This was Zaf's first Geohash, and he found himself in Western Park after work. Unforunately I didn't make the 4pm time, but 5:30pm was a respectable time.

Zaf was joined by Ian, who brought the more accurate GPS, and after a bit of hunting (and one slip in the very wet grass/mud), the precise location was found. A posting was made to the wiki, but a dead laptop battery meant that only a quick note, in the wrong place, could be posted.

Photos to come soon.
