Expedition

I stocked up with food on the way to this geohash. It was raining hard by English standards and there were minor floods requiring careful driving. The nearby town of Beccles made it onto the national news for breaking a rainfall record. No roads were completely blocked though. At the destination there were nice clear tractor tracks and the log below shows my attempt to zero the distance. This was slightly harder than usual. Managing a wind blown umbrella, a GPS receiver and a smart phone really needs three hands. The track log shows me getting closer than the evidence photo suggests. I got quite damp and muddy but not enough for a drowned rat achievement.
