About

Josh/dr-spangle goes to university at Swansea (in graticule 51, -3, but spends holidays with family in 52, -0. He doesn't own any GPS unit or smart phone, but has a laptop and can print and read maps. No motorised transport either, just a bicycle and walking boots. Might get lost or confused near hashpoints, if you see me, just say hi :)

Geohashes

  • 2012-09-10 52,-0 Second geohash, cycled from Oundle to the hash, was a little way into a private airfield. met Ben there. Cycled back.
  • 2011-10-19 51,-4 My first (and currently only) geohash, I was dragged along by Ed, more specifically Rhian cornered me as I was about to enter my flat and convinced me to go. I then convinced Ciaran to come, I am unsure if this is elligible for the Drag-along achievement or not.


Planned Geohashes

  • 2012-09-12: 52,-0 and 52,0, hoping for a double bicycle tron no batteries geohash. Going from Oundle and ending up back in Oundle. (Not sure if this counts, as I currently live in Stanwick, but will live in Oundle in possibly a week?)
