‘GLIDES WEAVED SOUPS’

If you’ve guessed this title is a place, then you may either be youthful; IT literate; extremely astute or perhaps all three! The place it refers to is ‘surprisingly’ the entrance to our church, Holy Innocents in Southwater.

What’s in a gobbledegook name anyway? Well, almost everything the world has to offer when it’s divided into a grid of 57 trillion 3 by 3 metre squares. Each square has a three word address that precisely identifies almost any location worldwide (including oceans and seas) to within a square metre; using an App. known as ‘What 3 Words’. This narrows it down more than a traditional grid reference map and makes it easier to remember than a string of numbers.

For example, The Vicarage will be “Emails, Composer, Stopwatch” and the church room is “Unable Blotchy Debit.” Why not try it out with a visit to our church to see the amazing stain glass windows depicting Christ’s Hospital school or the beautiful flower arrangements. Here’s a little exercise you may like to try.

See if you can find what is at the precise locations of the following using ‘What 3 Words’:-

1. “Gangway Rehearsed Drooling.”

2. “Tinted Assemblies Market.”

3. “Paraded Adventure Assemble.”

And send your answers to newssouthwater@gmail.com. The first person to guess all three correctly could have their name printed in the next issue of Southwater News!
