As it is almost certainly missing I have temporarily disabled the cache and will email the c/o.

I didn't hold out much hope of finding a cache which hasn't had a log for nearly nine years, has never been found on OCUK, doesn't have a hint, and for which the coords may be 30-40m out, but as I was close by while visiting Amberel's VW series I had a look.
I found the strange tree right at the coords but couldn't see the cache there. I looked further afield but there are so many places a cache could be hidden that I would have been very surprised to find it. Perhaps Robin could check it out: it would be shame to lose a cache in such a lovely place.

Copied from my NaviCaching log.
Parked near the pub at Egham Wick and strolled down past the Totem Pole (having already done the nearby cache about a year ago.
This was a very quick find because Tweety Pie was in view. The box was buried in the compost, with just Tweetie Pie showing. I realise now that he must once again have been moved by one of the several people who have signed the log since Robin and June's maintenance visit on Christmas Eve. This wasn't apparent to me while I was at the cache, so I replaced it as I found it, sorry.
The frequent logging of the cache by muggles continues. I feel that this cache must be unique in that it is found so many times by non-cachers and yet remains unscathed (other than being moved). Some of the logs by non-cachers put mine to shame - I usually do no more than sign my (caching) name, keeping the details for the online log. And yet the lack of online logs by those who accidentally find the cache suggests few, if any, ever visit the site or take up the game.
Thanks for an interesting cache,
Rgds, Andy

Unfortunately I don't think we will ever get to find Tweetiepie again as it is archived in Navicache, but I can cross-post my log here for posterity.
Well, what a remarkable find Tweetiepie turned out to be. I suppose his hiding place is alluring and that's what has brought so many muggles to find him. Reading the log book was really quite special and I thought it would be fabulous to share all these chance discoveries with Robin and June and anyone else who decides to take a look here on Navicache. Thus I spent quite a while photographing the pages of the log book at the cache site and then uploading them all. I think we missed one or two pages that might have been stuck together.
We were caching with Heffalump007 and it was he who ventured further from GZ to find Tweetiepie where he expected to find him, whereas I was clambering amongst the rhododendrons, since we had left the listing behind.
It would be a shame to update the coordinates for this cache which are indeed about 30 to 40 metres out, since if muggles can find it by chance, surely cachers can find it by intent.
Altogether a very memorable cache since so many people have entered the spirit of caching by trading items and writing in the log. However, many of the items referred to as left in the cache are not there so perhaps there are other visitors who are more inclined to help themselves and not leave a log. At least they have left the cache and I suppose the enthusiastic writings of others leaves them with a moral obligation not to spoil it.
Thanks for the cache. NC#16, Total#671
