Today we have left behind the damp grey weather of North Wales and headed back to the midlands. Our route took us along a few miles of the A5 which is in places a little on the narrow side for modern traffic. We had a close encounter with a tractor on a bend, that pulled out in front of us while we were moving at about 50 mph, happily we were able to stop in time. A little further on and a truck, that was coming towards us, was barely able to keep to his lane, due to the width of the road. One of its mirrors struck our off side mirror with a bang, our truck being left hand drive, poor Pat nearly needed a change of underclothes. Fortunately the damage was minimal but it was a little too close for comfort.
