Description
The Big T is where caughtatwork was caughtatwork for many, many years. Finding a smaller part of the Big T will show you caughtatwork's 34th cache.
With the increase in number of mobile telephones the world over the incidence of these items is decreasing. Nonetheless, when you are really looking for one you either find 20 all together or not one for miles and miles.
Your challenge (should you accept) is to locate the one where this cache lies, grab it, make your log and rehide it somewhere else.
Please feel free to log this cache up to 10 times as long as you are having fun finding and rehiding it. Of course, you should wait until someone else has hidden it before you can log it as a find again.
There are some simple guidelines:
- When you grab the cache please rehide it again the same day or at the latest within 24 hours.
- Rehide the cache attached to another one of these objects. The further away the merrier.
- Log your find here as soon as you can so others are not trying to find the cache you just moved.
- When logging your find at geocaching.com.au, please insert the co-ordinates in the coords box.
This allows the software to automatically update the new location.
Enter your co-ordinates in the format Sdd mm.mmm Eddd mm.mmm
You don't have to include the degrees or minutes symbols when entering updated co-ordinates but you should leave a space between the degrees and minutes.
Try a copy and paste of the example co-ordinates into the new co-ordinates box and type over them. - Please keep this cache in Australia but feel free to move it interstate if you feel in the mood.
Exceptions to this guideline are possible, but please (please) do not leave the cache overseas.
Please contact me first if you wish to take this cache overseas.
When you get permission to take the cache overseas, you may log it multiple times without another find in between. - Wherever possible, try and keep to the difficulty / terrain rating as originally listed.
Then run away as fast as you can.
Enjoy.

I'll send it across as soon as I find the address to send it to.
Hopefully next week.
Yes, I have been slack and I'm sorry.
Posted the correct co-ords anyway. Sorry....
Sorry about that! We'll get there soon, may not be before the New Year though, got a Bub due on 3rd Jan.
With the increase in number of mobile telephones the world over the incidence of these items is decreasing.
I didn't expect them to remove the cache as well.
If it's missing, don't stress, I'll make up another one and send it across to someone.
Maybe the 'spot' I have hidden it has been removed? As a particular national company has been removing these 'spots' recently! I haven't been down that road for a bit, since I've been on leave! I can't/won't be there till at least Wed next week. Sorry. Good luck setsojoku.
If not im sure the hurtle helpline will get a call
This cache could do with checking by the last hider.
Cheers
Taking it further south, off the Adelaide Plains, back up to the foothills.
Replaced in kind near where Mini Mustard goes to learn a new skill.
Happy travelling!
Thanks for the cache.
It should come back online shortly.
Sorry for the delay to those watching...
My humblest apologies.....
Will appear later today....
Is it coming out to play soon?
Glass very recently smashed.
Grabbed this sucker, finally..... Stay tuned for more adventures....
Will be back in action soon
It's in quite good shape even after travelling all that distance.
Please don't go looking for it at these co-ordinates, it's not there.
Cool.
Found on 07/01/05 @ 1650 AEDT. Down in the big smoke for the weekend, a visit to the Facit-family resulted in me discovering this cache not too far away
The cache was in my hands a few seconds after arriving at GZ , and relocated a little further than it had been before
Cheers c@w
Returning home after a day out Berwick way we stopped to grab this mobile box. The kids and I enjoyed the sprint from the car and the total lack of stealth
Found quickly by s-Facit

Set out after dinner to re-hide. Amazing how many different styles of these are in our local area!
Found a "smaller part" of the Big T outside a "medium part" of the Big T and right next door to a location the Facit-Family visit often, especially during the summer non-rating season
Another look at the Christmas lights brought us very close to the BigT. Unable to resist we made for the grab and for some reason we did it in the usual discreet manner.
The cache now lies very close to the Coffee Castle. Many thanks Caughtatwork for the opportunity to log this cache.
Regards Mr.Coffee and the "BigC" Clan.
1. As Team_Diesel said it is hard to find a location where both this and Return to Sender can be placed - which I wanted to do.
2. There are different types of objects to hide The Big T and regardless of item 1 above, I couldn't find one that was exactly the same as the one that I retrieved it from. This means that the container isn't as well hidden as I had hoped for.
Thanks C@W.
We have relocated this cache 48 km to the east and located it next to another moveable cache Return To Sender, so the next finder can score two caches for one visit.
