Tally Ho as Hounds Abound Syndal, Victoria, Australia
By teflon boy on 10-Nov-06. Waypoint GCZ975

If you meant the 7 days after your note, that week has well and truly gone.

Will be back on line by the end of the week

Is the Geo coin missing or do you have it and the cache safe

Temporarily disabled as the cache has been disturbed. The cache will be relocated soon

Looked for this one for ages couldnt find it, a new fence and pathway have been put in and a lot of trees have been removed by the look of it hope the cache hasnt been disturbed, some one may have to check it out

After a few misses found this one with my friend. We were just about to give up when we found it.
Found at 6:02 pm
Left TB Took bouncy ball for my sister

Decided to do this one after another eluded us, and being hot & bothered we just wanted to get home. Got to watch a few overs of cricket while walking to GZ. Left TB. TFTC.

we walked right past it ... well over it ... we saw it and went :O.... wait that's not a cache .... turned out we had to look under this mysterious object nice hide guys TFTC Took coin left red yellow and blue monopoly houses.

1555hrs

This one was the last on the way home today from work.
The calculation was easy and I was soon off after the Cache.
Arriving at the GZ i had to wait for a slow canine to leave the area with his walker before I could retrieve it.

Took TB Brum
Left GC Jangor Kitty (PCMFRV)

This is one of the new 'convenient' caches I'm doing now that my cycle route to work has changed

Scoped this out en route and guessed at the potential hide, but being such a busy little park in the afternoons, didn't want to risk rummaging around too much, so grabbed the details and did the calculations at work. A quick check on google maps and sure enough, my hunch was right. Quiet enough this afternoon and on approach deduced the hide correctly and made a quick find...

Dropped off a TB.

TFTC!

Got to this park at around 3:15pm to find a game of cricket underway at one end of the park and a number of canines and their owners training on the other end. Found the first clue easily but had to leave the cache for later. Came back at about 8:30pm and found the cache easily. Logged the find and returned the cache. TNLN. TFTC. Kems

TLNL due to no thematic objects handy. TFTC

Found the easy way. Don't think I would have found it with the more interesting way - may be a bloke thing! Nice hide and plenty of goodies. TNLN. TFTC Teflon Boy.

Used the direct option. TFTC. Left a dog bone eraser.

dipping personal gc

grabbed clues last week, but after commencing a trek across a sodden field back then, I gave up.
Went back tonight using an alternate route (last cache of the night after filling up at the local BP).
This was a quick find, and a nice challenge.
TN left green super bouncy ball. SL

#3 on our High Country getaway. Did a bit of geocaching on our way out of town. Hounds did abound at this site. Found the phone number and then the cache easily enough. Picked up Water Quacker TB to move it along. TFTC.

Nice and easy one to start the day. Nice little park tucked away for the dogs lovers for meet and greet. I think the owners enjoy it just as much as the dogs. Took traveller and left one.
Thanks for bringing me here

A hard day of geocaching - searched for at least 10 but only found 2.

Left a travel bug.

Interesting clues to find the cache. My GPS was set to UTM so had to covert your co-ords. Definetly a popular place for dogs.

TNLN

Thanks for the cache

good start for our geocaching career

A great oval to visit and place for dogs to feel free. There was a happy dog racing around the oval chasing the little low flying speedy birds, and I guess the birds liked it as well as they persisted.

Besides watching the birds and dog, I also found the cache. TFTC

Found this one on a beautiful sunny morning. Took me back to when I was 15yo and flew model planes here - 35yrs ago!!! Took Daffyd the Dragon TB TFTC Regards Sarian

Easy find.

Marked clearly by one of the local dogs.

Took nothing, left purple (dog) tag.

Thanks

Hi teflonboy, i made a mistake about what i had put in the cache yesterday. I have put in my Daffyd the Welsh Dragon, who would like to see some of Australia first before finding his way back home to Wales in the u.k.
It was a gr8 cache.
Welsh Wobbler.

Nice cache, long way from home 10612 miles.Good effort what !!! Took Wessie the twin who wants to travel west. Placed St Armands Key to do the same.
TFTC SL.
Welsh Wobbler.

found in the morning 10:30 when it was very hot. our first one in Australia !!

in: Smilie, Donalds Zauberbox, TB Wessie
out: 2x gum ball, little dog

thanks

Forgot to log TB

Stupid GPS made us miss all the other ones I had planned to do - so this was our first of two for the day (it was supposed to be 7 - ra ra ra!)
TFTH - would've loved to have had a dog to throw the ball for here

Found this one at 18:05 while on the way home from a meeting nearby. I like these types as one particular function on Geko makes them a "traditional" find for me . Had to time the retrieval and replacement of the cache carefully to co-incide with gaps between muggles and their dogs walking by.

TNLNSL. Thanks teflon boy.

Found @ 9:30pm A nice easy multi in great area. TNLNSL TFTC

A nice easy cache for newbies like me.
Also good to have the way point out in the open: good for checking one's GPS against known co-ordinates. However the results makes me thing my GPS is a little bit out of whack.

Nice park on a windy afternoon. Enjoyed the fun. Thanks for the cache.

It can be fairly exposed to muggles, but we camped out for a while watching the sport...

Swapped the Fragrant Harbour GC for the Haughton's Hunters GC.

TFTC!

~17:20 King and Queen Snr with Squire and King Jnr. After just completing your other nearby cache we headed over. This has been on Jnr's to do list for some time. A very nice location that I had not visited before. Thanks again teflonboy. Swapped dogs and swapped coins.

Found with Geoson on the way home from his chess class. Nice walk in the park for an easy find.
Thanks teflon boy. TNLN

I think I parked at the most suitable location, but had I been using my head a bit better I would have saved myself the walk on this hot day. Worst still, as soon as I sat to collect the info at WPT1 a bird crapped from high above all over my new PDA![:(!]

Not to worry, plenty of tissues in the car to clean it off with. Fortunately the cache wasn't a crappy experience.

Thanks Teflon boy,

R - B

Found by caughtatwork at 4:00
A quick multi was just the ticket for the last of the cache finds for GabGab and I today. We collected the clues, did the plotting, drove the car somewhat closer and took a 2 minute walk. Woohoo! Cache
Took nothing, left nothing.
Thanks teflon boy or the opportunity to find your cache today. It was simply too hot to walk today, so the sloth that I am and the youngster than GabGab is, we decided that driving wouldn't spoil our experience. I hope you don't mind.
*Overall Experience: 3*
GAFF 1

Rated: for Overall Experience

I found this cache with caughtatwork today. It was a nice easy find, especially as we drove to the cache location. Thank you teflon boy.

The dogs were out in force today. Timing was everything at GZ.

Left The Octagon Geocoin.

The area was relatively quiet today so we were able to make our way over to GZ and search unhindered. Nice hiding method. TNLN - sorry, we didn't have any dog related items. SL at 5:45pm. TFTC teflon boy!

5:00 pm

a nice short multi
my last for this day
and although my 111 cache

thx
Kichi

Discovering the caches of our nearby home away from home.
Many two and four footed muggles here this afternoon.
Obviously a favourite site considering the numbers.
Unfortunately no doggie swag.
Thanks for the hide teflon boy.

11.30am
Found by Roma and Max.
We collected the necessary numbers at the posted co-ords, did our calculation, but due to the numbers of folk in the vicinity we chose to drive around and park closer to GZ and make a more discreet approach.
We left one of our usual Mondo Figurines for the cache and took a Bear as a memento.
Thank you teflon boy for placing this cache.
Romax.

Found by edmil and maddie. Nice quick multi. We wer actually off to do another but had changed mind and ended up at this one ( I had forgot to stop the navigation) ah well never mind we were where a cache was and that is all that mattered. Worked out the new coords and marched to the cache. I was heading a bit further while maddie walked straight to the cache - Damn another one I have to live down. Made no swap but left

A quick find on a sunny winter's day.

TN, left little bear - not quite a dog, but at least it's furry!

thanks teflon boy.

Great little park in an unepected area.

4 of 17 found today

Miscalculated the coordinates and ended up 2km away in a residential street eventhough I kept telling myself I must have miscalculated. Should have stuck to instincts. After the correction, cache retrieved with ease by CK. Nice oval.

Our first one ever!! Pretty easy to find, should be the first of many! TNLN

Pickupfamily Dad dropped in to collect our Podcacher Migration TB to take it to the States with me next weekend.

10:40. Found cache in the company of the Yenorom Rangers. Lovely and quick multi. In: Ball. TFTC

Nice cache fairly easy just one of the eleven tried today.

Did with John-Gill

Took:Dog
Left TB Pickup Family Podcacher and dog pin

Found @ 5:15pm.

Nice easy multi to finish for the day. As I had no doggy swaps, TNLN.

Found it with clockwise, and I actually retrieved and replaced this one. Yay me!

Found tonight at about 9:00pm. Good fun to do in the dark. Thanks teflon!

This was my final cache for the day. There were a few stragglers from Australia Day still playing nearby, but after calculating GZ I noticed that there was no-one there. Once at GZ, the cache was quickly located. Thanks Teflon Boy for the cache.

No hounds today so we got straight into it. Found at 1550 hrs.

Only a couple of puppies around, but Luck Dog managed to locate the only muddy puddle in the whole place, and lounge in it - repeatedly...

Found the cache by starting at the centre of the oval, and walking in the right direction.

1230hrs.
Tally Ho
Away I go
Don't have a hound
but ground zero I found.
Is it just me or does everyone think they can play tennis during the Australian Open. Having said that I need to hurry because the match is about to start with Federer.
Plenty of muggles and muggle-muts. I stood near GZ for a while waiting for my chance and then stood a bit longer waiting to put it back. This one is close to Ghost Suburb...check that one out for sure!

6th find of the day at 1:19pm Accompanied by Feathertop on our day out to the east.
TNLN, Signed Log, Thanks Teflon Boy....

Found by Facitman and the Facit-Family at 12:17pm
Nice quiet time in the park today, just tennis players and a few cars in the car park stopping for lunch. Used the harder method and e-facit had the cache before you could say "symbol of the sacred feminine".

Took: Nothing
Left: Toy Dog
Thanks Teflon Boy

We collected the required information and headed off to gz where the gpsr led us directly to gz and we found it in the first place we looked. Moved away to fill out log and make swaps feeling quite pleased with our selves
Took nothing
Left ball for dogs to play with.
Then the trouble began, a lady and a young child came to play very close to gz making returning the cache impossible. After waiting a while we decided to visit a nearby cache with the hope that they would be gone when we returned. This turned out to be the case and the cache was retuned to it's hidey hole
Thanks Teflon Boy

Found 16:40, a nice easy cache after our last cache [xx(] Rabbitto's "How Well Do You Follow Directions? # 1".

TNLN, thanks teflon boy.

Found on 24/12/06 @ 1600 AEDT. Fourth if six finds for this Christmas Eve with Max, and the GeoHounds Malby & Darcy

Upon arrival we collected the required numbers, but refrained from using them until the 'more difficult' method failed to reveal a satisfatory location [B)]. Once the numbers were crunched, the cache was easliy revealed , and as an added Christmas bonus, I found $10 on the way back to the car

TNLN

Cheers Ghellards and Merry Christmas

Appropriatley dogs kept me at bay for some time. One dog owner approached me thinking I was from the council, she thought her dog was doing something illegal no doubt. Anyway they moved on and I moved in for the kill. thanks teflon boy. TNLN

Found at 2.58PM.. A nice and simple mutli. Wickedxe found this one before I got there.. nice little park.. THanks for the cache from M.B

TNLNSL

Found @ 15:30. Used the phone number method to get to GZ but found myself standing on open ground. Rechecked calcs and same place. Decided to look around and found the cache a little to the North from where I was. Not sure if final co-ordinates are a little out or my GPS was toying with me.

TNLNSL Thanks

I got a few funny looks from a weird old muggle walking his dog, but other than that a good cache! TNLN and camouflaged it a bit more

Give two paths, we had to try both (just one of those things). An easy find, but an exposed spot.
Thanks, Robmc.

Would have worked better if I'd brought out hound along but we found it all the same. There was a muggle looking at us sideways though so we had to time our movements. Wonder if it's the same one mentioned in other logs.
No swaps but thanks.

Found by Kitchen Hand Sponge early this morning ,
there was lots of dogs and lots of muggles *hope i wasnt spotted*

TNLN

Thanks teflon boy for the cache

Found by Mary & David at 1850. Not many people about now, so no problems with our search. TNLN. Our thanks to teflon boy.

Managed to find the long way in but once here the clue was obvious. Tried both methods but never made sencs of the cryptic one and the cache was easily found using the clue. Took and left different dogs as I did the necessary between a hand full of muggles occasionally passing. Thanks teflon boy for the cache and walk.

I returned to this cache after finding a spotted dog in a near-by cache. He may have escaped from here. I originally put a wading bird in the cache for the dogs to chase but on returning I rescued it. Thanks teflon boy.

Found with the Coffees and Mystery Inc.

Found with The Coffees and Mini Cacher One.

Tally Ho the Coffee Clan stopped off for the cache!. We were lucky today as there was very little activity around and we were able to test both options. The second chice had us stumped for a few minutes then it seemed to fit into place and we confirmed both by finding a well hidden cache.
Many thanks to the Teflon Boy for another fun cache in a park that makes me want to go and buy a dog.
Regards Mr.Coffee and the "with two boys who needs a hound to keep you active" Clan.

Second of twelve caches for the day found at 10:50 in the company of Dak Emu. This turned out to be a nice easy multi and a short walk which we were glad of due to the rain. I used to work close to here at Optus Vision. I dropped off the Initial point Geocoin black nickel and picked up several other coins. Thanks Teflon boy for the cache.

Another find for The Rebel Alliance. L.L.T.R.A

Third of thirteen finds on a cold, rainy day in company with acts2youthgroup. We took the easy way out and collected the numbers. Then we took the lazy way out and drove around to GZ. We found it at 1050. I had nothing to suit the theme, so I made no exchange. I did grab the Geocoin though. I dropped a heap of Geocoins into this cache, and Acts2YG nabbed them. Thanks to teflon boy for the cache.

Found by Bob at 1015

A short detour on my way to work this morning had me at the posted coords, and a few quick calculations later I was on my way to GZ. The alternate method was in my mind, and confirmed the accuracy of my arithmetic - although I only got the cryptic clue later when doing my log. A nice, easy find in another of the nice parks this area can lay claim to.

TNLN

Thanks teflon boy - I bet nothing sticks to you .

I'm third to find as always. Nice easy find. TNLN. Thanks.

Found at 3.50pm GAFF1. Woofers abound! That's for sure. As we opened the door of our car, a woofer came bounding up and licked c-pprass on the arm and then moved on. What a welcome! We decided to use the cryptic method for finding the cache as we are somewhat jaded of doing substitutions, counting and maths. We scanned the horizon and we soon discovered what the cryptic hint meant and headed off. The full meaning of the hint didn't dawn upon us until after we found the cache. Thanks teflon boy for an interesting cache (used to play tennis at the nearby courts many years ago) Took: small long eared dog, Left: Guide dog puppy.

Chose one of the 3 car parks to enter the area by and tried the second choice method first, with the clue of "water boiling symbol"!Couldnt work it out,so did it via the pn'number method and was soon at GZ and could now understand the "clue meaning".A well thought out hiding method too.Tally Ho and thanks to teflon boy.TNLN.

Dear Teflon Boy,

We found your cache tonight at 8:55pm, just missing the FTF by 5 minutes. On route to WP1, we saw a suspect torchlight flashing around over on one side of the oval. This turned out to be PickupDad who had fled the scene by the time we arrived. The final co-ords seemed to be a bit south but the clue pointed us right. Thanks for our 1st Teflon Boy cache.

Kind Regards,

D, S & A B-A

FTF by Pickupfamily Dad at 2050hrs. Thought I'd be too late but was surprised to find an empty log book. Sorry I missed you Rabbitto. I was looking out for others when I first arrived, but I signed the log in the car and returned it quickly which I guess was when you saw me.
