Teddington
There's been a gap in the Teddington area for quite some time. The strip to the east of Bushy Park as far as the Thames was conspicuously incomplete.
Last Sunday the weather was really nice (for January) and so I made a 50Km cycle trip to fill in this area. All of Teddington to the south of the High Street is now complete. It also fully connects my area to the mapping that was done the other side of the river in Kingston as part of the first Fill The Gap mapping party.
So now there is a complete swathe of mapping from central London out to the M25 at Byfleet. A bit of infilling in the Surbiton / New Malden area to the south and Hanworth / Twickenham to the north would complete the whole section between the M3 and A3 right out to the M25.

Goa, India
Virgin territory. I've laid down the first tracks in Panaji, Mapusa and the Fort Aguada areas.
The Fort Aguada peninsula is pretty complete. It's a large hill at the entrance to the Mandovi River. The whole peninsula was made into a defensive fort by the Portugese in 1610. I've tagged most of the fortifications except for one part which is in the grounds of a private home. These are visible on the Osmarender layer if you zoom in close enough.
It would be nice to get the coastlines uploaded as the whole area is currently flooded and coastlines would put a lot of the detail into a better perspective.
