Talk:Townsville, Australia

From Geohashing
Revision as of 20:28, 9 October 2009 by 220.245.204.11 (talk) (added a formatting thingy so floating tables don't encroach badly)
Allow me to propose a format for this page:
Section 1
Stuff about meet-ups and locations.
Add a new sub-section for each date about which you wish to comment.
I'll try and keep it clean, by moving old months to a sub-pages.
Section 2
...I haven't worked out yet what should go here. Let's leave it open.

Not far from the Herveys Range Development Rd, maybe half an hour from Thuringowa. It appears to be a 350m hike through some semi-open bush.

Oh man, it's a stretch. A long drive to a virgin graticule, then either a 550m hike through "scrub" (with possibility of fences) or a ~1km drive/hike along what appears to be a clearing for powerlines...
All that, with two very young children in tow, and probably without GPS access; but I really want a birthday hash. Matty 20:59, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Miscellaneous

Hi Twistie. Do I know you? Matty

Hey, I dunno. I'm a first year IT student at JCU. I have a feeling I have heard your name before but I'm just not sure. -- Twistie

Page Structure

I think it's good having the Saturday map links on the main page, and a brief description for the current/past ones. However, as Simon suggested, I'm quite happy for ephemeral discussions (about attempting hashes and stuff) to live here on the discussion page. If anyone else wants to update the Current Meetup Location section early on Saturdays, you're most welcome. Also, when we start running out of upcoming Saturdays, feel free to chuck in another months' worth of links. Matty
