I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in a prior reviewer note.
Cache missing. Area has changed a bit since placement. Will rethink container or archive
A good bit of stealth required here as all the residents seemed to be neighbourhood watching in force. TFTC!
After reading the previous log, I spotted the cache back on the ground, and clearly it's not going to last very long out in the open there. The GPS was pointing back towards the corner of an area that had just been landscaped and covered in fresh bark. The hint item was laying nearby, so stuck that back in its hole and hid the cache behind, covered with a small amount of the new bark. Hopefully it lasts ok there etc, TFTC
Found cache laying on the footpath of the gardens drive. Unsure of where it's supposed to be hidden. Have rehidden it in tree on the inside bed of footpath until cache owner can fix
Finally made our way back over, cache has since been replaced since our last dnf. So easy to lose your bearings driving around Papamoa!
Over in the bay on a walk with abcdf4 weekend away picked up in the lovely bop morning nice area tftc
Checked this and confirmed it was gone. Have made a replacement and should be all good to go again.
Have received more than one message that the area has been cleared and cache gone. Will investigate and either replace or archive depending on circumstances.
Quiet night but we didn't find anything...gardens have been cleared but don't know if we were just off our game.
Came over from Rotorua for the afternoon with Squirrel Nutcase and meet up with Philip.Perry and Fap from FapandGap do grab a few caches and clear out maps. Thanks for your placements caches all in good condition.
Hadn't realised the needs maintenance attribute was still in place. Sorted...
Staying at Papamoa beach camp for a few days I decided to do some treasure hunting. Read the notes properly as to which way to go. This was an easy find. I didn't feel dodgy as there was not a soul around. TFTC
Disabling temporarily due to recent DNF. Will check on this & replace if required
Cache was indeed missing. New one in place. Fully stocked with log, pencil & a few goodies. Hidden in same place with additional camo. Ready to be found again!

Quick find with the geofamily thanks to the hint. Hopefully I now qualify for the 3, 2, 1 blast off souvenir. TFTC
(# 5619). Up to the Bay of Plenty to see relatives for Christmas, Today is Papamoa's day. A quick find. Everything in order. TFTC
Will be checking this on Wednesday 9th Oct & replacing if missing and if this is still a suitable location.
We were unable to locate this one, may need checking on as there was a bit of rubbish at the area the GPS was pointing us to.
Nice and easy find at night time with no muggle worries. Cache seemed rather exposed but placed it back where I found it as there was no good hiding spots nearby and nothing to cover the cache up with. CO may want to check on this one.
