It's looking like the rules are going to be relaxed this weekend so fingers crossed. That route sounds good to me. I imagine that Snowdonia is going to get most of the traffic once everyone's allowed out so it should be quieter where we're going.

Haha it's a bit of quieter part yes. One of the many reasons I like it.

I can't say the Chocolate cafe will be open, but it's a good landmark. 

What kind of meeting time? The clocks will have gone forwards so 11am BST (UTC+1)?

Here's the exact location of the meet up:

Fingers crossed for a meet up, but if we have to postpone then hopefully we'll get to do it soon. 

And fingers crossed that we will be able to have the wider Shitehoard from all corners come and meet in the future.

I'll agree to anything,

Will you come and fix all my car issues and do the weeding and landscaping in my garden for cups of tea and a beer?

[mitsisigma01]

And mine, 5 cars, 15 bicycles, 3 fences, 2 upvc windows, 1 front door and a boiler. When can you make it?? 

[Sunny Jim]

Just heard on the radio that stay local restrictions in Wales will be lifted from Saturday!

We on then?

[brownnova]

Hmm... stay local goes, but still 6 people from no more than two households... 

[Sunny Jim]

Yeah, just read the details sorry jumped the gun on hearing the headlines. Ah well, a few more weeks wait won't hurt.

 

[mat_the_cat]

We just need to move in with each other then, and it'll be legal.

[Sunny Jim]

Or all visit a place of historic interest...

• There will be a limited opening of outdoor areas of some historic places and gardens;

[eifion]

I'm happy to wait a little longer. The weather forecast for Sunday is pretty poor anyway.

[Cord Fourteener]

What would make us count as an organised activity? Just the fact we're organising it or is there more criteria? If we can organise an 'Organised Outdoor Activity' then we could have a local meetup after April 22nd if things stay as planned. 

 

[brownnova]

I’d agree with that... after the 22nd we make it a ‘club’ event of no more than 30 and jobs a good’un. 

[Cord Fourteener]

Looks like we're having decent weather and suitable rules, let's pick a date. We all have friends and family to see I'm sure, I do anyway. But I think so far I'm free most weekends in May apart from the first. 

Anyone else?

[Skizzer]

I’m a definite maybe, depends a bit on what’s working sufficiently reliably and other unknowns. Currently any weekend is as good as any other for me.

[Spurious]

Are us folk from over the border allowed to enter Wales now? 

I'm like 40 minutes from the border 

 

[dollywobbler]

Can't do 22nd/23rd May but otherwise fairly flexible.

[mat_the_cat]

I can't make the 24 hours between midday on the 15th to the 16th. And given that I'm doing a 24 hour relay race, I may feel inclined to rest on the Sunday afternoon!

But otherwise up for it!

I went to Ynys Mon last Saturday. Traffic was like a Wednesday morning in October.  Not busy, but still enough of it to slow you down occassionally. 

Sister, Father, Mother, and me. 

[Sunny Jim]

I can do any weekend in May.

[brownnova]

Hmm... my weekends in May already looking busy...

Saturdays are better than Sundays for me...

I could do a Saturday ...

Could you make a suggestion that suits you?

[brownnova]

8th and 29th/30th currently best. Others may be ok, I have said I’ll use a Saturday in May to help a mate move house though. 

[Cord Fourteener]

May I call Saturday 8th of May please?

[brownnova]

Likely be the best one for me! 

[eifion]

The 8th would be fine with us, too.

[Cord Fourteener]

Can I suggest this location: Clenching.Custom.Splits at 11am?

Here is a precise what3words address, made of 3 random words. Every 3 metre square in the world has its own unique what3words address. https://w3w.co/clenching.custom.splits

For a ride out A5 west turning left to Mig Neint B4407, turning left on the B4391 and left at the B4212 and back via Llyn Celyn, and left on the B4501 and left at the A5 to the meeting place at Pentrefoelas?

[Sunny Jim]

Sounds great, I'm in!
