Game of Thrones Armidale, New South Wales, Australia
By ArmidaleSmurfs on 10-Mar-18. Waypoint GC7KAFR

This cache has been muggled for the umpteenth time. Time to put energies into a new one

Had a quick look, but no luck, maybe the CO needs to come past and check or consider archiving if it keeps getting muggled

Tried really hard, but...nope

Not anywhere to be found

No luck here today. Think we know where it should have been but looks like it might have gone. Probably worth checking it's still there.

Tamworth and Amrmidale Trip March 2020. Day 5. I headed north with Fitzy_1965 along the New England Highway towards Tamworth. Today we moved north to Armidale, but not in a straight line. The day was mostly roadside caches, but they were all of differing levels of challenges, especially when you have to deal with Farmers Friends and Stinging Nettles at almost every cache.

Thanks for the cache ArmidaleSmurfs

Day 5 of our trip. Packed up the rather wet campsite and headed out after breakfast for what turned out to be another big days caching. We aimed to cache our way up to Armidale. Next stop of the day, and we came up with a quick find on this nicely placed cache. Signed the log, replaced the cache, then headed off to the next one.

**# 25688** Found on our 2019 winter escape trip to Qld with Mrs Roosta.
A perfect Spring day for another drive around the countryside while at Armidale.
Some nice country roads around here and lots of dry country too.
Hardly any muggles around and mostly good safe hides.
An excellent cache and a favourite point from me.
Thanks for the cache ArmidaleSmurfs,

I never watched the series but soon found the good cache.

This has been muggled. We will replace as soon as we figure out a better way of keeping it there!

DNF here today, will try again another time.

Woe is me I DNF

Searched for this one for quite awhile but could not find it

found on a caching day around armidale. thanks

The sun was low
The light was dim
I found this cache
Just on a whim

Thank you

Quick find in the dark by the phone light. Then took a few minutes to come up with a haiku for the log. Finally, I read ALL of the instructions which asked for rhyming Cool cache, thanks for the bit of fun!

A day of Geocaching, TFTC

Nice hide. Kids enjoyed the cache. Well done indeed.

A good hide

Encouraged to write a poem, I wrote a quick limmerick, detailing our DNF & Smileys todayTFTC

Read the books but have not watched the show. Thanks for this one

With our base established at Uralla we headed out to different surrounding localities finding caches as we went. We enjoyed exploring the area and this was one we (us and Snakepiters) targetted and found. Thanks to ArmidaleSmurfs for hiding this cache and adding to our enjoyment of the area.

After the last two hectic days caching, and easier one today just picking up a few in and around town.

Found it so fun

Yay! Well placed, and in an interesting spot! Had to unsuspiciously keep walking after rooting it due to muggled but came back and snavled it upThanks for this cool cache!

Quick park and grab. Tftc.

Lol. Excellent name for the cache. Spotted a suspicious looking hide and soon had CIH. TFTC!

Had to google the hint as we haven't watched this series.

Hi there ArmidaleSmurfs.

Travelled from Stanthorpe to Armidale today, actually the wind blew us most of the way. We lost an hour due to daylight saving, but that's a good thing because we can now get up with the sun at a reasonable hour.

All up we found 4 caches & DNF'd 2 in this cache run. Thanks for placing the cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places while we meander around Australia.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache about 5m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Nothing.
**Dropped Trackable:** "Geocaching Holiday Tag".


Regards

Ian & Penny.

I have been to this park 4 times this fortnight and it Was packed every time, except today! I looked at the spot a dozen times and finally
Managed to snatch it. Great condition and left a pathtag! Thanks

Found at 10:39 AM GAFF1.
Pretty sure we found a cache in this same spot a few years ago - can still see the piece of string that held the container. No one around so managed to retrieve the cache straight away.
Thanks ArmidaleSmurfs.

A very clever hide with good co-ords. SL TFTC

Found it. I had to google the name of the episode and after that everything clicked into place. Signed Log. TFTC

Spent a couple of days in the Armidale district with geoson. Enjoyed the challenges. Found it TFTC

Spending a couple of days caching in Armidale with Geodad Whitey Wiskas, cold and wet but we're having fun ..

All Good .. TFTC ..

Our 2nd nights at a farm stay, today we headed to Armidale to find a few caches that have been placed since we were here previously.
This was a great way to visit the city & some outlying farming countryside. A good variety of hides & caches found.
I'm sure we have found a similar cache to this at a previous visit.
Thanks for placing this cache ArmidaleSmurfs

Pretty sure I knew where this was lurking. Wasn't expecting a literary challenge though - and not one of my best efforts. First cache i've found since losing my GPS TFTC Armidalesmurfs

Checked cache, all in place and hiding nicely! Thanks to all for putting it back properly after you have found it

Awesome little find. Have to come back with a pen

TFTC, ArmidaleSmurfs, SL,
My find # 55

Caching with Wanda Wombat today.

The day was windy,
We struggled on bravely still,
How sweet is success

TFTC, ArmidaleSmurfs, TNLNSL.
My cache no. 599

We felt conspicious here but no one noticed us which was a bonus for finding the sneaky cache and container SL, TFTC

It must be my lucky day. It was in the first place I looked.

A nice easy cache- love the clue and found the goods in no time. Left a message in the log. TFTC

Thanks ArmSmurfs for the cache in this place
FurstyFerret invoked me to search on my own
He had found it before and left no trace
So I had to succeed or leave with a frown


TFTC TNLN

Very quite here this MOTHER'S DAY morning 0715 hrs!!! Happy mum's day mums.. Thanks Armidale Smurfs ...

I haven't seen Game of Thrones so didn't understand the significance of the cache name or hint. Not too many places to hide a cache so it was an easy find. Thanks ArmidaleSmurfs.

TFTC

Tftc, quick easy find at night to avoid the muggles.

We love Game of Thrones, but couldn’t recall the hint, although that didn’t hinder a thing as the coordinates led us straight to GZ and no muggles meant an easy grab. Took a moment to come up with a poem at the nearby table

TFTC

Got him!

Nice pun.

It would appear we found it not in its correct spot hopefully groovy found it after us and hid it. Sorry Armidale Smurfs but didn't realise till today when reading old logs. We did wonder how it didn't get muggled.
From afar we came
Just playing a game
We signed the log
Then fell in a bog.
Found with Staybe and Co log signed SO or OS we tended to get ourselves confused. 3132 9:05:00 AM ArmidaleSmurfs without cachers like you we would have no game. Thank you. TNLN SL

Was here once before with an old cache. Found the string broken and cache sitting in view. Replaced bit more out of sight. Took Nothing Left nothing sl

Took Nothing Left nothing sl

Thanks GroovyDoo for the update. We are away for another week or 2. As soon as we are home we will sort it! Thanks for replacing out of sight

Our final day of a 3 day weekend caching in and around Armidale with Ozglory.

Today was sadly our final day.

How does this cache not get muggled??!!

Our poem :-

Today was our last day in Armidale
And the caching had not yet gone stale
We were so glad this was a nice quick find
Now we can leave Armidale behind

Thanks for placing the cache! We appreciate it.

Some logs may be signed O&S to represent Ozglory and Staybe & Co.

Out for dinner at the nearby pub we thought we would check to see if there was a cache nearby, sure enough there was - after a quick find BeckNmonts was a little bit apprehensive to grab the cache so I came to the rescue and grabbed it myself- not very often I get this opportunity TFTC ArmidaleSmurfs, I really enjoyed it!

An after dinner light hearted comment that it would be funny if there was a cache right here, resulted in us... finding this cache, right here! LouLou told some fibs in her log, but it made for a good story! I’m not sure that the cache was in the correct position as it was in plain sight, the co might want to check it. TFTC ArmidaleSmurfs

Visiting Armidale from Newcastle. Used to live nearby and we try to keep up with the newer caches. There are still one or two left to find. This one has been intriguing me from afar for a while.

Thanks for the cache ArmidaleSmurfs. Took nothing, left nothing, signed the log and then pressed on.

Nicely hidden, found it, signed it and put it back away TFTC

Great spot found quickly

We don't know the Game of Thrones but we did know the likely spot this cache would be hidden so that's where we went first. Good hide..... an ordinary bit of camo to act as muggle repellant.....we like it. [^] TFTC ArmidaleSmurfs.

Could only have been in one place, nice hide

left : nothing

Thanks for the cache ArmidaleSmurfs

Arrived at our indicated GZ and was confronted by a blank brick wall. Moved a bit further around and spotted a likely spot and so it was. All good here. Thanks smurfs
