Thanks for Rob for adding the missing footpaths
<http://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/map/hanbury-footpaths_24885#14/52.8432/-1.7341>
(although I've read his blog posts about using umap, seeing is believing).

Obviously we can potentially knock more of these on the head if we
split-up, but then we can't map & chat. One benefit of mappers from
different places is the chance to share perspectives on how, what etc. one
maps.

So I'd like to suggest everyone meets at the rendezvous, and that at least
the first short walk is done as a group.

Regards,

Jerry

PS. There is also a good opportunity to clarify if mapped paths which dont
have the designation tag are rights of way. I'll try and produce a file of
nodes where PRoWs end up on roads, for checking.
