It's school holidays so I finish work a little earlier than usual. I talked GeoHubby (GNARwhal) into leaving work early also (we work at the same establishment) so we could have a GeoDate while Miss 11 is at the beach with her sister.GNARwhal made a quick find here. Sometimes I don't ask him along because his geosense is amazing and he finds all the caches!!! Thanks for another smiley.

16-Oct-23
Down from Whangarei for a few days visiting family and had to take the opportunity to grab a few caches as and when the chance presented itself. This avo, the other half took the credit card on a trip to town, so I headed in the other direction for a proper caching jaunt.Saw this one on the map as I was driving past, so though it worth stopping to investigate and it wasn't long before the appropriately themed cache was located.

#22292. Found it with Troodles last week, so thought I'd swing by today and do the paperwork before I forgot where it was hidden. GZ was all quiet on a sunny afternoon (maybe the morning rain had put off any potential tennis players). Nice hide. TFTC.
 
24-Mar-23
Our GPSr pointed to a likely GZ, but no cache was found here despite quite a lot of scrabbling round. Then we noticed the other one and relieved that the cache was a quick find here, and that no-one was playing tennis Razz.
Great lime trees! TFTC.

Good night for a drive TFTC!

20-Feb-23
A replacement cache is now in position. Same design as the one that has gone missing in all the side shoots.
Thanks for the notification.

It's been a few weeks since my last great Sat morning exped. Weather and work have conspired against me. But no excuses this morning. Initially co ords were well off, but then a quick look, sand yeh, I get it, and got it. Cheers!
 
04-Oct-22
Good luck

18-Aug-22
Wandered around looking at the ground for a while before I took a step back and found it. Feels great to be the first name in a new log book! TFTC!
 
23-Jul-22
Original container has gone walk-about. So we replaced with one suggested by an early finder. It will be interesting to see how robust it is. No room in it for anything other than logbook.
Enjoy!
 
18-Jul-22
Found it but nothing in it
 
03-Jul-22
Was very complicated but worked out were it was at the end
 
02-Jul-22
We were barking up the wrong tree
 
25-Jun-22
Had to wait for some muggles to disappear before we could get the cache nice easy find . Tftc pipncharles
 
23-Jun-22
I tried searching for this ages ago but there was so much ivy I couldnt see it in the dark. Back in the dark again this time with Nanzie, as we pulled up there was a bunch of young people hanging around the tree with torches, we werent sure if they were caching or just muggles so sat in the car and waited. They left after a few minutes and we found the cache easily right where they had been, the last name in the log didnt have a date so not sure if that was them or not. A lot easier to find with the ivy having being cleaned away. Thanks pipncharles
