Arrived. -- Sourcerer (talk) @52.5119,.8446 23:16, 9 February 2015 (GMT)

The Norwich graticule hashpoint for 2015-02-10 52 1 looked reachable so it made sense to attempt this Cambridge point before midnight, aiming for the Norwich point soon after. Google Earth predicted a field full of pigs but, with crop rotation, the pig farming had moved elsewhere. Now it was a straightforward walk along a farm track, public right of way and a short field perimeter.

Foxes were barking and on the return walk, the moon rose in the east above the low clouds, giving a little light. Overhead there was crystal clear starlight. All the sane people were at home, asleep in bed.
