Looks very possible, for the first time in ages. The spot itself is certainly physically accessible from the street; to me, the building it's associated with looks like a pub (see the umbrellas in the garden). Geohash landing actually on a pub - couldn't really be more convenient. There's a good chance I'll be there, especially if anyone else makes their plans known here. --Pete
