16:08Even though it is carrying 3 consecutive DNF events and has been Disabled by a Reviewer, we thought we'd have a look. Well, we looked high, we looked low, we looked in, we looked out, but today there was no way we could work this one out!Unfortunately this 1.5/1.5 Regular didn't want to show itself to us today, even though we spent more than the suggested 10-15 minutes looking for the cache ! We're a tipp'n it's a miss'n.Anyway, thanks Sillyyouuuu for bringing us to this location. *This log composed and published using Geocaching Swiss Army Knife (GSAK).*

This took us to a food stall , sent us to the middle of the grass and cache was not there or anywhere to be found. I agree with last person, very confusing. Seems a cache was put here so people stop and buy your produce.
This had us totally confused. GZ had us in the middle of the lawn and although we looked in the surrounding area, we could not find the cache.

We were a bit confused by this cache but looking in the logic location the cache was spotted. Hint does not apply anymore.Thanks jimmdaboss for the placement.
Loved this cash almost didnt find it because of a log but thats ok its to hind it from muggles TFTC (I traded a smiley face badge for a bracelet loved it)
Out on a nice drive, after reading that the GZ was a bit off, the cache was soon found in an obvious spot. Thanks for the cache.
TFTC. Found on the way home after a lovely swim at Loden Falls. Yes, the coordinates were off but fortunately, it was a very good description. I advise following that. Lucky I have long arms.
Found It!Odd spot for the cache. Found it after reading some of the past logs.TFTC
This was a tricky one but lucky for my brave husband who explored a little further. The coordinates were a bit off Thankyou for the cache.
Second day, Benalla to Ballarat. Beautiful start of the day, lots of caches and labs. Thanks to all the CO for their hides. J+J.au

Found it with Sleepy205. Father/son combo visiting from Bellingham, Washington State (south of Vancouver, Canada / north of Seattle). TFTC
Easy find given all of the hints in the description. The hardest part was definitely the retrieval. Picked up a travel bug for my troubles Left a pathtag. TFTC. Another day filled on my caching calendar.
The gps was not settling and was slightly off and I was confused by the hint. TFTC dropped trackable
Had a look around but the adjacent property is doing some boundary restoration, I'm not sure if this hindered my find today

On my way to the 21st Anniversary of Events in Victoria...
Well, that was an experience. I'm glad I carry gloves for this kind of hide.
Found in better shape than I was by the time I got back in my car.
Thanks, jimmdaboss.

Found two containers. The original (broken) one and the replacement on top of the other.
We found this on our drive today from Ballarat to Wangaratta. It was a good opportunity to stop and stretch our legs on the drive.
After some searching, we re-interpreted the clues and found this one hiding in a deep hole.

The coordinates for this one were a bit out and thanks to a previous finders log I manage to find the cache
Quick park and grab as we pass through on way to NSW. Cache container needs replacing.
Once we realised the 40 sign was a no horse riding sign we soon had it. Thanks for the cache!
A trip to check out all the awesome places in eastern Victoria. TFTC.
That is quite a way down. Managed to reach.

E.wing maybe able to fly normally, but not when it’s waterlogged!!
Found a broken container, half full of mud and water with treasures and possibly a log book saturated inside. I had a container and new log book in my chariot so I placed them with the sodden cache so future finders can sign a log.

Keep smiling

I put as much effort into finding this cache as it deserves, usually if it’s got dodgy clues and coords and is damaged I will do it all in a fast manner. Thx for giving me a reason to stretch ma legs.
In Victoria to visit Lady membsec’s mum and our daughter was completing in an orienteering event. We managed to find a big hole and eventually pulled out a damaged container. The log book was very damp but we managed to sign our name!

Found broken. Not to hard to find though there is no 40 sign anymore it’s been replaced with a no horse riding sign. It was in a very deep hole so we could not reach it.
Out with gridge98 for the a weekend trip to melbourne to watch the footy, excellent trip away, thanks for hiding.
Passed this one on our way through today, unfortunately this cache is rather wet and could do with a fix up
This weekend we headed to Melbourne for a 3 day road trip to watch the lions take on the demons at the MCG in the semi finals plus catch up with family for the weekend, couldn't resist but add some caches to the tally for the trip as well.

We saw the cache as soon as we pulled up although honestly it didn't look much different than most of the rubbish lying around, the log was absolutely soaked through and I had to tip a centimetre of water out of the container! I don't think this container is as "water proof" as the description claims! Perhaps this cache needs a little bit of TLC? TFTC
I think the cache may have been moved. There is a really big hole near it and the log was really water logged. So needs some tlc.
Thanks for the find

Went for a nice quick day trip with docNwitchjy and decided to try caches out this way. TFTC
I stopped by here while on the way to today's walk out of Lyonville. It had me going for a while and the hint made no sense but I finally spotted the hide at 09:35 about 20 meters away from where 2upoj was telling me it was.
The cache hint and coordinates could do with some 'tidying up'.
TNLNSL, although a our BYO pen geocoin had a visit to mark the occasion. Thanks jimmdaboss.

Good found just logged my name and didn’t take anything was pretty easy to find in a small circular box with a blue lid. The location is a few metres wrong just walk 20 metres east from the marker and it will be there hiding up against the fence. No 40 sign nearby though.
Visited here a long time ago and had no success so was shocked when I walked straight up to it. Maybe my eyes are getting sharper ( which I'd doubt). Woohoo, another smiley for the day
Once i read back through some logs to clarify some of the information i soon had the little fella in hand.
Spotted straight away. The traffic was noisy. Busy at Tylden. Lovely tree at corner.
A chilly day in Trentham today.
Previous logs made for a quick find today.
Thanks jimmdaboss
Left swap.

Travelling through today we stopped to grab his cache. After having trouble at GZ I read some earlier logs and I too found the cache 20m east of where my needle was pointing. Thanks jimmdaboss.
Well second time lucky for me, first time I looked everywhere but the right place and today I gave up on the coords and just thought where would I hide a cache.
Well that wasn’t it either, then ahhh there it is………nope that’s just a really cool looking stump.
Walk back to the car then it dawned on me and soon had it in hand.
Thanks for the hunt.

Don’t be blue if you don’t see it straight away, I promise it is there, even if the coordinates are off. TFTC
The last time we passed by here old mate was out in his yard.
As we slowed down he gave us the E.vil E.ye - so we drove off without taking a look.
**Today...**
A deserted area made for a nice (albeit protracted) search.
We looked down
We looked up
We even looked in the tree
We looked for the 40 sign (but hadn't read your earlier log)
We thought '*If I were to place a 40 sign here, where would it go?*'
And there it was! The cache. Right where you said it was hidden.
Ok - the coordinates put us around the corner, but hey! The cache name suggested otherwise.
So good to grab a smiley face here today.
Sorry we didn't have a bag of toys with us. Perhaps next time we're passing by.
***Found with +Wife and our GeoMutts, EveTheStaffy and Max TheCollie.***

TFTC coordinates are a bit off and the thorns are HUGE but we fought our way through
There used to be fun little toys in it but some no lifer has taken all of the things, used to be a container full of surprises for people to find… sadly no one has swapped there toy for the toys that were in it now it’s just the log book

Heading out of Melbourne for a bit of a break, first stop was Castlemaine, then onto Hepburn Springs for a few days and the next stop was Heathcote.
Heaps of caches around here, Castlemaine has plenty around abandoned mines so managed to increase a few attributes here.
Next stop was the springs of Hepburn and Daylesford, lots of water falls and mineral springs to visit..and then onto exploring and collecting some caches around Heathcote.
Spent a lot of time visiting the historic sites and finding the surrounding caches.
My coordinates were a bit off here... eventually found the cache.. and then took an age getting the lid off...
Thanks for the cache and the hide.
Log book has been signed and returned

TFTC. Thank goodness at last I have got a smiley for this one. Tried a few times but could never find it.
Found it
Sadly the TB was not inside. Covered it up, as it was obvious as I approached container.

One day out on parole from Covid lockdown for us country folk allowed us to visit country towns and support businesses. Was a glorious day with full sunshine to soak up 7 geocaches for the day. Found @ 2:34pm by AK. Co-ords out a bit.
No luck after a good long look, even after following other's directions about the maybe off coordinates. Hint didn't really help but I was afraid to cross the road + probably wasn't thinking haha. Will try again some other time if I pass through.
We found this cache OK, but didn’t take note of the warning re thorns. A few bits of skin missing but still managed to sign the log. Thanks jimmdaboss.
In town to pick up a camper trailer, and we introduced the owners to Geocaching.
They followed us to the two local caches, and they seem very keen to join up.
Searched for some time before finding the hide 20m east of GZ.
Many thanks for placing this cache, jimmdaboss, for us and others to find.

The Drovers had come down from New South Wales and we decided to meet them and do a little bit of caching in the area.
We pulled up here with a couple of potential new geocachers and headed off to where the gpsr's were pointing and came away empty handed. We decoded the clue which didn't help us at all as it seems that it is now gone so we simply expanded our search and a short time later we found the cache in a likely location and happily added our names to the log.
Many thanks jimmdaboss, there certainly were a lot of rumbling engines today.

A very happy Australia Day to all the caching community out there.
After a couple of very hot days, we headed northwest of home to unsuccessfully try to get behind the mist and drizzle that had settled on Sunbury but we still arrived home damp.
Another nice large container, a pleasant change from so many we find these days.
