Hi

I can be there for about 6pm at the Green Man. I agree with Andy that GPS
is not really needed- just print off some maps either from
walkingpapers.orgor export from OSM and annotate them. Notebook and
camera also useful.  I
don't know if the pub has wifi for any editing demos.  I shall map slice 4
the main high street.

Regards

Brian
