Expedition

Arrived. -- Sourcerer (talk) @52.1156,.4229 15:12, 9 January 2015 (GMT)

On impulse, I set out on the quest to find the hashpoint. It was in the middle of a soggy puddle on a public footpath. Most rewarding. The weather was dull, mild and breezy and unusually warm for January. The wind was due to explosive cyclogenesis causing 100 mph winds in the North of Scotland. Fortunately the wind was less in Suffolk but it is howling in the chimney as I write this.
