Best of luck. I would offer my assistance, but I'm going to be tied up all day and most of the evening on Thursday. Sounds like you don't particularly want support anyway.

solo & no support just means that I'm on my own and have not organised any support which will be a challenge & I have not done this since my first couple of attempts.

Still going strong and as you guessed I'm not finishing at Amersham/Chesham. If the networks holds together looking at a sub 17:15 time but still a long way to go.
