##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 you

Spotted easily on approach just sitting there. No log in cache. Added an old shopping docket. And the magnet was not able to be used to attach it to the post. TFTC

Found at dusk after a long day at work.
I arrived in the fading light and thankfully had the park to myself.
I didn’t really understand the clue but i was still able to find the cache after only a couple of minutes search. It had fallen on the ground so after performing the signing duties replaced it in the spot i think it dropped from.
Thanks.

Quick and nice find. Got me into the garden which I’ve walked past multiple times but somehow hadn’t seen! Good place for a quick find. Macy and Charlie.

First attempt was thwarted by two people there with their children...how dare they. I went for a short drive and came back to find the place empty. TFTC

Found it but unfortunately there was no bin in the park so lots of litter

Very late log, sorry.

I was just looking on the map for unfound caches to find after restrictions are eased and stumbed across this one, unlogged. I found this in mid to late January. Sorry about that.

I was on my way to do some yard work for someone and I was going to arrive 30 early so I decide to find this cache on the way. The mozzies got the best of me. Found it with relative easy. Nice little cache.

I once again made the error of caching at dusk, despite the recent logs mentioning the large number of mosquitoes.

I sprayed myself with copious amounts of bug spray, but still the swarm persisted.
A special mention to the one that managed to bite me on the eyebrow, that won’t be irritating when it starts to itch.

Despite the fading light, and my insect problems, I made my way to the GZ, where I fairly quickly spied the hide.
Tftc.

Stopped off at this newish one in Manly Vale, after dropping geoson#1 off at the nearby B-Line bus stop, and was lucky to get a parking spot right out front of the playground & gardens. Geomum & geoson#1 are both HUGE Doctor Who fans, with geomum having been a fan since the early 1970’s, so it’s always nice to see another DW themed cache appear in the game.

Headed over to GZ and, whilst fighting off the hoards of hungry mozzies, made a quick find of the cache container. TNLNSL, and then replaced as found. We then took a stroll around the community gardens, before heading to Manly Dam to check out the high water mark following the recent heavy rains, which turned out to be quite impressive. TFTC FamilyBcache, and congratulations on your first cache placement.

Top little garden with not a muggle to be seen this morning. With the welcome damp weather, the mosquitos are back. I gave blood to one who gave it back up when I swatted him. He ended up on my leg not the wall. SL TFTC Cheers... Gaztek

Any geocache celebrating Dr Who, no matter how remotely, goes on my to-do list, and today I got a chance to be in Manly Vale. I never knew this little community garden existed!! The whole area was full today of children in vacation care. They were all doing their own thing, happily, and I managed to find the cache and sign the log without getting noticed at all.

Thank you, FamylyBcache.

(PS Having read the logs in advance, and noted the description, I came slathered in mossie repellant - but didn't see/feel a single bitie bug. )

A quick find. SL while being bitten by mossies. OCW MaxAdventurer. Smile TFTC FamilyBcache

#6868 (3 of 5 today)

I have to be at the ABC this afternoon for this week's taping of WHOVIANS.
So if I want some finds I need to grab them early. So after dropping off Geoson #2 at the station continued on to an area I could get a few finds.

Managed to race home afterwards, then race back out to the TV studio. Busy day.
###END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION###
Given my Doctor Who activities this afternoon, finding this recent placement was a no brainer.

Unfortunately I found it on the ground.
Signed, and replaced where I thought it should go.
Gets a favourite for the DW connection and the nice artwork on the container.
Also added the cache to my list of Doctor Who caches in the Sydney area.

How exciting. This was our first geocache in our backyard. We are members of the community garden. Geocaching makes you look at your surroundings in a fresh way. Thanks for your contribution.
 
09-Jan-20
Thanks for that one - fairly straight forward.
 
09-Jan-20
Great place to hide it!
Had a very fun time!
 
07-Jan-20
Well I must be the only person in Oz who has not watched Dr Who so I never know if you need knowledge of him/the show to help find the cache.

Does he like mosquitoes?
There's plenty here.

I parked in Innes Rd and made my way through the community garden, past the children's playground which was being well utilised this morning. Some of the children were helping to fertilise the plants (if you know what I mean) and the mother's did nothing to clean up!

I just pretended I was inspecting the tree for safety and soon had CIH. SL and replaced.
By the way this is a micro, not a small.

An exciting playground location was reached after a quick detour on the way to PelDroedGwin’s football match.

A quick grab here

Left the house to get some air, even though it was not so fresh due to the smoke, and also to find the first caches for the new year.
Parked in Lovett Street, and had some trouble finding the right way to the right location. Once there, we were undisturbed by a couple of muggles who got on with their things.
Found the cache where the GPS finally led us.

Thanks for the great cache. Keep on geo cacheing.

A very nice little park and playground hidden away from view. Did have to kill a few mossies though.
