Thanks for the updates folks. I'll take this one offline until I can retrieve, fix and return.
Busy day here today with lots of Muggles around. Luckily a hunch paid off and we found it pretty quickly. TFTC
This definitely deserves a favourite. Was able to grab a lovely lunch on the run from the local shops. Geoturtle37 has always wanted to visit this road as her aunt was Phyllis Marguerite "MALING" after whose family this road is named. Dropped a TB. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
Creative hide. My first visit to Maling Street. I love the character of the area and will be back again. TFTC.
Found this one between hopping off the "locomotion" to where I parked my car. I found this one with the iPhone torch - something looked out of place - this was after a day at a conference at my old University. tftc
At first I was looking in the wrong spot probably looking a little shifty at 11am on a Tuesday but after reading the logs I knew this would be a good one so I persevered. After widening my search a little bingo! Wow really cool cache and gets a fav point from me TFTC
After one DNF decided to try for this again. just as things were looking like a repeat experience I heard a voice behind me saying "this is one of the best you will ever find". so I decided to keep at it and voila! in hindsight should have gotten it the first time but a very clever camo nonetheless
Sneaky spot! Found it very quickly though due to the lid being slightly off. Great hide, TFTC!

This is the coolest cache I have found well hidden although we found it in a matter of seconds!
Great cache design. A little disappointed not to find Ms Minogue hiding there too. Oh well. A big cheers!
When I looked where I expected the cache to be I found the log in full view, because the container's lid had come off. When I returned the log I made sure all the parts fitted together to keep it hidden.
Thank you for the clever hiding place.

In between meetings today, I had some time to kill so decided to grab a cache.
I didn't see anything where the GPS was pointing so expanded a few meters and found the nice camo.

3rd of three today with Geokid. Had function at MLC so took opportunity to catch a few local caches.
We liked this one car park quiet. Actually needed a toilet stop so snuck cache in to sign the log. Replaced clandestinely. Nice one.

I was up early for my very own Geocaching Road Trip '15. I set the alarm and was on my way. It was a miserable morning but the fun of caching made it worth getting out and about. The idea today was to collect a few caches in areas that I hadn't been before to fill in a few gaps of the Victorian Municipality Map. I parked in the main street not knowing that I could park almost on top of the cache hide. I walked to the area, waited out a few muggles then went to look. Well done. I'm surprised this hasn't had more favourite points. Seen these before but this was well done. Stamped and returned as found.

Log and container in good condition.

SO GOOD!!!! I forgot to bring my pen and swapping things but definitely an awesome sneaky cache! First cache in Melbourne found with GeoBro
Out on the hunt once again with the geobuddy and misses tftc. Cool camo loved it
My first cache find! Must have taken me nearly one hour. Used my tablet with a GPS which turned out to be very inaccurate: coordinates kept changing! It finally led me to the right spot though, with the coordinates showing as pretty close to correct when I found the cameo. Used the secret hint, plus the unintentional spoilers in the online log i.e. people saying they looked around and spied a likely object. Also now I know that a micro sized cache doesn't need to be that small!
Quick detour on the way home to find this. Checked in some of the more obvious places before the clue made perfect sense. Great camo - loved it. Best I have seen yet! Gets a favourite from me. TFTC
On our [trip around the world](http://www.hoppundweg.piekar.de/) we came to Australia as well. We started in Tasmania, rented a campervan in Melbourne and went up the Eastcoast to Cairns. Then we drove all the way to the Red Centre. We finished in Darwin. We searched many caches and found almost every cache we searched for . Thanks to all the owners of these caches. Now, 2 years later, we recognized, we will never be able to log every cache seperately... So: Sorry for this standard logtext and thanks for one of the caches, which accompanied us on our journey.
Zusammen mit smellfooth und silli1310 hier vorbeigekommen und die Dose gesucht. TFTC.
today we hadnt so much time, so we decide to find the nearest cache from home. It took some time, but finally we found this nice cache. Unfortunately Kylie wasn't here, today
An afternoon off for some caching had me visiting GZ. With a parking lot right next door, muggles were everywhere at 2.45pm. However found the cache without rousing suspicion. Great camo and loved the placement. Coordinates were perfect - had 0m at GZ!!
TFTC!
TFTC!
Found while in the area together with Pathfinder24.
The cache was easily located and the log book signed despite lots of mugglers around.
Thanks for the cache Happy Chappies! A great place to visit as it has been kept so well.

TFTC! Amazing spot! We had 15 people looking for 30 minutes to find this one and it only found us by accident when a friend got angry! Beware the next door neighbor muggle asking questions.
An evening bike ride so I thought that I would throw in a couple of caches. This was the second. It took me way longer than it should have. When I eventually found the cache I was kicking myself. Anyway, the log is signed. TNLN. TFTC.
AMAZINGLY HIDDEN! Went hunting at 10pm in the dark amongst A LOT of spiders in those damn bushes. Took us about 20 minutes with rhiannajm and jen_mac104
Suscoe's 19th find of the day, a very sunny day with a warm breeze.
We were out and about in the inner eastern suburbs today.
We found a park and after a short search we had the camo in hand.
Thanks to the Happy Chappies for placing this cache here.
It was pretty warm here this afternoon wih the car thermometre touching 37 as we departed.

It's Boxing Day afternoon and we are down in Melbourne to do the various rounds with the relatives. And take a break caching in between of course!
Not a soul around being the time of year it is, so it was an easy task to find the very cleverly camoed cache. Maling Street were the local shops to my school many decades ago, so I enjoyed revisiting it and showing it to Chunk. Thanks for bringing us here Happy Chappies.

Navigation threw us right off but we found it in the end. Interesting camo!
Found with Geomorgs and kids 9/11/14 .. casually walked upto this one while the others were literally digging around .. great cache! Thankyou
With Bella, char and nasho33, found it after a while fossicking through the wildlife thanks!
Was coming down to Melbourne for the Armageddon convention, and decided to use the off time to grab a number of caches.
Had decided the best plan was to try to target caches representing missing months that are problematical up in Sydney (ie non-existent or distant and high terrain/difficulty).
I also had manoeuvred my finds so the first cache I grabbed was my 1100 milestone. I had only one candidate for that.
End result of 3 days here was six new missing months, a new cache type (also not available in Sydney), and finding a multi I'd started this time last year...
[center]* * * END OF CUT AND PASTE SECTION) * * *[/center]
This was one of the missing month targets I'd identified, so swung by here early in the morning on the way to the convention.
Was here quite a while, but no sign of anything big enough to be this cache. I Should Be So Lucky!
Did spot a location something could have been...
Oh well, I have another alternative for this month, so will go for that this afternoon. Hope this was simply cache blindness.

Cleverly hidden! Took a little bit of time to find, but easy once spotted.
The lid had sort of fallen off but replaced it nicely. Everything else in good condition. TFTC!

Found this one some time ago but as I was in the area thought I'd take Krawattes first TB that I've been carrying around for a while to visit.
Gee, it seems all of my caches are going offline at the moment! Oh well, add it to the list....
Assuming the camo is still where it should be I'll recover it tonight and then replace soon.

Not as bad as feared.... Quick check and, luckily, had a spare log on me - So all good to go.
Great find!!! The co-ords were spot!!! This is the first cache I have found that has used urban camo.
Happy chappies, this is what we call dedication to geocaching! What a well crafted spot, well done!
After parking near the gz we found the gps wouldn't settle down and after broadening our search area I spotted something that needed closer examination, sure enough we soon had this great camo in our hand and quickly logged. Checked the gps again and found the co-ord's were spot on, sometimes that's the way it goes. Thanks Happy Chappies for the well hidden cache, worth a fave for the work. Mrs Hp decided to make plans to come back and have a good look around the area when she has more time to indulge.
Clever hide, haven't seen one like this! Too many people to be able to write in the log today. TFTC!
Found this before getting Fish and Chips at Mailing Road. Very clever hide. Found with McWillid. TFTC!
Went for an early morning walk and decided to detour for this one. Nearly gave up but couldn't walk away without finding it. A great hide even with the spoiler photos which didn't spoil it at all! Thank you Happy Chappies, great job
Caching our way to our 700th find today, picking up a few different types on the way.
Parked (The Loco-Motion) nearby and there were few muggles about as it was lightly raining.
Searched and found a likely looking object (I Should Be So Lucky) (photo attached) but was disappointed that it wasn't actually the cache. After (Spinning Around) for a quick look in a few other spots I soon turned up this well camouflaged cache. Number 696 for us.
Nicely done, I hope it stands the test of time.
Took a photo, (Word Is Out) we left our mark. Visited some TBs. Thanks for the cache Happy_Chappies.
We also got our (Gold Logie) 700th cache just after dark in Westerfolds Park. WWWandering - GC613
