#13,789. The run up to Christmas has been seriously busy at work and I haven't managed to do any geocaching for over a week. But I am now on Christmas leave and I needed a road trip to help me put work matters behind me. My main aim today was to get some solved puzzles near Feilding, do an adlab and pick up any other caches along the route that took my fancy. I was heading to my next solved puzzle when I saw this one was on the route. So stopped for a look and found the tiny container after a short search. Signed the logbook and replaced the cache as found. Thanks BrolgaandTui for hiding it here.

By the time I got to this cache it was definitely time to sit so I could take off a layer and pack it in my pack (it had started off cold (colder than I am used to) but the sun came out in force). After having done that and taking a moment to eat a mandarin I looked for the cache. Turns out it was in the first spot I looked so that was a bonus. Thanks for placing BrolgaandTui!

Awesome container. Like it. We sat but didn’t wait too long. Saturday afternoon did not demand too much stealth from us. Now for a petrol station. TFTC

I was in Friendly Fielding today for a friend's son's funeral and had a few minutes to spare afterwards.
This was a quick find once I scooted to the other end.
I've not seen this particular variation of this container before. The scored edge of the lid made it a lot easier to open than others I've found.

5 February 2022 10:24. First find of the day after a couple of DNF's (later avenged). No such problems here, TFTC

I had been close to this cache recently whilst checking out a nearby house for sale. Parked back the way a ;ittle and headed to shelter. The tactile method was the charm and my name was soon added to the log, and replaced as found. T F T C BrolgaandTui.

After a productive day in my new workplace I was keen to break the shackles of my boring digs and head to Feilding to buy a desk fan, and maybe pick up a couple of caches whilst in the area. When I headed south to Blenheim 8 years ago I'd found almost all of the local caches but have been watching the steady repopulation of previous sites, as well as new areas of interest.
Just the 2 finds, I made a mess of a Multi and failed to gather the simple details required for a find, will be back though to redeem myself!

Having had a brilliant day yesterday ushering in Daylight Saving for this year, I had today off work to be able to attend an event in Palmy and also to go out and find a reasonable number of caches to fulfill my personal goal of finding X caches every single month. I've pretty much cached out my immediate locale so I'm having to go further and further afield to find caches, so found myself in Feilding for a few hours.

When I saw the approximate GZ, I hoped this was going to be a quick park n grab. And it was exactly that, finding the cache exactly as Hinted at. No issues with the log, which was signed and everything replaced as found before I strolled back to the car to head off for another Smile

Thanks for placing this cache.

For this cache I was hoping that no one was at the bus stop, I could quickly put my hands on the cache and that a bus wouldn't stop thinking I wanted a ride. Tick, Tick and Tick.
