Hi Simon & welcome!
I'd thought I get a welcome in as I usually don't bother but felt guilty about it today for some reason.

I travelled round Wales in an old Fiat in 1969.
When I entered Anglesey I got into a knot, I drove round in circles on tiny roads and had to leave again, running short of petrol !
