An impromptu morning's greenlaning!
I was supposed to be working all day in the Post Office today, as my wife and youngest daughter were booked in for a pampering session at a local hotel's Spa... errr, only they rang first thing this morning and said the therapist had 'phoned in sick! Then, "Ubermeister" who I've known off the Shropshire Suzuki forum - although he actually lives in Nottingham! - called into the shop... he was having a weekend camping and 'laning up in North Wales, and always calls in for ([strike]chocolate[/strike]!) supplies when he's up here. We chatted outside for a while why I admired his Grand Vitara, and I gave him directions to the Whistlestop Cafe for breakfast, and I went back into the shop...
The missus then said, as their appointment had been cancelled, she might as well work the morning, so I was suddenly off until two o'clock, and I said if I'd have known that I could have gone for breakfast with him... "It's not too late", said the wife, so I jumped in the daily driver Jimny and followed him to the cafe' and walked him behind him, much to his surprise!
During breakfast and a good natter, I asked him what his plans were... and he said he was camping in Llandudno overnight and was meeting the rest of his group tomorrow (Saturday), so I offered to show him round a few local greenlanes!
Too last minute, so no Alan with me so out came the Alan replacement!
Just the four greenlanes, took us a couple of hours, but a nice impromptu trip out!

Thanks Guys!
I've just spent an hour mapping out a route for Sunday the 7th of April, another local wander based on a route we did back on the 17th of Sebtember 2017. .
So, when I put the three local wanders all together in Memory Map, I get -..
On that you can see I'm trying to cover all the lanes local to me
Just looking for any I've missed inbetween the three routes now...
