Drove to Chigwell Row with the plan of doing two laps around the outside of Hainault Forest. Didn't quite work out to plan as I wasn't feeling too lively, a bit too much going on at the moment so stopped after one. Lovely summer's evening with temperature still in the mid 20s. Nice and shady under the tress.

DFOK Summer Event 2, Lesnes Abbey Woods (SE London).
Fun little score event based on Snooker i.e. collect a "red" control before visiting a "colour". Going well until "Brown" which I struggled to find (even looking at the map now it still doesn't make sense). Felt more like a Sydney SS with temperatures in the mid/high 20s and humid as well.

In the UK sorting out Dad's affairs. Run around the old haunts: From Dad's via fields to Hainault Forest, loop around forest and back same way. Probably not a good idea to have gone out without having eaten given I had already been awake for over 3 hours with jet lag, felt a bit limp towards the end. Had thought about trying to get a map of the permanent course in the forest but given the amount of brambles, stinging nettles and bracken may not be a pleasant experience.
