My patch is too small!

Bored at work so did some hi-tec fancy dan calculations using a BTO 2 km tetrad map, a sheet of acetate, a permanent marker, graph paper and a propelling pencil, oh and a calculator to work out the precise area of my patch, and guess what? its too wee! Yes indeedy, for our patch challenge, de patch must be less than 2 square km, but mine is waaaaaaay less - taking up an area of approximately 1.04 square km! Wonder if I expanded in a 100 m wide path, could I reach White's Marsh from here....

or am i doing something really stupid?

Indeed, and I am! Sorry, panic over, please move along, there's nothing to see here...2.11 square km is perfectly acceptable, ahem, arse!
