Location
In a field just outside Grays, Essex.
Participants
Plans
Well, how can I not take a stab at this one? It's less than three miles from my house; that's practically an honorary Couch Potato!
Expedition
This turned out to be... exactly as easy as I thought it would be. I parked on the kerb opposite the entrance to the field, walked along the edge until I was lined up with the tree from Google Maps, and then paced the 50m across the stubble-filled field until I reached the hash.
The only real concern I had was that the ominous-looking four-wheel-drive vehicle sitting by the field might contain a mob of angry farmers with shotguns... but it didn't, so that was all right.
Photos
What's With All The Windmills?
