Weedy compacted lawn on clay - any advice? (No replies)

Says it all really: my lawn is weedy and mossy, and to make matters worse, it's on clay and quite compacted.
My plan is as follows: treat with lawn weed and feed, and give it a week or so
Then aerate with some kind of tool: any ideas of what works best with clay soil?
Then try to get out the worst of the moss. Someone told me about a moss treatment that doesn't need the moss raking out. Any thoughts on that?
Then treat bald patches with some kind of product with grass-seed in it.
And water.
Is there a better plan that won't require the strength and stamina of an Olympic athlete or a team of garden slaves for a week, or indeed, a new lawn to be laid?
