Our beloved Welsh Greg came back for Christmas all the way from his current abode in Washington DC (of all places) and after the success of the tenner vids, we decided to roll back the years with a classic Aldridge to Tamworth mission.

Tracing our exact steps was an unrealistic goal because we don't actually know them, but we were able to do a decent job of it by aiming for known milestones and exploring some new places in between.

On this one you're treated to the classic Geowizard narration, full of stories from the original 2006 mission as well as a walking commentary of the new one.

Naturally there was less mischief and excitement than the original, but we weren't able to completely avoid drama, sharing a tense few minutes inside an all too familiar private estate. We even stumbled across a fascinating tomb in a remote church yard, and had a close encounter with some hefty horses. Of course it all ended with an amber ale and a heart meal in a country pub.
