<h1>In the UK</h1>
<p>In an ideal world, we would have a beautifully drawn up survey and
detailed guidebook descriptions of everything ready to show at the BCRA
conference (mid-September). Although we are getting better, it is in fact a
struggle to get these before next expedition ! Life is made particularly
detailed guidebook descriptions of everything ready to show at the
<a href="https://www.hidden.earth/">
Hidden Earth</a>
conference (September). Although we are getting better, it is in fact a
struggle to get these before next expedition. Life is made particularly
difficult when bits of data and description arrive in dribs and drabs,
meaning a lot of piecemeal updating. By the time the majority of expo members
are back in Cambridge, it is at least two months since the return home, all
urgency has been lost and memories have faded. To avoid this, <b>think</b>:</p>

post or visit Cambridge! Get hold of a centre line and draw up your survey

post or visit Cambridge! Get hold of a centre line (ask someone if you don't know how) and draw up your survey
as soon as possible - don't leave it to the start of next term when your
memory will have faded. Some entirely nonsensical surveys <!-- the top of Kiwi
Suit in the 2002 drawn up survey --> have been produced by surveys being drawn
up by people other than the original explorers, in the pub, several months
later</p>

better than the Photo-CD resolution used for the 1996 images..</p>
