Expedition

My dad, my brother Ed and I set off for today's hash at 12:45, taking the same route as I did for 2012-05-27 51 -1. I do suspect that Ed only came along as today was the site of a Pub Geohash.

We arrived at The Green Dragon public house at just after 1 o clock and from there it was a simple walk of around 120m down to the hash, (on the downside it was quite damp due to the previous night's rain). Ed and I reached the hash at 1:04, which was mercifully 2m short of a large amount of stinging nettles. We then headed back up to the pub to get our achievement! I left my hash marker on a telegraph pole on the road.

Fun fact: Apparently at the very table at which we sat, in 1963 my Dad had Salt and Vinegar crisps for the very first time. Will the fun ever end? :O
