Location

North of Lockerbie, in a field adjacent to the railway line.

Participants

Alexturgid and his girlfriend Kerry.

Plans

No chance of actually getting to the hash as it's too far from the train.

Expedition

Team were heading to Edinburgh for a weekend away and noticed the hash would be spitting distance from the train. Unfortunately there were no windows to spit from, so the bodily fluid proxy wasn't possible. Shortly after Scrabble game was complete, the hash was near. GPS fix was wobbly inside the train so we even managed to get a photo of the hash inside the circle of uncertainty, but not close enough to claim this as a success. Saw the hash site from the train window, but not brave enough to jump out and get back in while the train was whizzing past.
