Plans

In what must be the most extensively planned geohash in history ... we've had the date set for over a month and it took a long irc chat to find a window of opportunity we could all manage ...!

Macronencer is arriving by car at Reading around 1630, to meet sermoa off a train, and the others off a different train, either at 1630 or 1700. We will all take the car to the hash point - tactics for access to be confirmed...

The .999 is fascinating! It'll be my first geohash in 51,-0 but the longitude line actually runs through the field! We'll probably actuall approach the field from 51,-1 - my home graticule! -- sermoa 22:17, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Expedition

I might not be able to add photos or write this up straight away, so someone else will need to take the reins. I'll get my contributions in by Sunday night, I hope. --macronencer 22:12, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

I can certainly write up but I don't have a good camera with me, so no photos from me. -- sermoa 22:19, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
