Hello. My name is James. I live in the Glasgow graticule, and was the first man to reach a hashpoint in the 55 -4 area (and indeed any hashpoint in Scotland), less than one month after the cartoon was posted.

Expeditions

So far I have made it to two hashpoints:

• 1 - June 12th, 2008 at Patterton train station car park.

• 2 (almost exactly 27 months later) - September 11th, 2010 in the middle of Dumbarton Road in Bowling.
