Thank you so much, we really enjoyed your cache. Trees are so classic! A really cool find. Easy peasy!
Just at tennis watching our daughter. So close to just squeeze a quick find in. TFTC
Easy find today with the trees starting to change colour. A previous visit we had, was a DNF for us. So glad to collect a yellow smile today. Thanks BernieH
Found on an afternoon out with one my geo kids. This place brings back memories from when I was a kid playing here against Kilsyth in the mid pit!Easy grab TFTC
Quick find, noone out playing footy or cricket shockingly enough. Thanks! - Choxman23 and Tamzin
Found the cache all nice and snug in its hiding place, we came here to check out the miniature railway and also attend the Kilsyth Festival nearby. Nice Sunday afternoon out, the rain didn't deter us. Very nice area.
Regarding Poplar Spot (GC9EVTB):
Third cache for the day with Little Zyg. Nice easy find, even through the wet soggy grass. Have a very happy Little Zyg. Much better than going to school!

Yes I remember running around an athletics track in Parkville and it was lined with Poplars. However this is not Parkville. Done with TFTC
Found with n0w0rries.
I managed to park within one metre of this poplar cache.
Thanks BernieH.

After watching master eleven aka geoninja play his first game on Kilsyth a show court and score the only three pointer, we decided to collect a cache to celebrate the awesome game.
So The Welder, Ge0Bug and two welder minis and I decided to collect a quick one nearby. After a wink wink, nudge judge it was the littlest welder that located the cache and then went roaring off my geoninja across the oval whilst I signed us all in. Thanks for the cache BernieH

I think it’s pretty obvious where it should be, so fear as well it has been muggled.
As I think my streak will be complete when I finally catch up on my logging, I am being slack and getting some of the caches that are close to home with the hopes that I am correct. Thanks for placing this one and all the others close by that have helped me with my streak.
I am certainly feeling like I am doing my streak again. This was a nice quick find. Thanks for placing this cache for us to find.
Quick find, starting to work out where they're normally hidden. 4th cache for Christmas Eve
We thought it would be kinda easy to look for so we walked to the oval to find out and it took us less than 5mins to find
Thank u
Thank u
Fortunately a relatively quick find here as I searched in the dark. Cache and log are in good shape.
Thanks BernieH for adding this cache to the worldwide collection for us all to find.

After all this wet weather I was worried it might be ruined but it’s still sealed up nicely I’ve just hidden it a bit better
Was looking in the wrong spot at first but after checking my gps I quickly spotted the cache. Tftc!
I like a quick grab and go cache. Now I have found a new spot to bring my dog. TFTC
Another quick find on the way home from work as the skies threaten to open up.
Thanks for bringing me here today by placing this cache, BernieH

I looked at the clock and thought to myself I can get one more before I have to go. Thankfully it didn’t take me too long. Thank you BernieH for placing and maintaining Poplar Spot for us to find today.
Find # 1277.

TFTC.. nice little spot, quieter than the other side easy little find as end my work day.

Ordinarily, I would take two trains to get to the nearest station. Today, it's been two buses, two trams and three trains. But I got here.
And with a bit of time to kill, I took the long way to this evening's event.
On my way from the previous find, I was asked if I could help with a spot of breaking and entering. Er, possibly, said I. It turns out that no breaking was required to open the gate the owner couldn't reach the latch for, and of course I had no need to enter.
So, back to the hunt... and another quick find, especially as the cache was in the open, though in its correct spot. A slight sprinkle meant it should be slightly less likely to be accidentally found.
Thanks, BernieH
