Would you Adam and Eve it!

Spent this morning driving the new Vauxhall Adam Rocks on fabulous roads in the Snowdonia National Park, including some spectacular twisty ones on what is known as the Evo Triangle. It is so called because of a three-sided section of roads that are a favourite test route for the guys who write for Evo magazine, loved by car enthusiasts. Then lunch at the Bodnant Welsh Food centre.

This afternoon, for light entertainment, we went to the world's fastest zip wire - also the longest in the northern hemisphere - that speeds down for 1.1 miles in length over a slate quarry. It takes 50 seconds to swoop like a bird from the top, 500 feet up, cross high over a lake, and right down to the bottom at speeds approaching 100 mph. You wear a special suit, harness, goggles and crash helmet equipped with a camera to record your rapid downward flight. This is where you land at the bottom.

Did I do it? Yes of course! Did I like it? I LOVED it!
