Dan Q posted a note for GC4H3P7 Alleyways of Oxford – Brasenose Lane

This checkin to GC4H3P7 Alleyways of Oxford - Brasenose Lane reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.

Just walking past after getting my lunch and saw this suspicious-looking bunch walking around with that “geocacher look”. Caught you!

TIL that Liechtenstein was the last European country to give women the vote. This followed a referendum in 1984 (in which only men were allowed to vote): 51.3% voted in favour of the change.
