It just so happens that I need to drive from Southampton to Norwich on this day. Passing within about a mile of this hashpoint.

Making a detour adds a little time, but is actually shorter distance-wise - taking a new alternative route past Cambridge that I've never seen before. Isn't that what geohashing is all about?

I need to be in Norwich for 9am so there's potential for a Sunrise geohash here...

Sunrise is at 06:53. Allowing 30 minutes to find the hashpoint in the woods, that means leaving home at about 0430. Yikes!

The weather looks clear overnight, with a small possibility of early morning mist. Luckily, rain is lower than 5% probability.
