Have you seen our geohashing marker? We'd love to hear from you! Click here to say "hi" and tell us what you've seen!

Curious about what geohashing is? Read more!

Location

Micheldever, Hampshire, UK (on the side of a road very near the train station!)

The geohash according to Google Streetview. Looks like a nice place to stop! :)

Participants

Plans

It's a 4pm meetup! Bring food, juggling balls, games, the lot!

Bluecont may turn up, but this will require a little bit of advance notice regarding plans - it's a bit far to go and a bit too easy to find unless there is a Saturday meet-up happening.

I will definitely be there at 4pm. Hope to see you! -- sermoa 11:05, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Correction - Bluecont will turn up, see you at 4! -- Bluecont 12:19, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

What time exactly are you getting there? The trains may make it easier to arrive slightly after 4. Which is okay if we agree and arrange it to be slightly later. -- sermoa 12:22, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Expedition

Wow, two geohashes in two days! This is a really nice one, right near the Micheldever train station! Should be there for the 4pm meetup! :) -- sermoa 21:16, 28 May 2010 (GMT+01:00)

I have printed and laminated a poster, yay! And there might be another person coming too! :) -- sermoa 14:17, 29 May 2010 (GMT+01:00)

Good, all ready, just about to leave to get the train. -- sermoa 15:24, 29 May 2010 (GMT+01:00)

Am at or close to hash point. Will await others. This phone sucks - bluecont

On our way walking slowly due to little legs :) -- sermoa @51.1827,-1.2672 16:14, 29 May 2010 (GMT+01:00)

Made it! Great event! Going back now :) -- sermoa @51.1849,-1.2698 17:13, 29 May 2010 (GMT+01:00)
