Revision as of 15:55, 27 November 2016

Location

A field near Mettingham, Suffolk, UK, 600 metres from a retro point.

Participants

Sourcerer

Plans

Four of four spanning midnight.

2015-09-11 52 1 Retro - 2016-11-26 52 1 - 2014-02-07 52 1 Retro - 2016-11-27 52 1 - ETA 00:00.

Expedition

Midnight

It was a damp evening with light drizzle. There was a handy parking place. A short trek along the Angles Way with a few orthogonal paces led to the hashpoint. My phone battery was flat, hence the lack of my usual live upload.

Next morning

So I had a craving for a pint of Weisen beer and a bacon, brie and cranberry baguette with some exercise thrown in. The weather was good for late November so I set out on an 11.5 mile walk. The hashpoint was about six metres off the Angles Way so re-doing the point was a no brainer. I had charged my phone so here's the delayed live upload.

Arrived again! -- Sourcerer (talk) @52.4545,1.4655 10:29, 27 November 2016 (GMT)

It was a circular walk so a Tron Achievement was no problem. I limited myself to one pint in the pub in order not to cross my own path.

Now I only wonder why I bothered with the point last midnight?
