Remove this section if you don't want an image at the top (left) of your report.  You should remove the "Image:" or "File:"

Location

The west bank of the River Great Ouse just south of Kings Lynn, at the appropriately named Eau Brink Road.

Participants

Plans

Given that the next day's hashpoint is so near here, Ben plans to combine both into a nighttime expedition, driving up from Cambridge and visiting Saturday's hash just before midnight, and Sunday's hash just after. He's very happy to change those plans or to give other hashers a lift if anyone else is interested.

The Great Ouse is tidal at this point, but, conveniently, low tide is at 00:47 so with a bit of luck the hashpoint will be on the river bank and not in the water.
