Found it with _DaughtersofEve_ and DishwasherAirlines. Nice camo!

No long story to tell here—easy find.

Number 823 for me.

I will finish with these inspiring words:

When the feeling leaves you
It moves so slow
Like the loose change from your front pocket
You don't even feel it go

When the bitter creeps in
To bite you whole
A spectre unreflected, oh
It keeps you cold

When you keep your linens
Like virgin snow
Like a blanket of white
Unbroken by the soil below

The sound don't carry
Won't rise or fall
It damps the racket, chokes it back
A strangle hold

Ah-ooh
Ah-ooh
Ah-ooh

You paved your Hades
With precious stone
Made an heirloom to patricians
And the rich alone

And the toll for crossing
I'd owe Charon
Would atrophy a half of me
The heart of gold, ah-ooh

Well, I'm not quite ready
To turn to bone
To petrify the shred of life
I'm holding onto

There's no peace to upset
That spirit's flown
This ossified philosophizing's
Getting old

I leave it to you to find out what the name of that song is.

Excellent spot
 
27-Aug-22
Was in Vic Park for a meeting this morning so took the opportunity to pick up a few caches in the area. By chance it turns out all 8 were from the same CO... so thanks for this afternoon's entertainment DCell Smile I have to say the cache description made me laugh! Painfully accurate as there were some prime candidates here today as I walked over to GZ! Not many options once there so after a feel around in the more obvious places, I was happy to make the find in a typically more sneaky spot! All ok here today - TFTC

SirFancy checked out where the cache was initially but dismissed and we searched about the place for a few minutes before returning and spotting our error.
Soon managed to get the log in hand and everything replaced ready for the next finder.

Headed north this evening for the weekly cache outing this week featuring SirFancy and I C Nothing.
Starting at Curtin Uni to complete a new lab and grab what other caches we had left we then worked our way up to the river before turning for home.
A good night out I finished with 5 finds, 5 adventure labs, 2 challenges signed and 1 DNF.

Thanks DCell for placing Snollygoster for me and others to find.
I added my name to the log at 21:18 on 23/8/2022.
This is find number 5618 for me.

Find 4 of 18 with no DNFs on a beautiful bike ride heading out from Burswood into Vic Park and Kensington and back via East Vic Park. Today's entertainment was mostly provided by DCell and their excellent inventions.

Mrs O was on a good run of finds and also had hands on this quite quickly.

TFTC DCell!

Thankfully no tool required. A man was walking his dog but it was easy enough to wait until he had moved far enough away from GZ to log the find. Thanks.

After missing the fun with the Crew in Geraldton, had to get out tonight and find the new hides in the Kensington-Vic Park area. A little bit of head scratching then started thinking like Dcell, then we uncovered in pretty quick time. Even better a blank log a Joint [FTF] with the Cockburn Crew.

Some real effort in the camo and hides. Thanks for the hide.

Out on an after work first to find hunt for new dcell caches.

Joint *FTF* @ 18:16hrs with B12, C10 and Leg5. Quick find here and thankfully didn’t need a TOTT. A sneaky hide that we were on to quickly. Cheers DCell! Big Grin

**FTF** joint.

Can I admit I’m feeling the caching pinch? A big weekend in Geraldton and now DCell hurling a bunch of FTFs in your face.

Always enjoy a DCell hunt, so we had a good night.
