Expedition
Waking up this morning in a hotel due to the fact that I was already miles from home on work experience, I found that the hash was only 8.4km from my hotel room. Leaving at 10:55, I walked South along Test Way to Stockbridge. Stopping in a pub called The White Hart, I was inspired by the spirit of geohashing to contribute to the inebriation of several strangers, thus earning my Altruistic Pub Geohash Achievement. Carrying on South, I took the low road through fields and past horses and reached King's Sombourne at just before 12:45. I stopped again to consult a map and then continued uphill between two patches of forest and reached the hash at 1:22 pm.
Although there was a pub in sight of the geohash, I later discovered that I had a drink in the wrong one, so while I can't claim the Pub Geohash achievement, I am claiming a gratuitous ribbon for my efforts.
