This area is still a worksite. Cheers

Had a phonecall from Mr Jelly from the Remand Centre, the area is about to be turned into a worksite, so it's off line until it can be replaced.

Thanks Mr Jelly

Was led astray by spotting an Eclipse tin on the wrong side of the fence. had to investergate and found a tin of butts! back round the correct side again I located it. tftc

Hubby has been wanting to do this for some time, only one more of this series to go, gee how much its changed from a boys boarding school to the Remand centre, after we told our children what it was they started singing " I WANT TO BREAK FREE" lol TFTC SL

Thanks Barramundi's we could feel the negative karma on the other side of the wall.

was a bit funny about hanging around this one TFTC

Found by Dazey and Shazz on a moonlight jaunt

I never thought a cache outside a prison would be a good idea, but this ended up being a very easy find, at 7am on a brisk June morning. Just a block from where I stayed the night. Thanks.

easy find, but a cache is a cache

It was so easy, this time, just reject my intuition (like my lecture keeps saying) and there it was
That sounds right, a bording school is turned into a jail, I wonder how many changes were made
TNLN
Thanks

A quick one. An old couple parked right next to it and would not leave. Had to wait for quite a while. TFTC.

It took me a while to find it because I did not read the hint. Thanks for the interesting history. I did not stay there for one night as I have a home to go.
Thanks The Barramundi's for the cache.

Thank you Barramundi's, this was our first Adelaide find (well one and only actually - today). Glad to know that we have a nice comfortable bed to go home to, and a dinner of garlic prawns... (but you dont get that in there!)
TFTC... we loved it

Quick find as passing by.

Decided our hotel was more luxurious but enjoyed the cache Thanks and greetings from the UK

I found this one reasonably quickly, but just after I put it back a couple of security guards came out and said "you'll have to move on. You're setting all the alarms off". I held up my hand and said "high five". Evidently they didn't like that too much, so now I'm in a cell with a very friendly chap called Bruce. They let me go online instead of making a phone call, so here I am. Hurrah for extreme sports!

While looking, got visited by several security guards. Friendly blokes but nevertheless decided to leave this one for later.

Thanks for helping to add to my happy face collection!

Made a quick stop to sign the log before continuing on our tour. Not many muggles around today. Thanks!

My first cache! Found reasonably quickly. Thanks a lot.

I noticed this when logging my finds earlier today. Apparently it was disabled when I run my PQs 3 months ago [B)] A quick stop was sun was setting, but I chose not to stay the night

Found with Bek-The Raccoon and Thunderclese, logged quickly and moved on, TFTC!

Cache had fallen onto ground. Replaced where we think it was. TFTC
Bek-theraccoon, Racing Stripes and Thunderclese

Apart from really bad GPSr directions, it was a fairly quick find in a logical spot. Thankfully I didn't have to stay too long - some of the guys going in to visit their mates looked like they'd give me a good mugging to remember the place by! TFTC.

Found it easy enough had to be quick. TFTC

Glad I've never stayed the night here. Cache was found, signed and returned in a matter of moments, before a quick escape. TFTC.

Quick grab and run, before we were quextioned.
TFTC

found it relatively easy. Had a dodge initial gps fix, but then it came good. Thanks.

Easy find. Cheers

thanks for the info and cache

Cache 19 of 62 for our big day out. TNLN TFTC

A quick find with no issues with muggles or guards. TFTC.

It's back, It's small, and will need a writing tool.

Cheers from Barra

Checked the cache today, it has gone, and as I don't work there anymore I fear the cache has been removed by someone inside.

The wind blows rubbish into the area as well, which it CITO'd often. I will tidy it up and replace it soon.

Barra

Another DNF on this, with assistance too

was having a good look until 4 prison officers came past!

will be back to try again soon...

Returned to collect TB Aloha

Found on our Melbourne to Adelaide road trip and caching adventure. Glad we didn't have to stay the night. TNLN TFTC

Found after a few minutes loitering around. The security guards sure seemed interested in what the heck I was doing. Took a little plastic star, left a crappy plastic dinosaur. SL TFTC.

Was on a work trip to Adelaide and staying at the Saville Apartments. Took E-Trex around and GPSr was moving all over the place, not sure if this was due to all the electronic surveilance equipment around. Had no idea in the end regarding as to where this cache may be, and will be sometime before I get back to Adelaide. Wondering if the cache owner might be able to send me a hint to see if I was close.

Found the cache at 2.45pm. Nice easy - found it!!! Not many muggles around there phew!!! SL. Thanks for organising the cache and hunt.

Removed TB and left a Globe Compass.
Log book needs renewing

Found during 24hr cac-hunting run, Accompanied with Varuna and Everlasting as our Driver, Found 120 caches out of 137 including 17 DNFs and the missing caches. Thanks for organizing the cache and hunt.

24hr cache-hunt run by snapper!!! and varuna. At the night time the cache was found and signed (using sticker), before we run back where Everlasting (Driver) was waiting in her car, to drive to the next cache. Thanks for the cache and spot.

Find number 1196. Found while on a mad 24 hour dash with Mr MadMyers. This cache was one of our 189 today. Cheers The Nanks P.S - I am wondering which side of the wall you and the MadMyers shared your meal????

hey Barra - we've shared a meal twice now in the space of a few days - that's not bad for cachers from two states quite a distance from each other. We did quite a few of your caches on our night adventure into caching and enjoyed all of them. Thanks for the cache.

Remand Centre, The Adelaide Boys High School, probably didn't need much modification
The high building were giving the GPS's a hard time, so we just looked, and the cache was in hand very soon.
Start of the night's cacheing.
Thanks, Robmc.

First of a few in company with Calumphing four and Robmc. And a very good night was had by all. As far as staying the night! I'd rather not thanks. It rather reminds me of an incident some years back when a friend of mine's son accidently shot a bloke and found himself inside a similar place. Was a tough time for that family at the time.
Anyway we found and wern't caught loitering so all is good.
Thanks

First of 13 for the evening in the company with Robmc and Chewinpickles from Victoria.
After letting the GPSr settle, and a bit of a search, realised where it probably was. Before looking, Robmc pulled it from that spot.
Good to do this one in the daylight, as I'd hate to be seen looking with a torch around here. Also good to get it done before the next pub lunch, so I don't feel guilty having lunch 100m away from an unfound cache.
I should have left a calendar, so the cache could have 12 months [:o)], but TNLN.
TFTC Barramundi's

Cheers

Read the logs extensively, sat in the car and thought about this one before venturing out to find the cache [8)].
Found in the 3rd place we looked .
Took nothing.
Left GOOMay 2007 'Here I come' geocoin.
SL.
Saw no-one here on our afternoon visit. I can just imagine a kid running a stick along that fence though - amazed it's set up that way .
Thanks Barramundi's for keeping us on our toes. We think you should leave this where it is [^].

Boxing Day Test 2007
Find 145 without a GPS at 2.00pm
TNLNSL FOFV Thanks Barra's

Find# 82
Took: Nothing / Left: Nothing
Thanks for the assist Barra, and for the external tour of the facility.

finally got this mongrel... a lot less intimidating when you have "warden barra" giving you a tour and then helping you but I did enjoy learning about the city remand centre (and even learnt what remand meant lol). thanks again barra! tnlnsl

DNF, despite plenty of hints Perhaps another day.

We must have looked really amusing on camera. Pity we'll never see the footage... Cheers Gav [1403]

Finally getting around to logging the record breaker Thanks!

Kiwi Cache Raid: #6 @ 00:27. A bit nervous about taking on this cache given the location but all was quiet so decided to go for it. Only learnt at the event the next day from Barramundi himself that we would have been spotted on the survelliance cameras. Nice to meet you Barramundi and thanks for the cache.,,,,,,,,,

12:27 a.m. This cache was found on our record-breaking attempt to find the most caches in a 24 hours period; we ended up finding 195 all up.

Thanks to all the cachers who placed these interesting caches in Adelaide.

I only wish we could have spent more time appreciating the locations that we visited on our whistle stop tour.

TNLN, Thanks for the cache.

Kiwi Cache Raid: #6 @ 00:27
We only later learned that we would have been caught on camera.
Thanks to all Adelaide cachers for helping with our quest.
Cheers - M@

Another quick find on our record attempt.
8 cachers covered this area well - found it in about a minute.
Would be quite a challenging spot to search alone.

12.27am. Nice to hear we were on camera

bet Mr Barra had fun watching the CCTV tape.

Found without too much difficulty quite late on a Sunday evening.
I didn't touch the fence, BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER for the staff of the facility, as merely leaving the sidewalk is enough to trip the proximity alarms. I was questioned by three facility staff, who took quite a bit of convincing and use of props to explain what I was doing.
In the end they let on that they knew what was happening, but I get the impression that they are not going to see this as entertainment much longer.
I STRONGLY recommend that this cache be moved across the road, or around the corner, or something, so as to not raise the alarm.
TNLN, TFTC.

A lot of visitors going to this facility on Sunday morning.... though they were not interested in another pair of strange people, though I must add we were not as strange as one who had to explain to us what she was doing.
Thanks for showing us this spot.

I was lucky enough to get a tour of the facilities next door. This cache was the perfect compliment!

Found easily this morning on an exploration walk around the Adelaide CBD TFTC.

Found ok. Took the advice from previous logs and left the fence alone. TNLN TFTC

Found without touching the fence happily. The magnets seem to not be working.

Scooted down here after the lunch to find the cache (a tour? no thanks! ) Thanks for the warning about the fence! I know a small couldn't have been hidden on it but still I would have otherwise been very tempted to at least touch it. Found the container quickly, happy it is an easy hide in this location. TNLNSL. Thanks!

This was a very nervous find - not sure who would appear around the corner and question me - and thanks to Mtbikeroz for his very timely warning too!! Luckily found without incident and quickly skedadled on my way again! TN Left Generic GC and kansas Sunshine GC had a quick visit.
Thanks for a memorable hunt Barramundi's

No shake up for us we were already shaking from the rain and wet clothes from previous caches.

Cheers and thanks for the cache

This was my last cache on a cold, rainy night. There was no-one around and after checking one spot, I found it in the next. Thanks for the cache.

WARNING!!!!
WARNING!!!!!!!!
SEVERE WARNING!!!!!!!!

DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT look at or touch the fence - I AM VERY SERIOUS!!!!!!!!!

As explained to me by the two burly scary looking guards that came charging towards me - the fence is sensed by cameras AND sensor devices, touch it, and even put your hand under it OR NEAR IT, YOU ARE HISTORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fortunately, I was able to explain everything, showed them my GPS and a printout, explained it all - PHEW!.

After that shake up, I left and came back the next day, had a seat, and thought and thought and ......, Then went straight to cache, signed log, and I was outa there.

Had a few hours to kill before my plane. Boy, I must have looked suspicious to anyone walking by. TNLNSL. TFTC

Nice easy find on a rainy day

Did spot a key sitting on the wall near the cache, maybe for quick get away ?

Got a park right out front, and retreated back to said car to sign log. Took 'slacker' badge to give to onewiseowl for his birthday on saturday; he's ever so slow at logging caches. Probably has found twice as many as he's logged. TFTC

Twisties and I were on our way out to Port Adelaide but stopped in for this one on the way. It was Sunday so we were confident we would go somewhat unnoticed. Took a while to find GZ but once we did it wasnt long before the cache was in hand.

Cheers
Sc00t and Twisties

I was really worried about staying too long in this establishment so I had a few quick looks on the way past at lunch times this week, after a hint I managed to go straight to it today and logged it across the road so as not to raise suspicion. Cheers. MODU.
PS I wonder at the significance of the magnet in the cache with a 1c piece stuck to it, is copper magnetic?

-

While sitting on the bench logging the cache after "tying up" my shoelaces, a car approached, did a u-turn and told us to move on. When I asked why, I was told that we were sitting in front of a prison. Oh really? (rolls eyes) I wasn't going to point out that we were sitting on a park bench on public land - you don't argue with a big, black guy. I had to walk away from GZ with the cache in my pocket. I walked back soon after, replaced the cache and kept on walking. I hope it was a warped "in" joke and the cache is still safe and sound. I had to remove an item because I just couldn't get the cache to shut.

This one is finally off the list. Phew!

Nice hide, easy spotting, quick stop near the end of the day.

16th find of the 2nd day at 2:27pm for our Adelaide trip at, accompanied by Feathertop.
It looked like somebody did stay the night and didnt clean up their mess.
TNLN, Signed Log, Thanx Barramundi's...

Nice spot to hid and I dont think I can stay the night because I dont have any trouble yet!! Thanks

Good to hide it !!! Many Thanks

logging our find under new name - previously blue frogs

11 of 12 FTD TNLNSL Thanks

What would SA geocachers do without magnets? I've seen more magnets in 3 days in SA than in 2 years in TAS and I love 'em......they allow such tricky hides
Very quiet around here today and only one passing muggle to look askance at senor el golco who was on hands and knees in entirely the wrong place
TNLNSL Dropped JigglyPuff and Bob the Lobster TBs in but they said no thanks so took them out again.

nice hide....very quiet spot today....left slacker badge....with new cachers...our second ever urban cache
cheers...Burt96

Nice quiet spot. Easy find. A beautiful Easter Friday.

Dropping of Snoopy with a couple of nuts, but they wont be in the Cache, they will be really Staying The Night on Remand

Ok, Nuts, Snoopy and Mopsy are sharing a cell together this weekend. They are not in the cache they are in the Remand Centre.

3 Meals a day, 2 DVD's, GYM, Yard Time, Rec and weights each day. But don't worry, I'll keep them away from other prisoners, wouldn't want them to learn anything bad.

Cheers from Barra

A shortly walk inn!

T4TC

Thor Heyerdahl

we dont stay so long, only a coople of minutes

Found after a quick search. (Didn't really want to aquaint myself with the place any further!). Dropped of Nuts TB. Cheers!

Out cycling today with penguin_tummy, found this without too much drama.

Took nothing, left pencil and feet. I think. I didn't write it down Definitely left a pencil, but not sure about the rest.

Found @ appropx. 19:00

6th for the day.
A quick dash around adelaide after work, to pickup a few outstanding caches before I have to return to Melbourne.

Found the prize sitting out in the open, surprised that it was still there.

Have repositioned deeper into the surrounds. hope this helps it last a longer.

TNLNSL

Thanks for the hunt.

All quiet at the lock up today. Log was a bit damp. Thanks Barramundis

First of seven finds for the day. Looked around for a little while with a number of suspicious looks from those waiting at the bus stop, but found it quite easily. Nice hide.

TNLN

A quick find on the way home from afew hours at work.
