As I am now working very long hours, and cachers seems impatient for this cache to be replaced, it can be archived.
 
20-Jan-08
It might be time to archive this cache, as it doesn't seem to be coming back.
 
06-Jan-08
Is this cache coming back soon? I'd love to have a go if it is.
 
27-May-07
May not be there.

Hope to check this week.

Searched for about 20 minutes, but no luck. I'll be back once someone confirms it is still there.

We stopped by the Wailing Wall for a look as the first stage of cache hunting which would finish off with 'Tastes like Failure'. This one certainly tasted like failure! Thanks for the hunt and as oft over quoted, we'll be back!

I believe the bench has been removed. Looked for 30 min but then had better things to do (food)as we couldn't be sure about which side the bench was facing.

Nice work on the contruction of the cache.

Ready to go.

Visited the school today, collected cache. The school is happy for the cache to go back into the wall, so I will replace it soon.

Contacted by school, cache has been handed in and they want to return it to me...obviously it is not where it should be.

Loved it! Razz Any cache that makes you stand on a busy street corner in the city and look like an idiot searching for something while thousands of cars go past has to have an element of fun to it.

Dak found the cache first but he didn’t tell Adam or myself where it was so we still had to find ourselves.

TNLFTFTC! (I did like the cache, really!Big Grin)

Plenty of hoons in cars yelling at us as they drove past... but that didn't really phase us as Lt Sniper, dak's Emu Mob and myself continued the hunt along the wall.

The location of the hide seemed obvious so I called If to ask for some information to avoid injuring myself (from possible sharps). Little did I know that by this stage dak had just about found the cache. After a little more digging I made my way down to where dak was slyly grinning and he let the Lt and myself find the cache for ourselves.

First of nine finds on my third night in Brisbane, in company with The Garner Family and Lt Sniper. Visions of "The Wall" swam before my eyes as we approached this one. The task looked more daunting, especially in light of the 'more effort has gone into secreting this cache' comment in the cache description. We spent about 20 minutes looking in what seemed to be possible places--I wished I'd paid more attention to everything in the cache description. [B)] We eventually found it at 2110. Well done! It's a micro, so I made no exchange. Thanks to hotandsweaty for the cache.

Well that was a little more difficult than the other wall, it took me twice as long. Gone in 20 seconds Big GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig Grin

Now I think I can relax and have a coffee after all that effort.Wink

Now if only I could find that Monkey[?]

Thanks for the cache H&S.

PS. My advice to others just stop and have a drink when you get to the wall and take it all in you never know what you might see when you are not really looking.

Gotcha - The HawMorFords found it at about 15:45 on this beautiful Sunday afternoon.

It took us about 30 minutes i think... that is quite a wall!!!

Thanks to hotandsweaty for the cache. TNLN.

That's all the hotandsweaty caches up to date for the HawMorFords - we are very much looking forward to your future hides - esp. your late night specials. Cheers

Finally got round to fixing this cache up. The cache has been relocated by about 20 metres. The cache itself is a bit bigger than last time, but all together, I think it is hidden a bit better now.

You will need to be in MAJOR STEALTH mode.

You will need to BRING YOUR OWN PEN as the cache now only contains the log.

Have fun.

IF advises me that the cache is gone.

It will take me a few days to redo...sot its down for a while.

I went out to have a look for this one and ran into the same lot of workers, water blasting the wall. There were rocks and chunks of mortar flying everywhere. If the cache is still there it must be tough or well hidden.
Brummy

Took a dip at this one this morning but came up empty handed - our search was hampered by some fellas on a scissor lift with a high pressure water thingy cleaning the wall... hope the cache is ok ??? !!!

Found this one easily enough. Very clever H&S. The workmanship in building this wall in the 1800's is inspiring

After trying to find The Wall Twisted cache I decided a quick pass by this wall was in order, if only to satisfy myself that it would be another Hot and Sweaty mind bender! Phew it was not to be. Big Grin I had the cache in my hot little hands after only 10mins!! Hot and Sweaty must be losing his touch. Wink

First pass across the wall proved fruitless although strangely enough I did find another film canister which clearly wasn't the cache. The bench provided a good spot to sit and think and the second assault revealed the cache. I thought this was brilliantly hidden. SL. TFTC
