... I walked up to the gate to the back garden, at which point the GPS read 3.65m to go. I didn't want to open the gate and charge into their back garden without permission, so I didn't go any further, but I noticed when I got back to the car that the GPS accuracy was hovering around 4m. So... did I get the geohash or not?

Don't take our word for it. GPS_Accuracy spells out exactly how accurate you may be. In general, your device is always a little less accurate then what it says it is. Based on the description, you absolutely got it. Splitdipless 17:56, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
