What time is dinner planned? I'm looking at options to extricate myself from the eastern fringes of mid-Essex, and the only feasible transport option seems to involve pedals.



The only feasible option is camping  :thumbsup:

Well I did last year.

Might just be you and Tomsk  :'(

No Oaky will be there too, that's 3 out of the 4 Elders.  huggy is a bit unreliable when it comes to freeze your bits off camping.  I think you should make the effort  :thumbsup:

I'm still not convinced on the camping but I am actually considering it. Being close to home is good either way and I do like the idea of giving the hubba Hubba a winter test run. I could always pitch it and sleep at home  ;D

I started readjusting the route from the Whalebone yesterday and ended up starting a fresh. This year we will be heading toward the A120 and the Teys before crossing back and passing through the humorously named hamlet(?) of Hornigals (I suspect only visible on OS maps).

There WILL be some COR (only light and very short) and hopefully a couple of other surprises a long the way. For those that are COR averse, believe me, it will be worth the effort of the 500m or so I have in mind.

Absolutely not.  I've moved on, grown up, matured, acquired a measure of sophistication etc.

I do a lot of singing. It depends what, and how tuneful the outcome is supposed to be.

OD is involved. How tuneful do you think it'll be?

Good point. I recall that my pint threw itself off the table last year because it had lost the will to live after OD started to give voice. It will be all I can do to stop it escaping this time round.
