Thanks so much for doing this! 10 year old on scooter loves GeoCache but not the slug.
Easy find thanks to the detailed hint. I managed to sit on the item of interest and complete the formalities while an unsuspecting muggle sat on the bench seat not 5m away praying his rosary.---I won tickets to see [Lve](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_(band)) play in Christchurch last time they were in NZ (20+ years ago) but I couldn't make it to the concert (I still have the tickets!)They've come back down under and I'm not letting the opportunity pass me by again!With my work leave and (more importantly) my home leave approved, I flew down for the concert tonight. Today I made my way around Wigram, finishing off yesterday's effort to find all the Trads, and failing miserably by DnF'ing almost as many as I found 
When we got to this cache first had to search up one of the terms mentioned in the hint as we didnt know what it meant. After that an easy find after a bit of searching. TFTC, SL
Another Wigram cache sorted, I like caching around this area, even though I just grab one at a time. Had no issues with the find, thanks for the placement!TFTC Rufsta, the cache was found in good order 
Signed, sealed and returned to GZ. 1 find(s) of 1 today, making this find #4473

I was in the area this morning to watch my daughter play football so I naturally went to find a couple of nearby caches while I was waiting for the game to start. All good here. Cache found exactly as per the hint. TFTC, Biggles.
My GPS wasn't doing too well at this point so I was grateful for the hint to get me in the right place. A small cache and lots of possibilities so I was happy to find it. Thanks!
Except for the fact that there were lots of places to search, it was a quick find. TFTC.
Came here one other day & muggles were here having lunch so thought we'd come back another day - no muggles today - TFTC

Visited several times, and finally got it. Following the hint, but still some luck required. The container was all good, the log is exposed without waterproofing bags but still dry, however it’s full and needs replacement. Signed at a blank spot (CF17) Will bring a pouch next time when visiting by.

Out with the wee wombles after visiting the Airforce museum. Thanks for the cache.

Nearly gave up on finding this one. Beautiful view of the hills from this spot. Glorious ️
I spotted this one a couple of weeks ago but had no pen on me. Second time round I have pen in hand, success! tftc
A quick easy find with the helpful hint. A lot of this company's planes have graced NZ skies in the past. TFTC
Located with Ricardinho
Quick find here
We had a couple of hours to spare this afternoon, so RNZ took me on a geo recon. We headed to Wigram & grabbed a few caches around the area

A great name in aircraft, thanks for the cache here rufsta. It was a reasonably quick find.
My second caching trip of the day, but this time I have RG1972 in tow. We have a couple of hours in the afternoon spare so we decide to come out here as it’s reasonably handy to home base, and a bit of an extension from my Aidanfield trip earlier this morning.
Not much to report. A few caches with full logs or wet ones, so we added some RITR paper there. Thanks for the caches all COs.

1 month till Christmas and a gorgeous late spring evening to take a pup for a walk...a successful find to top it off and this would be my favourite kind of way to spend an evening like this

After a discussion with witchytaz about best way to remember port and starboard was a nice easy find lol
"Port has four letters in it, as does left. So right has to be starboard", well that's my theory and I'm sticking to it!!!!
Didn't sign as not much room left - and had no pen! Thanks for all the info with these Wigram caches
It was getting a bit cold, wet and miserable while I was searching here. Despite the good hint it took me much longer than it should have and then I found it where I had first looked but obviously not well enough. TFTC # 17,144
