I have 'volunteered' to help Mrs Tomsk with sorting the parish magazines for the distributors on Friday afternoon. Usually we're done by 18:00 (and it takes about 2 hours to get across to Gt Tey, avoiding the worst of the main roads), so if I have everything packed and ready well in advance, I should be at the Chequers for 20:00, wind, weather and a ton of camping gear permitting. I'm tempted by the COR route from Pattiswick to Coggeshall though ...
