Location

Just off a dirt road in Fulbourn, near Cambridge.

Participants

Benjw
Sourcerer + dog - ETA 16:00
PaintedJaguar
MrsPaintedJaguar

Plans

Ben has been here before and knows the road is accessible. The hashpoint may be just over a ditch into a field. Ben will cycle over from Kings Hedges to arrive at 4pm, and would love to meet other hashers.

PaintedJaguar and MrsPaintedJaguar will also aim for 4pm. The hashpoint is ideally located for us to pretty easily claim a Juggernaut achievement, with a number of different straight-ish-line routes possible from home to the hashpoint.

Expedition

Arrived. -- Sourcerer (talk) @52.1767,.2339 16:00, 8 August 2015 (GMT+01:00)

Sourcerer (Neil) arrived first, followed quickly by Ben and then the PaintedJaguars. There was the inevitable photo taking including one of circus juggling. Then some general chit chat and toffee - nice. Eventually we departed, heading home or in Sourcerer's case towards 2015-08-09 52 0. Neil spent a happy ten minutes picking burrs and hook grasses out of his socks and met an elderly gentleman who told a story of the naked man walking his dog. Apparently it made the national press. What a pity it was a few days ago. We could have got a drag-along geoflash achievement! It was nice to see everyone. We should do it again sometime.

Just got home -- four hours after I left, from an expedition to a hashpoint 10 km from home... Lovely afternoon; thanks, all. — Benjw _{talk} 14:29, 8 August 2015 (EDT)
