A little-known feature of the Tolpuddle festival has been an eight-mile "hike for freedom" organised by the Prison Officers' Association from Dorchester jail to the Tpuddle site - retracing in reverse the route taken by the original Tolpuddle martyrs.

So at 9 this morning about two dozen of us from the camp came over to Dorchester and began the two-hour walk back to the campsite. Hopefully by the time we get there Kate will have figured out how to get the tent down.
