Expedition
Sourcerer (Neil) spotted that the hash point was only 850 metres west of the Greenwich Meridian and there was another hashpoint 850 metres east. This was the ideal opportunity to collect two easy hashes, very close to each other. For this hash point he didn't even need to get out of the car. The distance to the GPS waymark dropped to 1 metre as he drove along the street. This was point 3 of a quad hash.
