This hash was on the first day of my two weeks holiday to Cornwall with my long suffering girlfriend, who shall be referred to from now on as 'Jand's girlfriend'. As I haven't yet passed my driving test, there was a small delay before setting off to decide an applicable method of paying for petrol used on the way to the hash, but nevertheless we set off towards St. Erth on our way to visit Land's End.

All in all, a very easy geohash, and I'm delighted to report, my first [[Virgin Graticule]] achievement!

Participants

Expedition

This hash was on the first day of my two weeks holiday to Cornwall with my long suffering girlfriend, who shall be referred to from now on as 'Jand's girlfriend'. As I haven't yet passed my driving test, there was a small delay before setting off to decide an applicable method of paying for petrol used on the way to the hash, but nevertheless we set off towards St. Erth on our way to visit Land's End. I was dropped off in a pub carpark about 100m from the hash and walked up the road, through a gate and was there within 10 seconds. All in all, a very easy geohash, and I'm delighted to report, my first Graticule unlocked achievement!

EDIT: I realised after a while that I also qualified for a Last man standing achievement, rock and roll!
