<p>and three people avoiding caving (plus current typist).
<p>Below is the autogenerated GPS location, taken from the EXIF data on the .jpg file. However you can see that it is several hundred metres to the south of the potato hut, and this photo is clearly inside the hut. So this illustrates (again) why GPS locations on photos are to be treated with caution.
