened, so the cache is being temporarily disable - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713)
**You do need to respond to this enquiry in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.**
#What should you do now:-#
You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-
- **Check On The Cache:-** Visit the cache to check, repair, replace or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the logs of praise to roll in.
- **Place A Write Note Log:-** Reviewers are not mind readers (unfortunately), so without your note on the cache page explaining that the site works are on-going, you have been in hospital, the area is in flood, or some other reason that has prevented attending to the cache, they can't tell what is going on.
You need to post a note to the page (within 14 days) explaining the situation and when a Reviewer next looks at the listing, all will be fine for a little bit longer.
Be sure to indicate **the actual date that you expect to have it fixed** so that everyone knows you are on top of it. If you have a long term unavailable cache (where you don't have an actual date) please **post a Write Note log every 4 to 6 weeks,** so as to keep everyone up to speed.
- **Adopt/Archive:-** If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another Geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it,**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.
You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned and processed accordingly.
Honestly, it's better for you to decide, so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.
Thanks for your cooperation,
Bunjil

Definitely can see where it was meant to be, the dirt was freshly turned up and there was an indent of missing container. Sadly it seems to have gone to geoheaven
Went the long way around to try find this one. Could see a very strong possibility of where it might have been, but no container. Looked all around.
Went the long way around - found what we thought would have been the place for this cache but nothing there. Nice spot though
Found it. Fairly easy find but nice little walk. had to jump back after finding out there was possum hiding in a tree we looked in
We are visiting Daylesford for the weekend from Melbourne, and we stopped off here for a stretch of legs and of course, a few caches. Was able to find quickly! Great spot TFTC )
On way to Bendigo for the weekend, a lovely short trip and finding your cache Hoadjie, thank you so much for placing it.
Stopped by Gisborne for some lunch on our way home and grabbed a cache while we were there. TFTC
A new geocach has been hidden
The grass is very long at the moment so please be super careful and look out for snakes.
please try and stay to the path as long as possible

A muggle has found the cach and I'm afraid it is gone. Will have to get a new one. Hopefully have it up and running soon.
Out for a drive, we stopped for this beautifully hidden cache. All nice and dry. Thanks Hoadjie.
Thanks for the cache, I grew up in Gisborne and haven’t been back other than passing through town to the shops in years and it’s amazing to see how it’s changed.
I wonder how Old Ulrich would feel about the way the shire has looked after his donation.
Cache is in good condition

We stopped for lunch in Gisborne and thought that this would be a lovely park to let the dogs have a run around while we ate before heading off again. Nope, this is a lovely nature reserve and not suited for letting the dogs stretch their legs. The GPS decided to play ball here, and we were soon at GZ. Plenty of possible hiding spaces and many of those were checked, and then we noticed something that looked slightly out of place, sure enough with the help of a natural tool we were soon in possession of the cache, signed the log and replaced the cache. Cleverly hidden Hoadjie, needed the natural tool though, fortunately plenty around TFTC.

A mate organised a bike ride from Gisborne to Macedon and back, so I stuck the steed into the car and drove up to meet him and the other members of our BUG.
Once that was over, I cast about for a bit of adventure... This one was close by, so a short walk from my parking spot, and a nice quick find.
Thanks, Hoadjie

A simple find here for us today. A lot of the grass has been stomped down so the area is looking a little worse for wear, but a few drops of rain will perk it right back up again.
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks for placing this geocache out and away from the crowds so we could enjoy our usual Sunday excersize of walking between geocache find.

On our way home from our road trip to Bendigo and had a stop here in Gisborne on the way. After taking the long way to GZ and doing a bit of a bush bash it was Mr Pooky who made another find with the help of the hint. TFTC.
Quick find together with DarkGinger. Neat little reserve, neat hide. Thanks for showing us this spot, no scouts around today.
Geocahe is in good conditon. Someone has been able to put a small swap in there.
Please be careful of ants, there was a few around the geocache when i checked it.
Also there is long grass know. this wont be cut by the shire any time soon, so please be very careful when looking.

Found this clever little cache hide amongst all the spring flowering bushes and grasses in the Reserve. SL at 6.11pm Left: pathtag. There were 3 king parrots having a lovely play quite close to GZ. Unfortunately the phone camera is not good enough to capture their antics. #6561 TFTC Hoadjie and for giving us an opportunity to wander in this lovely Reserve.
Nice and easy to find cache on a sunny afternoon. Few Scout kids were out and about in the park, but I out-scouted them muhahah!!!.. thanks for the cache. All looks to be in usable order!
