Description

The 49th cache hidden by caughtatwork is a moveable cache and can only be found on Geocaching Australia.

My Moving Cache
Your challenge is to locate this cache, collect it, run away, make your log and rehide it in a location that matches the color of the cache container.

The log sheet is waterproof to (hopefully) ensure its longevity.

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:

  1. When you grab the cache please rehide it again the same day or at the latest within 24 hours.
  2. Rehide the cache attached to an object the same or similar in color.
    The further away the merrier.
  3. Log your find here as soon as you can so others are not trying to find the cache you just moved.
  4. 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.
  5. Please keep this cache in Australia but feel free to move it interstate if you feel in the mood.
  6. Wherever possible, try and keep to the difficulty / terrain rating as originally listed.
Of course the best fun about one of these caches is that you don't have to worry about being spotted retrieving the cache. Feel free to be as obvious as you need to be in order to claim it.

Then run away as fast as you can.

Enjoy.

25th Moved THENANKS S27° 37.298' E153° 14.078'
I delivered Government Grey to its new resting place today. If you pick it up during a week day remember to wave across the road where young CHUNKY MONKEY should be busy learning and Mumma NANKS busy teaching!

Happy hunting.

THENANKS
17th Found it THENANKS I couldn't resist picking up this little guy again. It has been nearly 2 years since Mr NANKS had an incident involving a security guard retrieving Government Grey. Fortunately, I was undisturbed when grabbing it again. I felt pretty sure I knew where it would be as this is our local area! A quick easy find....and yes....I left the red dot. Mmmmmm.....where to now??? Cheers THENANKS
16th Moved GraKez S27° 35.157' E153° 17.139'
OK, the Government has gone urban.
It has moved east and is now only 2kms from the bayside shore.
The grey is a little hard to find at first,
but once you see the grey you know you are close to the Government!
16th Found it GraKez Got it, co-ords were spot on, so I didn't need to look hard.
Not sure where he's going yet, maybe somewhere a little more urban.....

February 2008

10th Moved mastamak S27° 36.347' E153° 11.064'
Moved back in to the Brisbane area. Southside in a bushland setting. Not much grey around here so won't be hard to work out where.
9th Found it mastamak Nice location with decent views. There was a fishing competition on this weekend so there were muggles everywhere not that it matters for a moveable cache.

January 2008

6th Noted OMY130 Can't believe I was just there New years day & found the other cache. Had some dodgey info on the location of this cache, should have checked myself before heading out. Shall see this friend again soon....

December 2007

30th Moved Knightsy S26° 5.701' E151° 26.179'
The grey mirco cache has been moved NW to a spot with a good view, & camping, boating and fishing opportunities nearby.

Enjoy your caching in the New Year.

29th Found it Knightsy No muggles this morning at 5:45. Found and on the move tomorrow. Thanks YoungOldFella for a good hide.
23rd Did not find it Knightsy I had a go at this one on Sunday morning at 8. There were muggles in the hall preparing for something. Had a quick look under the walk way at the front but I got some interest from others arriving in the car park. Will try again.
8th Moved youngoldfella S26° 40.240' E152° 0.164'
Now moving east. Now hidden on something that resembles my name.
7th Found it youngoldfella Followed the clues and found it. Very clever hide. Lucky for me that there was no one trying to have a BBQ. Will relocate it tomorrow Saturday 8th november 2007.

September 2007

3rd Moved Pantsman80 S26° 32.773' E151° 50.284'
I thought it wasn't far enough out of Brisbane so I have taken in a little further this time.
2nd Found it Pantsman80 Got it under the cover of night again, yet still loads of pepole around "driving past". Now back on it's trip to somewhere new.

August 2007

4th Moved womblywoo S26° 53.106' E152° 6.054'

Hidden on something of similar colour close to a rest stop.
3rd Found it womblywoo Found it tonight, only just realised this was less then 400metres from my house! Will move it on tomorrow!

July 2007

28th Noted Kelvinator78 After seeing the DNF, we went to check on it. Still where we left it, as of 7:45pm.
28th Did not find it Osluxa Made a special trip for this one, eventually finding GZ (at two altitudes). Searched High and Low for GG with no luck. Perhaps I was beaten to it this time or I'm just suffering a little cache blindness.
27th Moved Kelvinator78 S27° 30.395' E152° 58.436'
Now in a new home... Happy hunting!
27th Found it Kelvinator78 Found it easily - great park! Super jungle gym and kids bike track... didn't know it was here. Will find a new location before today is out.
19th Moved Sunshine Toledo S27° 24.271' E153° 3.053'
Govt. Grey is now in a lovely park that some of you may know and have been here before. It is the park our family uses most. He is magnetic. Hope you come to this area and stay a while.
19th Found it Sunshine Toledo Collected at 10:30am. Will find a spot for him soon.
17th Moved Osluxa S27° 28.609' E152° 58.695'
A great place to spend the day
By the Staghorns - NB: Cache is magnetic
I dont think the Brisbane city workers would like you digging around in here
16th Found it Osluxa Kenmore to Clayfield. Hmmmmm - where to now?
I'll place it in the morning.
Note: One mighty fine specimen of a carpet snake was guarding this cache location. I've never seen #1 son jump so high.
Thanks for the hide.

16th Did not find it Dosphoenix Looked all over the structure, not a black/grey box to be seen. Hope someone else isn't as blind as Mrs Nosugref and I were today.
16th Did not find it Nosugrefs Searched high and low and couldn't come up with the little blighter - oh well at least we were able to grab Mr Black.
14th Moved Sunshine Toledo S27° 24.326' E153° 2.939'
"On the Move - Government Grey" has been placed in a more northerly park of Brisbane used for cricket, hockey and softball and it's a great walking area for geocachers and muggles. Across the road are rugby union fields, more cricket ovals and beach volleyball courts too. Across that road from Govt Grey and near the creek bank is a huge gum tree that is my favourite tree. It is the home of hundreds of birds and possums. Several different types of parrots make their nests in that tree. Have a look at it while you are here.
14th Found it Sunshine Toledo Found Govt Grey at 2:00pm today. Quite an easy find as he waited for transport so now, as he has been replaced, we can keep him on the move.
9th Moved Osluxa S27° 30.856' E152° 56.211'
Well ... I got it right this time
9th Found it Osluxa It has returned ... and wasn't to far from home so I thought I'd give the new cache a go on the way home from work.... Bingo got it!
I'll get it re-hidden ASAP and this time I'll check out my GZ properly before placing it.
TFTC
PS: Nicely typed and ordered log book, Seems a shame I'll have to scribble my entry below it.
7th Moved The Mini Mob S27° 23.064' E153° 1.839'
Funnily enough, when Osluxa phoned caughtatwork to advise him of Goverment Grey's demise, we were within earshot! No prob's says caughtatwork & promptly creates a clone for us to take back to Brisbane.
4th Noted Osluxa Just in case others are wondering what has happened to 'Government Grey' I have some bad and some good news.
I thought it best to post a log to keep interested parties informed.
We grabbed the Cache the other morning and the same day we went on a bike ride to hide it in a new location.
#1 son spotted what appeared to be a fabulous spot. A large grey flood light on the fence line of a local baseball field.
I said "great, no muggles around, go for it" Seconds later with an absolute look of horror he turned around "I think it's gone" - (perhaps even a hint of a tear)...... WHAT!!!
What happened is the small hole at the base of this floodlight, concealed a 3 metre hole.... straight down.
We rode home grabbed coathangers magnets, and gaffa tape and spent the rest of the morning trying to fish it out.... NO LUCK!
Ohh.... I said there was some good news....I have spoken to the owner of the cache, who took it surprisingly well. A replacement will appear soon.... So, watch this space.
1st Found it Osluxa Couldn't resist grabbing a local.
I was going to grab on New Years Eve, but teenagers were partying - or should I say stumbling everywhere, so I gave it the 'drive by'. I took the kids with me this morning for a quick snatch and run.
We are going for a short bike ride this morning
(wont be travelling far) so watch this space for the Coords.

28th Moved wingaap S27° 24.993' E152° 59.257'

New location...

It could be a shocking experience!
27th Found it wingaap
Found today. Cache is a little wet. I'll dry it out before moving along.
26th Moved snoosnoo S27° 26.274' E152° 58.948'
GG is back in a new spot
25th Found it snoosnoo Have found it and shall move it along
19th Moved If S27° 26.741' E153° 4.213'
The old GG had been stuck in a log near Buderim for over 4 months. Time to submit the necessary paper work to move it on today.
The GG is getting some fresh air by the Brisbane River as of this afternoon. Keeping watch over the shipping movements.
18th Found it If Oh I found it :)

August 2006

6th Moved thetoads S26° 36.296' E152° 59.584'
Dropped this off during a mountain-bike ride this afternoon.
5th Found it thetoads Found this as our second ever cache. Took it away to be placed again in the morning. Have the site thought out and will post the co-ords ASAP

July 2006

6th Moved THENANKS S26° 30.408' E153° 5.201'
We have taken GG to a place further north for a beach,sun,surf getaway and a view as far as the eye can see .GG has been placed at a spot that is named after that world famous cacher (specializing at night) DAK .Take your time up here and possibly have morning tea on the rocks .The best spot to park is opposite the high school.Enjoy the hunt.
The Nanks .
2nd Found it THENANKS Another uneventful night time cache hunt (not). After looking in the obvious spot under a steel balcony for about 15 minutes,I heard a bang .I quickly stood up and nearly knocked myself out on the steel beam above. It was a security/club manager slamming a bin. He said,"What are you doing under the building?" The only thing I could think of was that someone had left something behind. He said how big? I Don't know. I said it's grey and maybe magnetic. He then said that no-one had handed in anything like that. About five minutes after he left me I found it and had a whoppin', big, huge lump on my head to remember my night cache. Thanks IF for placing and thanks Caughtatwork for the cache.
2nd Found it If S27° 27.224' E153° 4.909'
I was out west today and decided to grab one of either Grey or Red as they are so close to each other. After seeing where Red was, I headed for Govt Grey instead.
The cache now resides in the South East. Anyone for hockey?
1st Moved WitchPig S27° 24.507' E152° 58.931'
Not too hard to find once you figure out where to look. TFTC. It has been fun.
1st Found it WitchPig Retrieved for the final time.
1st Found it garrone S27° 27.527' E152° 59.477'
Couldn't resist heading out and picking you up again! We've placed you in a new location not too far away. Sorry Wingaap, but it is nice to get there first for a change.
1st Did not find it wingaap Headed out this morning in an attempt to tag Government Grey. Rang WitchPig to confirm location. Took late....it'd already been nabbed :(

June 2006

30th Found it WitchPig Just worked out I need to put a found it in before the move part.
30th Moved WitchPig S27° 25.284' E152° 58.816'
I thought I had competition for this one when a car pulled into the same spot at 10pm. Guess they were there for other reasons. Cache has been moved and awaits the next finder.
28th Moved garrone S27° 27.781' E152° 56.768'
Now Grey is back in Brisbane with a view for miles.
26th Found it garrone Yes, I'm afraid that Grey has been retrieved from the country and will be sited tomorrow. The kids did like this site and they made a beeline for the park bench as soon as they left the car. The poor guy sitting at the table didn't know what was going on as 4 kids raced up and started looking under the table. Having just returned to civilisation this evening, we will place the cache tomorrow.
26th Noted Crew 153 The Goondiwindi Grey... oops...Government Grey is up and running again. The Garrones have it in their hot little hands and will log its new location when they can.
11th Moved powellbruce S26° 11.531' E152° 39.589'
The kids will love this location
10th Noted VWNuts OK, I turned on the GPS and found this cache was only 375m from Home.....required about a 1.2km walk to get to it...with my 3yo son we got to within 90m and it started pouring with rain....searched around for about 10mins in the rain then had to give up and walk home....in the rain.....CURSE YOU POWELLBRUCE.....oh well I'll have to see where it ends up.
Graham (the wet one)
10th Found it powellbruce Chased this one all over the city wasn't in the cbd on Friday so as punishment i have run far far away with it. Will hopefully find somewhere to hid it on Sunday(if it stops raining)
9th Moved ruzzelz S27° 20.001' E153° 3.043'
Out for an afternoon geocycle to pickup the new caches from the Hide & Seek Weekend and placed this one. Sorry for the delay.
5th Found it ruzzelz Push button, look up, take cache, walk across.

So close to work. Then my desk is grey - can someone leave it under there next time? I wouldn't want to increase my stress levels looking for a cache?

ruzzelz :)
3rd Noted rong S27° 28.097' E153° 1.404'

17th Found it rong S27° 12.320' E153° 0.917'
Underneath out of the sun
hidden away from every one.
17th Noted Nosugrefs *&%$#@ - drove all the way over to the 'dark side' only to find OMY130 beat us to it. Bugger, it was only about 1.4K's away as well. Oh well next time.
17th Found it OMY130 S27° 11.408' E153° 1.546'
From the beach at the bay, to a pole near a spring.
14th Found it rong S27° 10.676' E153° 1.794'
Verry fishy good area for barby and walk the dog
13th Found it OMY130 S27° 13.492' E153° 6.903'
A small patch of grey is where I hide, one foot off the ground under brown planks of ply.

30th Found it OMY130 S27° 4.047' E152° 55.966'
At the Gold Coast I was resting, toasting my feet


When the Nosgurefs did take me to Compton the street.


Now a new player has taken me away from the park


And hidden me tonight when it's cold and it's dark.


From my perch I see black with a little strip of white


And the road beside isn't made of tar but of a potato chip type.

30th Found it Nosugrefs S27° 36.693' E153° 3.946'
The Grey has been rescued from the dam'd. It is now residing near Pot of Gold, SHABBY SHACKS, Criter Crossing, Trouble etc.
29th Noted garrone S28° 3.003' E153° 16.924'
Smile or be dammed
28th Found it garrone Touche' If! If you leave it in our backyard, then that's not very hard. Great location though, attached to a sign pole within a hedge. However, whilst dad ruled out the median strip steelwork, master 10 found it in only a couple of minutes. Can't replace tonight, but will take for a drive in the morning.
28th Noted If S27° 26.706' E152° 57.131'
The Grey is out west. Keep moving while you look.
27th Found it If If you're going to leave a cache at my front gate then If is going to have to grab it !!
Will drop the Grey off again tomorrow morning :)
Sneaky hide though, with the GG using extra cover and not just relying on its natural cammo !
Half an hour to find and then only found on a whim !
26th Noted ruzzelz Think I've seen this here before.

Think I've seen this here before.
25th Found it garrone S27° 26.828' E153° 3.101'
Finally we found you Government Grey. Anzac Day has been a great day for caching. We have returned you to your quasi government home. As an old electrical man, how could I resist the site of your new location.
23rd Found it Nosugrefs S27° 29.937' E153° 6.252'
OK IF - very funny, Grey was not wet and it still had not caught any fish. We had to introduce a couple of muggles who were fishing right on top of Grey to this 'funny treasure hunt' game to be able to pick Grey up. It's now gone shopping (or close to it anyway) - watch the traffic.
22nd Noted If I had a great little bike ride along the bay this morning. Seems Govt Grey has caught just as many fish as the locals the last few weeks. None!! Maybe its luck will change before someone grabs it!!
17th Did not find it garrone IF, the garrone tribe checked out this site at about 1500 on 17th. We looked high and low and failed to find the cache. Hopefully it is still there, but alas, we failed to retrieve it. It was worth the trip though to watch some guy catch a heap of fish with a cast net. The kids enjoyed that.
14th Noted If Do I detect a lack of keen cachers out there not willing to go and investigate ye olde Government Grey. Surely it's term in office is not up yet!!
Yes the GG is offshore. Bottom of the harbour scheme you see. Try googling the earth.
2nd Noted ruzzelz If
Do you mind confirming the Coords? According to my assessment the cache is off shore a little?

I haven't been to GZ but suspect I know your intended placement area but it is a bit too far to travel on a hunch?

March 2006

30th Found it If S27° 27.985' E153° 14.550'
Got the Grey on my journey to Cleveland this morning. Moved it north a few clicks.
26th Found it Nosugrefs S27° 31.428' E153° 14.652'
The Grey went for a Sunday morning drive.
25th Found it VWNuts S27° 20.215' E153° 0.942'
Dropped off awaiting the next finder......
25th Noted VWNuts I grabbed this one this morning, and will hide again by tonight. Nice hide IF....I rocked up to the carpark and had about 3m to the cache....however that was over the fence and about 6m down to the road... a quick search revealed the cache right in front of the car.....
22nd Found it If S27° 24.258' E153° 3.588'
Walking through town this morning, so couldn't resist looking for the Grey again. Another WitchPig hide had me stretching skywards on tip toes again !! Dropped off Grey on my way to work. Good spot for those with tunnel vision.
21st Did not find it ruzzelz That 11 m covers a lot of different Grey's which my quick lunch time trip failed to reveal. I had a 6 m lock at the possible GZ.

Lucky for the Grey as I was off to Sydney tonight.

ruzzelz
20th Found it WitchPig S27° 28.094' E153° 1.121'
Accuracy was 11 metres when placing this one. A little bit of searching should reveal the cache.
20th Found it If S27° 32.317' E153° 4.764'
Took the bike for a ride to Logan village and Beenleigh today to grab the Grey. It was getting a bit dusty where it was. Dropped it off on my way home. Go and gravatt it !!!
18th Found it OMY130 S27° 48.240' E153° 8.601'
After 2 attempts at finding this, I finally got it. It's now on a great little drive between Yatala & Logan Village. "Restricted"
18th Found it Nosugrefs S27° 43.237' E153° 15.981'
The Grey was lonely. Amazing the amount of people who were at work at 4.55am on a Saturday. Right where The Grey was, the local plastics factory was in full swing which made us look pretty suspicious. Anyway, The Grey has gone to the close country - look where the cane may flood.
15th Noted Critter Cant really explain it witchpig um it was hidden? no no it was in the shadows and if you were to walk down and were not watching where you were walking you may have seen it, thats how i found it anyway take two dogs with you and have them tangled around your legs too, that seemed to help!!!
15th Noted Crew 153 Is that THE Skyline????
15th Found it Deco S27° 28.714' E153° 8.508'
OK, Crew153 has to give me a hand up for this one. Did you know that wasp nests can look like caches at night. lucky they were sleeping!

rehidden at S27 28.714 E153 08.508 just in private property again, but with approval of owner. as for a clue? Skyline.

Cheers Deco
14th Found it If S27° 28.474' E153° 9.302'
Found the little blighter near the water but out of reach. Gave it a poke with a stick and caught it on the way down. Moved east a bit and left it at about the same height. Parking available right at ground zero !!!!
13th Noted ruzzelz The red is now out to play somewhere that is open 24/7.
13th Noted WitchPig S27° 26.468' E153° 2.632'
New coordinates are in, shouldn't prove too hard to find so no additional hints....enjoy!
13th Found it WitchPig Found it easily, will put up new coordinates late this afternoon!
13th Found it wingaap S27° 27.220' E152° 58.859'
12.25
Picked up GG and went to visit some of the local sites.

2.00
Now located at it's new address.
Your clue:

Leaning Pole.....Rubbish!!
13th Noted WitchPig Can you explain at all where it was Critter?
12th Noted wingaap
Oh Critter...so pleased to know that you picked it up for now I know I'm not going blind :)
12th Did not find it wingaap Had a quick look around this afternoon.
Needless to say I didnt discover the little beastie. Must be a great hiding spot IF...you are to be congratulated. Either that or I will have to remember my glasses next visit.

12th Found it Critter S27° 30.270' E152° 56.330'
Finally i get to nab this one every time i have gone to get it someone has beaten me to it! Walked straight up to this one, nice place to hide it IF! Now its in a nice little corner for staff!
11th Did not find it WitchPig Lots of people looking on but the light was fading fast, spent 15 minutes with no joy. This one has the Pig stumped. Nice Hide and I don't even know where it is.
11th Noted If Still there this morning. 'Tis out of view of security cameras, that should help as there aint many places they can't see you :)
10th Noted Nosugrefs Hmmmm we'll have to watch that IF - he's very cagey. I'm sorry we won't be able to play for a while - off to the big smoke on Monday. Come-on southerners you can do it.
10th Noted ruzzelz A rare DNF for the Witch. Looks like the game is bumping up a notch or two.

ruzzelz Smile
9th Noted If OK I love a challenge, I am tempted to leave another clue. But no I won't other than to say it is visible from the walkways with no strange contortions required. The gobbledygook clue should help. Remember you are there to find a cache not look at the view!
9th Did not find it WitchPig Witch - Woke up at 4:30am and thought....hmmm will go and have a look...searched for almost 30mins before the feeling of looking too suss to the traffic and early commuters forced me to stop. Climbing all over that structure, then having the GPS jumped around a bit and not wanting to stick my hands in places I could not see into was enough to convince me that perhaps someone beat me to it....I am guessing it's still there and very well hidden????
9th Did not find it Crew 153 Very large object has a lot of cameras pointed at it. Makes it for hard to deploy stealth mode. Had a quick look but could not locate the object of our attention without attracting attention by performing unnatural physical feats.
8th Found it If S27° 28.243' E153° 4.158'
Swam out to Chandler Aquatic Centre this evening to find this elusive little cache. Yes finally got to it first, although after searching several largish objects in the dark I thought I had indeed been beaten to it again. Couldn't move it as far south as I would like tonight, so I have found a very large object to hide it on instead. Should make for a challenge to find it.

Redeployed. Things are going swimmingly.
7th Found it Crew 153 Didn't need any horse. Dropped in on the way home. Released the cache from the grip hold. Let's see what shape we can make the GoogleEarth log track. May just need a bit of a tail on it.
7th Noted wingaap
I was preparing a couple of horses and a cut lunch to go after this one. I've just been informed that 276 horses were required to move GG to this location. Maybe it's time to let those south of the river have a bit of fun ;)

Happy hunting

6th Found it Nosugrefs Saved from purgatory; The Grey is on the move. Picked the little one up on a work errand. Will log new home late PM today.
5th Found it WitchPig S27° 21.793' E152° 58.426'
The snake isn't open for business until the 18th and even then only between 9am and 5.30pm :) We moved this one further North and the location may prove to be a little tricky for the finder as there is a lot of Grey in close proximity and bad reception for the GPS.
5th Found it wingaap S27° 24.637' E152° 59.509'
Retrieved and redeployed.
Thankfully I had the advantage of height to retrieve it from 'James'. Nide hide Witchpig.

Now...let's hope you're not afraid of giant snakes....for there is a spotlight on one here!

"let there be light"

Happy Hunting
5th Noted WitchPig S27° 22.828' E152° 56.884'
The co-ordinates are up, may be a little tricky to retrieve. If you need a hand look for James, he is at the right height.
5th Found it WitchPig WitchPig snatched it again. Nearly got beaten to it but there was a good five minutes in it. We will place it later today somewhere grey.
5th Noted wingaap S27° 26.459' E152° 59.044'
Please let me know how accurate the coords were for you.....I got a reading "accurate 4mtrs"...first time I've had one like that :)

Your clue:
Power Shot & 222

Just in case you havent been to this area before....there are three caches located nearby.
Nothing like pimping your own caches ;)

Happy hunting
5th Noted flipsnare a good lesson in looking harder *smirk* good to meet Wingaap though....we feel like such newbies!
still.......lots of day left yet!
5th Found it wingaap Arrived on site to find another couple of cachers present.
Managed to nab this before Flipsnare zeroed in on the GZ

Will place very shortly....stay tuned
5th Noted ruzzelz Seems the real challenge is on then. How many times will it move today?
4th Found it WitchPig S27° 27.917' E152° 59.493'
So far today the Witch and I have had a great laugh we have had visitors to one of our houses and they never weeded the garden, visitors to one of our work places and Geoff you never even came in to join us whilst we watched some DVD's on the big screen. With all this laughter it was time to snatch the grey and send it home. Government Grey is where you will find this cache. Well as close as we could get without tripping the sensitive perimeter security.
4th Did not find it OMY130 Left home @ 1/4 to 10, thinking that the smart ones would be inside out of the rain. Wrong. Back home @ 11.30pm to find the grey is moving, somewhere.
4th Found it flipsnare S27° 28.542' E153° 1.160'
found at approx 19.45
on the move...
grey green? green grey?
south or city?
hmm...


(challenge achieved methinks) *grin* perhaps neutral - not north or south??
4th Noted wingaap Watching and waiting Ruzzelz
4th Noted ruzzelz Hmmm looks like I stirred the Witch from her early morning slumber and caused the Nosugrefs some more grief. Unfortunately it appears that the challenge was not achieved but what would we do if the Grey were to leave.

Well tomorrow is gives us yet another day to play and for all geocachers to prevent the escape of the Grey.


4th Did not find it Nosugrefs Right! Went all the way over to 'the other side' and yet again guzzumpt by Ruzzelz. We felt very exposed snooping around peoples front verges early on a Saturday morning. This is getting serious. If you 'Northerners' want to play rough I'll have to move Gov Grey to Sydney or the lower end of the Gold Coast. Only joking, this is good fun eh?
Well we made the most of the trip and did 9 Wingaap specials; if our calculations are correct we passed the 100 finds today. So other than missing Gov Grey it was a productive day.
4th Found it WitchPig S27° 29.176' E152° 59.429'
Oh Ruzzelz was fast this morning. Witch of team WitchPig got up late looking forward to coffee in front of the TV but made the mistake of calling the Pig to let him know it was moved. The Pig being at work highly recommended I go and get it and move it for us...so much for my lazy morning....anyway...new coordinates are in!
4th Found it ruzzelz S27° 27.149' E153° 2.900'
The challenge: Can this Grey be Moved at least three times today.

Nothsiders be nervous and be quick, it is Moving south again. This little baby could easily escape across the river from here.

Oh yes, a quick take at 0618 this morning. It was so close to home just had to jump over and grab it.

3rd Found it If S27° 2.363' E152° 51.901'
Found it again this wet and dreary morning. Took it for a drive to see where it would end up. Watch out for trains!!
2nd Found it WitchPig S27° 25.087' E152° 59.815'
18:15hrs The rain was not going to stop us, this little cache was going to far south in our opinion so we retrieved it.
2nd Noted Nosugrefs S27° 36.348' E153° 3.896'
It may be high voltage, but its definately a low position. When you get there you'll UNDERstand.
2nd Found it Nosugrefs I have to say Crew that you took a very liberal interpretation of Government grey the colour. I give you your due, it was on the approved colour simply extrordinarily well camouflaged. Very well hidden Crew.
2nd Noted Crew 153 S27° 33.377' E153° 3.568'
The Queen would approve. Head high.
1st Found it Crew 153 A neat little park that. sneaky hide. Will relocate soon.

Found on a muggy stormy Brissy arvo - did have to use a stick and jump - Gov Grey on the move again - Mary and Estelle are waitin' for a ride - won't need to step up this time - geohound level :)
26th Noted ruzzelz S27° 23.108' E153° 1.335'
There is sure to be lots of movement around this spot. May not be suitable for geokids or geohounds.

If you're short you may need a step up.

IF must have very long arms or very long legs as this morning's recovery of the cache was definitely not for the vertically challenged.

Lets make this a quick one guys. Try Motorama magic and push some chainwire
19th Found it Nosugrefs Its moving again. Picked up early this morning and we'll move it closer to the city to give the 'northerners'& 'n/westerners' a go. It'll still be southside but in a closer location. Keep watching PM today.
18th Noted Crew 153 Thanks for that Ruzzelz. I was in a hurry and did not have time to check it out properly. Looks like I needed the space in them the first time .

Not for the Vertically Challenged...
16th Found it VWNuts Found this one nice and easy with my 3 year old son at 7.15pm, but had to crack out the climbing gear to retrieve it.....nice hide.
16th Noted caughtatwork S27° 20.781' E153° 4.267'
VWNuts (who haven't got a cacher name set up yet) have rehidden this cache at the above co-ordinates.

They tell me it's not for the Vertially Challenged.


Now, they didn't give me a story so ...


I went to find this magnificent moving cache this evening. Armed only with GPSr and a long pole I was able to scale the dizzying height to grab this well placed cache. While I was utilising my pole however, one of Queenslands finest happened along and asked what I was doing. Well, rather than give the game away I hit him in the head and ran away. That was the right thing to do wasn't it?


When VWNuts gets their cacher name set up then will log a find and I'll delete the note.
16th Noted ruzzelz VWNuts have made the grab at 1915 and will be doing a re hide tonight. (Within 2 hrs from cordinates were out.)
16th Noted ruzzelz S27° 22.765' E153° 0.546'
Sorry about the error in the Coordinates. Went back and checked.


Waiting for a finder. In a peaceful place but you will need to go higher. (Well was peaceful some muggles this afternoon)

15th Did not find it Nosugrefs Guzzumpt by ruzzelz - I'll watch were you place this one for next time. Well done!!

Great concept.

14th Noted caughtatwork S27° 28.010' E153° 1.250'
Just noting the starting co-ordinates for posterity.

It was hidden while I was on a one day business meeting jaunt to the sunny state of Queensland, only a stones throw from my meeting location.

PS. Your state is too hot. Please arrange to lower the temperature by a few degrees :-)
