Went for this one after spending the day in Lavenham visiting and seeing Ye Olde things.

I think we could have approached this one easier than we did. Started out on Lavenham Road to the North, but decided to park as suggested and honestly struggled to find the walking paths - we may have parked too far up. So instead we trudged across a couple of fields till we hit what turned out to be the path - or at least what is marked as such if it doesn't look like one.

This was quite a distance to cover in the low light, we don't mind and are used to this but I think Mrs Fitz is now feeling a little sick from exposure to the cold. Despite the sun today, looking deceptively warm, there was an icy breeze in the air which really had a bite. At least the mud was partially frozen which is blessing compared to some of the mud baths we've trundled through doing caches recently. I know, I know, softy Southerners come from Watford, but I'll have you know my wife is Canadian and I'm a Warwickshire lad myself. Maybe it's the climate where Watford is, that we've become accustomed to less harsher weather conditions, whatever...

Anyway cache was located fairly easily. Took acorns to propogate amongst the hedgerows (no info card in this bag but the wife informs me that Oaks are pretty resilient trees), and if they don't all make it, at least some woodland creatures may get fed for one day... of course teach a woodland creature how to find his own food, he'll feed for a lifetime... or something like that.

TNLNSL TFTC!
