Introduction
I'm Mark and I live within the London West graticule.
I'm hoping to put some more detail on this page soon, but for starters I discovered Geohashing via the T-Mobile G1 app when searching for xkcd apps and it merges my fondness for experimental travel and xkcd. Perfect.
After weeks of joking and threats to friends I finally achieved (and failed) my virgin Hash Attempt on May 31, 2009 and have the appetite for more. Unwittingly I might have set a few hares running with the distance - more detail on my talk page and that of the attempt itself, linked below.
Being in a graticule adjacent to the meridian and based towards the corner of my graticule, I hope some time to achieve a multihash, most achievable in London East for locations around 51.9° / 0.0° and Northampton for locations around 52.0° / -0.7°.
