Location

A meadow north of Mettingham, close to the river Waveney, Suffolk, UK.

Participants

Expedition

This was very close to home, 2.4 km as the crow flies. The meadow was dry until the hashpoint which was in a shallow puddle, just enough to get wet feet. There were no animals in the field so it was easy enough to reach the destination. It was a moon lit night but scattered low clouds were making intermittent drizzle. The temperature was 5.5 Celsius. I had been snoozing and nearly failed to make this expedition. Luckily it was close and the outward journey was only 15 minutes.
