Location
Dean Lane, between Winchester and Sparsholt. Two miles from Winchester station, one mile from Weeke. Here's the route from the station to the geohash.
Participants
- Sermoa
- Mapaholic
- DavidMiller - with partner and kids!
- Thepiguy
- Srs0
Plans
Thepiguy and Srs0 are coming on the train for London. Sermoa will meet them at Winchester station, at 13:18. We're going to do a quick tour of Winchester, see the Round Table, the cathedral, the museum, go to the best coffee shop in Winchester (Coffee House on Jewry Street). I'm really tempted to take a taxi to the geohash, think it would be so funny to tell the driver, "Please drive to 51.0763820, -1.3614881"! DavidMiller plus partner and kids are making their own way to the geohash after a walk up St Giles Hill. Mapaholic should hopefully also be able to meet us there. We will have food and drink to share.
Expedition
to come after the event ...

Taxi drives away, driver completely baffled as to why we wanted to stop in the middle of nowhere!

Farmer Nicholas signed the geohashing marker for us! FTW!!
The marker is left at the edge of the field for by-passers to spot!
Kevin and Steven wanted to visit my cubicle geohash from 2009-08-30 51 -1 - it was almost on the way home, anyway! :)
