[[Category:Meetup in {{{lat}}} {{{lon}}}| ]]
The Birmingham East graticule is at latitude 52, longitude -1.
Local Geohashers
- waq will try to attend meetups when he can (when they occur in Leicester/Loughborough).
- krypto & friend will try to be there when he can.
- jez Is a foot or bike distance away from Loughborough only kind of guy. (cars are evil!)
- sminkybazza is also a Lufbra person. Limited to bike, buses and rail and saturdays.
- anseth currently has no car but will attempt to make saturdays.
- PodRED is another Loughborough based person with no car, but will attempt to make meetups when they are reachable
- Becky is Loughborough based but planning to geohash whichever graticule she finds herself in on Saturdays. Car powered but lacking GPS tech.
- Walrus Rider is at Warwick Uni and can only do really close ones that are during termtime.
- RoadieRich is Nottingham based, and is limited to bus, trains, and a pair of old faithful hiking boots. However, he is reliant on public web access, so is not always able to get up-to-date geohashes.
Meetups
For ease I set up a facebook group don't know who uses it but meh.
Notes
There are discussions on the Talk page, please contribute to them.

Is that a field or a really big garden?
- I'm gonna guess its private property, but trying bringing cake to impress the owners who probably live in one of those houses. Good luck!
I brought chocolate biscuits but didn't see anyone to share them with. Hopefully next week will be closer to a town. I went by car, since going by bus would have taken until Tuesday :S - Becky
