Location

A pig farm near Earsham, Bungay, Norfolk, UK.

Participants

Sourcerer

Expedition - Fail

Neil came within 22 metres of the hash but there was a thick hedge and a field of pigs beyond it. -- Sourcerer @52.4416,1.3980 19:05, 23 November 2011 (GMT)

It was a very dark overcast night close to the new moon so it was hard to see anything. The pigs could be heard grunting and squeaking as pigs do. There might have been a way through the hedge but mixing with pigs is not that great an idea. Introducing disease would really harm the farmer so I kept well away.

Don't murderers dispose of bodies by feeding them to the pigs. I preferred not to see it that was true. In any case I was heading for a meeting in Norwich and wanted to arrive without a coating of manure!

Achievements

Sourcerer earned the No trespassing consolation prize

by almost reaching the (52, 1) geohash on 2011-11-23.
