Expedition

Sourcerer (Neil) had a meeting in Norwich so he took a slightly longer route to include the hashpoint. Techno-chaos nearly ruined this outing. All Neil's batteries ran out shortly after reaching the hashpoint. This made the return trip more interesting. The setting moon and sunset glow in the west were used to navigate back to the main Norwich road. Once this was located, the rest was easy.

The batteries were several years old and had been lasting shorter times recently so this morning, Amazon got an order for replacements. In a couple of weeks time he'll be doing another leg of his walk across Europe. Failed satnav batteries would be a big inconvenience!
