This graticule is an awkward one to dwell in, as it is less than 50% land. However, on the rare occasions that the Geohash is on land on a Saturday, and we have nothing better to do (and come on guys, what better IS there to do...?!), we should get together in that spot and...well, talk xkcd, amongst other things.

The Weymouth graticule covers the part of the United Kingdom (UK) from 50° to 51° latitude, and from -3° to -2° longitude. About one third of it is land.

On the rare occasions that the Geohash is on land on a Saturday, and we have nothing better to do (and come on guys, what better IS there to do...?!), we should get together in that spot and...well, talk xkcd, amongst other things. Bring any entertainment you feel necessary, this includes friends, food, drink (including alcohol), musical instruments, Twister, basically, anything you think will enhance the experience.

Stick your name below if you are a fellow xkcdian in this graticule, willing to participate in such events.
