Open Invitation to all CL owners

Bakers2 - Thank you for mentioning this.  Yes, of course it is a concern, and with the many fewer CLs now in the handbook, due to losses on the network that haven't been filled by news CLs (despite some effort by the Club recently), I don't think the 'space in the directory' argument washes either.

Although it is of little comfort to those who eschew the Internet whilst traveling, and therefore rely on the OS grid ref (I'm a keen supporter of OS and love Grid Refs!), there is a modern alternative that has recently been developed and is gaining traction with many accommodation providers and even Mercedes who are building it into their car navigation.  It's called What Three Words and amazingly provides a unique 3 word grid reference to every three meter square in the world.  Read about it here.  https://what3words.com/

In case you are wondering - our CL site is located here

and the road entrance is here

The 'selling point' is that words are easier than numbers.

FYI I shared this concept with the Club about 6 months ago, pointing out that it might be worth considering as members often complain that they can't find the entrance to a CL using a Post Code.

Given the random selection of words for any given location, I'm not entirely sure that they are any more memorable other than perhaps a couple of them and they would be locations that you could find your way to without assistance anyway. Clever idea though.

Wow, just how darned clever is that ‘what 3 word’ thing. I checked it out too, happy to say-it worked fine👍🏻😊. Airfields.lazy.sits is below.

i just love technology👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

That may be fine but part of the problem is that not every one has access wifi, which I presume one has to have for this to work!!
