Location

This was the closest meetup to Cambridge since the project began: an opportunity which could not be missed even on a weekday. It was located in a field on the outskirts of Cottenham.

1pm meetup

JPD and Stephen Turner, who both work in Cottenham, had a meetup at 1pm, arranged at five minutes' notice.

The nearest road ran about 200m away from the point. We made the mistake of entering the driveway of the adjacent farmhouse in an attempt to get a little closer and were (rightly) reprimanded by the owner.
