This crash barrier failed to stop us from crashing... energywise - I think we were all getting a little tired and lazy. I went straight to the spot but after a quick peer found nothing - Mrs Fitz checked again and came up trumps!

So this appeared tricky due to all the lurkers nearby smoking and engaged in conversation, with presumably their car parked right in front of the cache. As we stood in front wandering what to do, another truck pulled up the other side of us - the owner pointing to the cache and raising his eyebrows.
I am guessing as this is a Pathfinder Ostrich Farm the ostrich farmers here are in on the game - probably why the other lurkers cared not what we were up to! I can only apologise we didn't stop to talk to the helpful Ostrich farmer, we were all a little tired and wanted to move on.

Ha ha! I see what you did with the hint there - I like it.
We got to see the ostriches run when they saw food coming. After finding the cache, another younger, helpful farmer on a quad bike pointed out the hide to us, we said thanks and then we were on our way... up... another hill!

Found the tree, found the cache, protected by several layers of spider webs, which I tried to photograph but didn't really show up - must get one of those macro lenses.
Anyway, a quick stick and the webs were gone, cache retrieved.

Found by MrBen - whilst I followed GPSr he followed his geosense - and the obvious place really when you think about it.

Ha, this was quite fun. MrBen felt sure it was in one of the hedges, whilst I went right to GZ. Then we decided to look up the hint and, well, I was correct - just looking at the wrong end.
Meanwhile Mrs Fitz had abandoned caching and was regressing back to her schoolgirl days....

Found easily enough... but then I don't think the hint matched the place we found it, but then it looks like a replacement anyway.
