Participants
Plans
One of two spanning midnight - 2016-08-21 52 1 - 2016-08-22 52 1 - ETA 22:45.
New plan: There's no mileage advantage in pairing these two expeditions so - go at dusk and get a better night's sleep. Tomorrow, see if Monday pairs up with Tuesday.
Expedition
After arriving from the wrong direction my pigeon brain had rotated 180 degrees and I set off in the exact wrong direction. This was soon noticed and I headed the opposite way on almost identical, back alley terrain. A small group of people were sitting round a fire, socialising. In the countryside this would have been logs and branches. As this was urban, they were burning garbage - not so fragrant. The hashpoint was in a parking bay, marked by a pile of soil and rubble. It was a warm evening with rain forecast later. Screaming children were playing across the street.
