Only option we've got here is to return back to Bury St Edmunds or Sudbury, so we opt for the latter and board the 1049 Chambers Boomerang service 750 to Sudbury (Bus Station), arriving there at 1101 on Thursday morning.

Not really wanting to head back to Long Melford, Sudbury or Bury, and still within the "2 hour" ruling, we leave here on the 1347 Chambers service 374, alighting at Clare (Westfield) at 1357 on Thursday, where I believe we can escape these villages...
