It is clear to me that if this were ever to happen again I will call for roadside assistance of any sort.
I would live with the guilt and give whoever came out a grateful tip.
I only hope they get paid danger money.....
I would have been very happy to get guidance from the HA chaps and chapesses and have them pull in behind us, but did not see one whilst I was there.
Having seen them in a few documentary programs I think they do a very good job, and fair play to them.
I have seen them assisting a few people on the last two days drive from here to South Wales, and from North Wales back home.
As an side, I had to drive from South Wales (Swansea way) up to Chester on Wednesday afternoon.
The A4059 north of Penderyn (home of a very good distillery) was the most breathtaking bit of road I have ever driven on. Not for the road, but the vastness of the scenery. Gobsmacking and gave me a funny turn.....
Next time I will stop in a lay-by and just let it wash over me. Huge mountains and just a feeling of other-worldliness due to the vastness of the scenery and being so high up and looking down and across it. Hard to explain, but of you are ever in the area, take a detour....
