Twenty minutes, and leaving early is entirely all right
What happens
Twenty minutes. A short reading, two minutes of quiet, and then whoever wishes to say something may. Many people say nothing.
Where to stand
Anywhere. The back of the green is the quietest and the easiest to leave from, and several people use it every year.
Afterwards
Tea in the hall for anybody who wants it. There is no expectation to come and no one counts.
