With dot558 on our way to Meredith camp ground when we saw these Thanks for the distraction
Found with Sunsong1, out of the car and try to find the cache as quickly as possible as the weather is wild with strong wind and sideways rain off and on. Thanks for the cache Tritonz
Down the surfcoast today to host an event in Torquay. Of course there was caching afterwards. We have been wanting to pick these up for some time, so it was a must after the event before the rain came. The weather was perfect and all caches were found in good condition. The 1st in the series, but the last trad as I did it in reverse. Great to catch up with some new cachers along the way too.Now to make sure I picked up all the clues for the final. Thanks The_Tritonz for creating for us all to enjoy. --------------------------------------------------------The nominees for the [**2023 Victorian Cache of the Year Awards** ](https://geocachingvictoria.com.au/2023-victorian-cache-of-the-year-awards/) have been announced.

On an outing to get this series today between school drop offs. 1st for the day. TFTC
Heading to Geelong for the last few days of my trip as haven't cached this area. Heading for an event in town.
Out on Easter Monday for some caching with Jonescrew. We even came across another catcher on the way who was skipping the micros because he didn't like micros, we told him the micros in this series weren't the traditional micro size. The weather held off for most of the morning and then thunder and pelting rain. We had fun and didn't get too wet. This series has been on my list for a long while, even though I'm not a huge Dr Who fan. We liked the varied caches found in this series. Thanks for the effort and creativity. This one was a cool cache container, don't get to see many of these. TFTC.
Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me. Happy birthday to me happy birthday to me. Heading down for a long weekend away, we stopped to grab this one - the first for the day and for me. The clue is not accurate.
We started this series on the 29th of Feb for the leap day souvenir. So we came back today to finish the traditionals of this series.We had alot of fun with these as some were able to be spotted from the car so the excitement of the kids yelling found it made it really enjoyable.Cache in good condition and put back the same way we found it ready for the next geocaching adventurer to find.Thanks The_Tritonz for placing another hide for us to find.
Wow, this must of taken a long time to print.And a app design for William Hartnell, he like his alcohol I believe.Out caching with D@geoThank you for the cache The_Tritonz
Found with gwd.aussie on a caching roadtrip to Geelong. Couldn't pass up a Dr Who themed series even though as a child my parents would not allow me to watch.Thanks The_Tritonz
Found on a typical Summer day with Roostaman and friends, on a a short trip to Vic. . Lots of travelling and caches as well. Thanks for the cache The_Tritonz, ***MrsRoosta***
Found on a short Vic trip with MrsRoosta and friends. We had an excellent adventure around the Geelong area.Great series and containers. Thanks for placing and maintaining this cachefor all of us to find, The_Tritonz, ***Roostaman***
Decided to head down to do this series which Ive heard great accolades about and after having chatted with the CO the previous day. A great way to start the year, although I do believe I may have set my standards a bit high too early!Thanks The_Tritonz for bringing me here and contributing to this great game for myself and others to enjoy. Happy trails, Deanside
First in the series today. Great residence opposite. Wow. No Tardis tho? Im sure they could afford one! Made sure I didnt Blink to find this series. Another well layered cache - excellent work.

Well The-Tritonz you certainly did not disappoint with the first cache container here.Looks like its just as well that I came with a Christmas stocking full of favourite points as it looks like it will be going home empty if this is an example of what is to come.Ronice88, KBucky and I were all very impressed.And of course another very well deserved favourite point here from me.
Today I was lucky to be with the awesome Cybergran V and Ronice 88. Yes Val, we are very glad we listened to you and did this DR Who series. All fabulous and no Grinch's. This one definitely my favourite.Although........we only remembered a few caches down the road to get the clues for the mystery final. All good as location is so accessible. Thanks The_Tritonz, your caches are amazing.regardskbucky
Time to tackle Time Lords is the consensus. Who would say who's Dr Who? At least who remembers Hartnell's WHO forgetting lines? Decades of familiarity with Dr Who's has made this series a fun trip down memory lane with this hub of caches. I dont remember this Doctor Who but then whose worried as trivia is part of the game. Spending the day with CybergranV, and kbucky on a mad schedule that includes 4 events so these were first off the rank and likely #1 target for the enthusiastic cybergranV. Loved the variety and impressed with The_Tritonz printing skills. Thanks for the top concept that had us anticipating whats next for each one.
Found it! Ive been saving these ones. Going for the full set today, in honour of the return of the series. Bug Doctor Who fan. I have the littlest geokid in the car. Lets see how far we get!
Nice easy find for this one, happened to pull up right in front of itLogs a bit damp but still easy to write on
Visiting my halfmugglemum for 6 weeks since moving to the US. Getting some geocaches done while im in the area. Nice find. Glad a new series was added to this area ??
Great series hoping to finish it tonight second night at it weather much better tonight TFTC SLTNLN

"Quick" geocaching detour while shopping in Waurn Ponds. Easy find in a neat container. TFTC!
A CITO in Geelong at the start of the day provided the impetus to come down and find some caches in the Surf Coast LGA so I could tick off another LGA in the quest of completing a couple of challenges.
With my targets for finding Surf Coast LGA caches met... and plenty of time on my hands... I kept on going north to finish off this series.
While I can truly say that I have seen every episode since the show's rebirth in 2005, I can't claim to be the greatest fan as I haven't watched all the original series... but I did watch it when it was first aired in Australia... and can still remember bits of the first episode (and that's showing my age...)
Thanks to **The_Tritonz** for putting this series out.

Ok so I’ve given myself an hour before work to complete this series and learn a bit about doctor who, I watched a few episodes as a kid but don’t really remember it now, might be inspired to watch after this great container! TFTC
Found with lindahe on our way to Port Campbell today. We logged as minimixb to save time and space. Tftc and greetings from Norway
I decided to try to complete this series in one attempt rather than return on multiple occasions. It was a great experience with nice a roadside hide. TFTC.
Found on our way past today while touring around the area. Enjoyed finding this time lords trail here as well as the bonus cache. Some really cool 3D printed hides which we haven’t seen before. All were found pretty quickly thanks to good coords and simple hides. Cheers for the enjoyable trail.
Find #5276 on 5 Feb 2023.
TFTC The_Tritonz!

GMelb had a meeting at 96three FM this morning (Fri) so we decided to make a mini break out of it and stay a night here, so of course caching was on the agenda for the arvo. With it raining on and off quite a bit we canned our idea of walking the AB4C caches and decided to do drive bys instead, close to where we were going to be checking in. MMelb created a puzzle based on this tv show called Physician Anonymous and his favourite TL is the 9th - Christopher Eccleston. GMelb quite likes it, but it does nothing for me (JMelb) lol
Cache was very impressive and a nice easy find and clue was noted.

We had some navigational issues this afternoon and drove right past this one initially!
After waiting for a cyclist to pass, we backed up and soon had the cache in hand.
Very much liked the container! Looking forward to what the rest of the series will bring!
Name added to the log and everything replaced as found.

He will always be THE Doctor. I even tracked down a copy of "An Unearthly Child" which, for some reason, was never broadcast with the rest of the series in the early 1960s. Watching a science fiction show in glorious black and white never bothered me. Anyhow! Today was a grandfather, granddaughter joint expedition. After some initial fun ("I'm sure north is that way ...") the cache was in hand. Thanks for the cache, and the idea of the series.
I've been eyeing off this series for some time wondering when I'd get a chance to have a shot at it. Tonight though, I had a couple of hours to spare before the M&P Joker pickup and that was good enough for an attempt. This was first of the bunch and was a nice quick find at 17:15 and I was away.
TNLNSL noted clue and our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks The_Tritonz.

This was the last one & a big admiration for the construction on this container. A few bike riders rolled pass but they had no idea ... perhaps that's because l am a ninja. Well done guys another fav from me
OzzieBear & MrSnoop found this cache afternoon. It was very impressive. We have been in recess for quite a few years & were very keen to start off again with a great string of Traditional Caches. TFTC
Discovered this Time Lord Trail and decided today would be the day. Found this great cache and signed the log. We too are Doctor Who fans so this requires a fav from us.
We are visiting Geelong today to catch up with friends despite the forecasted rain. We attempted a nearby series and gave up partly due to the rain and partly due to the surprisingly busy back road. After checking the map we discovered the Time Lords series .. I was thoroughly wet already so we decided, let’s do it anyway .. the road was quiet so it felt safe to continue… all the caches were quickly found due to spot on coordinates. I was really impressed with all the caches .. especially the sistemas in their special holder.. please excuse the cut and paste logs .. we are currently in McDonald’s drying out and it is almost time to move on… and in my efforts to protect the logs from getting wet I neglected to notice clues for the final .. oh well! ..I have been a fan of Doctor Who since the first episode .. (yes I’m that old) William Hartnell was the first doctor and although I loved the storyline, he scared me a little more than the other characters LOL. Thanks The Tritonz for the series.
Down this way on holidays and thought I'd target this series one afternoon before the light faded and was not disappointed.
I remember watching various episodes of the original series of Doctor Who on the ABC as a kid without ever really having a favourite Doctor. However with the modern continuation of the series I got right into the show and have watched most of the episodes. I've liked all the actors portraying the Doctor in the new series but I think Matt Smith is probably my favourite.
I loved all the containers that had been created, I think the Doctor would have approved. Thanks for the series The Tritonz.

After attending Bushfire's event and grabbing some lunch in Highton, this series was our target for today while we were in the area. We both certainly remember watching Dr Who on the telly. Loved all the nicely made caches that made this series a pleasure to find. TFTC TheTritonz.
Enjoyed caching today picking up your Time Lord series. Out and about before the weather heated up. Clever caches and all were in good condition tftc
Wozz and I had decided earlier in the week that today looked like the best day weather wise to do a spot of caching. We decided that this series looked like good a day out and we were right. The quality and variety of hides in this series was excellent and the coords and hints were spot on. Great job L&C.
Now I am not a Dr Who super fan. In fact for my money there was only one Doctor and that was Tom Baker. Who could forget his long scarf and his mop of curly hair. I remember watching episodes on the ABC when I was a kid and being scared witless of the Daleks. Exterminate! Exterminate!
Fantastic container here.
Thanks for placing and setting up this brilliant series.

First of the day with Glanville Girls this morning on our planned caching trip to this series.
I don't normally drink at this time of the day, but if you insist! I'm sure it's 5 somewhere right?

Found It.........After finishing lunch on Mrs H_3's birthday it was decided to venture down Moriac way to clean up some of the caches that had built up in the area that we hadn't got yet. Once we arrived at GZ we had a quick look and bingo we had the container in hand. So with the log signed we continued our journey around the area. Thanks The Tritonz for all of the effort that has gone into these caches
After working for a few hours this morning, I decided it was just too nice of a day to go home and do nothing. The Time Lords series was recommended to me by a couple of cachers and today was the day to check it out. I'll admit, I've never watched Doctor Who!!! Maybe I should, it sounds quite interesting.
I saw a hint of green at GZ and sure enough it was the cache. I love the effort that has gone into making these. I grabbed the clue and put the cache back. A great start to the series. TFTC

It's hard to believe that, together with the youngest member of the Toy Hunters team, we started this series only last year. However, it was really almost two years ago: In 2020, the 11th of January was a day of a concert "on the Green", and we could not complete the three northern-most hides of Dr Who. We waited for our friends to return last summer, with these three hides at the top of our to-do-list. Just as our friend was about to come to our place, a lockdown from midnight onwards was announced, and the ACT-based family rushed away to get to the NSW border, avoiding getting caught in Victoria.
Fast-forward to today: The three of us have met up again, with the Time Lords being the top of our priority list. Lo and behold, we made it! Almost 2 years after we started this trail and almost 10 years since we first met the Toy Hunters. Hooray!
A different kind of time travel than the Doctor would have performed.

Well this one was a long time coming! I and suss vulture completed most of the series in Jan 2020 but the first three caches were blocked off because of Cold Chisel performing at ‘Day on the Greens’. Us innocent souls just said “let’s wait until I come back in September to finish the caches ”. Well of course with a one in 100 year pandemic September became February. Then literally 30min before we were to meet up and drive to these caches Mr Dan Andrews announced Vic lockdown no. 3 which meant our family had to rush back to the ACT by 11:59 to avoid quarantine. So February then became December where finally, we were now able to reunite. I feel so thankful that we’ve now been able to see our family and friends in Geelong after 23 months. And getting these last three caches in the series meant a great sense of finality. Awesome container quality as was consistent with the rest of the series. TFTC The_Tritonz!
Heading down to Portland for our annual family Xmas get together we decided to leave a bit early and grab a few caches and we had been eyeing this series off for awhile and we are so glad that we did. This was a top series and the workmanship on the containers was excellent.
We were expecting a bit more traffic around being Xmas but we only saw one other car for the entire series. We only had a little trouble with two of the hides but only because of blind old eyes and we found all of the co-ords spot on as is usual with The_Tritonz hides.
We apologise for the generic log but we can say that we really enjoyed every hide and they all get a well earned favourite point.
Many thanks The_Tritonz for the effort in putting this series out and the containers and hides as well as very interesting cache pages.

A quick detour from the highway on our way through this afternoon to start this series. Wow, their this cache is any indication, this is a ripper series. Thanks The Tritonz, I am very much looking forward to slowly making my way through.
