Participants
Plans
Given that I'm at university today and have a two hour gap of no classes from 12pm-2pm, I'll probably take a bus to the hash during that time.
Expedition
After leaving the lecture at 12pm, I walked to the bus stop on Frome Rd and took a bus to the geohash. (Conveniently there was one, and I didn't need to do any transfers.)
Attempting to get to the actual geohash location was tricky, as it was further into the house than I was expecting. It was possible for me to access the side of the house, and I hoped that I might be able to get the GPS error radius to just contain the geohash, but it wasn't possible.
Not wanting to give up, I knocked on the door of the house containing the hash and for the first time... had to explain what geohashing is and ask for permission to enter. That was definitely the most awkward I have felt in a long time. Thankfully, the person living there allowed me to enter his backyard, which was enough to get the screenshot and leave (after thanking him probably too many times).
