I was swaying whether to archive or move the cache, but when I went there today to collect it, it was already missing. Decision made then, I will archive it.
Temporarily disabled due to some concerns from finders over the final placement of the cache. I am disabling it for now until I decide whether to re-hide elsewhere or archive.
I remember when this puzzle came out, I couldn't work out what the clues were. There were a few words that I could make out, and then I made the connection. From there, I managed to find a sufficient number until a set of letters thus numbers emerged. However, I had one extra letter that I couldn't resolve? After continuing to study the puzzle, I ended up reaching out to a past Finder, who helped to narrow down the required numbers hence coordinates.
Whilst returning back from the western suburbs / West Beach, I decided to call past this location. This one took a little time to look for, and then eventually made the find. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. Note that this cache size is more micro than small. Thanks ollywollydoodle for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

Found It!
An interesting little puzzle that didn't take me too long to work out. Did you know that Robe backwards is Ebor? Then went to GZ today and found the cache in the first place I looked!

Owl a bit of spare time on her hands after an errand, so decided to find a cache. Got to GZ and wondered if she'd input the numbers correctly, de3spite the geochecker, and PaFed to confirm the location. Not a comfortable feeling, especially as her GPS had her at a different house, but it was there.
Took me a little while to work out what I was looking for, but once I did that it was reasonably easy to work through. Like others I did think I had a spare letter, but I found a place for it and then I got a green tick.
I was out and about today and stopped here in between showers of rain to look for the cache. Luckily it was soon found, the log stamped and I was back in the warm dry car. [^]

Who wakes up at 4.30am to attend an event at North Adelaide[?] OK, the alarm woke me[|)][xx(][|)] but it sure took me a while to make up my mind to go
Finally got out of the house and arrived at the event at 5.35am
Had breakfast[^] and then Rex and I went caching as I needed a puzzle cache today
Took Rex to a new dog park where he had a blast with a few other dogs[^]
Back home for a nap[|)] before picking up chrispy89 and taking him to a caching event tea at West Lakes for Heath's (Gayspie's) birthday
Then we visited a former roymerc cache, grabbed a TB for some southern girls[^] and made it home at a reasonable hour too[^] as chrispy has an eye operation tomorrow[^]
2 events attended, 1 DNF and 2 caches found[^]
My kind of puzzle A solvable one[^]
Made the find although it did take me just a while to work out where it might be, particularly as I was looking for a small and not a MICRO

A nice lil puzzle, that was straightforward, but took a few goes to get checker to work...
Seems no-one else has mentioned the rogue letter? lol
Anyways, stopped at GZ, and found the cache, eventually... I was looking for a "small"...

Thanks

These are always easier when you have a printer. I must admit I struggle when I try and do these on the screen. The scratches it leaves are not helpful! And yes there was seemingly a letter in there that did cause me a slight headache.
Thanks to ollywollydoodle and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet! [^]
Driving down South Rd and Henley Beach Rd on my way to York St, I took a deviation to another street somewhere in Mile End. It was there I gazed upon a fence with some street flora next to it and guess what.....
There was a cache there!

Thanks for the cache ollywollydoodle. I saw this one published and completed the puzzle fairly easily as I know the area well. I should have made the podium easily but life got in the way. SMM was way more committed to the task and deserved gold. On the way home tonight I stopped by GZ with a torch but didn’t need it. Quickly spotted but had to retreat to the car to get the book free.
Congratulations on the puzzle olly. I liked it, great work on the first of many hopefully.

Found it.
Today, I found one multi cache, one Wherigo cache, and one mystery cache. This is the last one.
The cache has been published yesterday morning. I tried, and I felt I was on the right track, but something was not right.
This morning, I tried again, and got the green tick for final coordinates. Nice puzzle.
Drove to the final location, and found the cache easily.
Signed the log book, and placed it back.
Thanks for the mystery cache, ollywollydoodle. Look forward for more puzzles.

Third to find this morning after a pleasant coffee and chat with another cacher. Brad knows this area very well from 15 years of being based at a nearby (now defunct) ambulance station. So many stories. Some pretty sad.
An easy find as close to the road as possible with this hide. Maybe T_M’s question is valid. Certainly it is not completely clear.
Fun puzzle.
Well done ollywollydoodle TFTC

A mystery cache is published and my first thought is that there is information missing. Where is the information I need? A second careful read of the cache notes and I had the information I needed. Ten minutes and ten seconds later there was a solution in hand. So do I rush out now or wait a while. I took the second option and I found that I was the second finder when I opened the log book.
Cache was found in the last place we looked, which as usual was not the first place we looked. Thanks for placing a fun cache guys. We do love your work. We signed the logbook. Of course we did that is way we play this game. Cache in pretty good condition for the cache age.

This particular geocache was found using one of the following GPS enabled devices, Garmin GPSr, Montana 680t, Oregon 650 or Dakota 20 and a Samsung S8. Waypoints and paperless geocaching were downloaded via GSAK 9. Log prepared, checked and submitted using GSAK publish logs...
Warning, this hobby can be addictive. It can lead to exercise, meeting new people and finding interesting places you might not have known existed otherwise. Beware: you may have fun.

Yay. Found it. Yay. A puzzle I could solve and once I found the first word I immediately recognised how to find the others. Was not far away making a GZ placement but figured I could also do another chore (cheap chemist) and maybe a sneaky coffee. Another fun adventure, many thanks for the hide. {FTF} 1015 16/9/20
GeoVenture Mega Event at Millicent, still looking forward to it!! A new date has been proposed for October 2021 now.

Is the cache location for this kosher? It looks to be on private property to me.
