It is also recommended that when returning home, avoid any increase in altitude and head towards Bangor and the A55."
Also Stoney can be a Level 2 dive if the weather is really bad. I would just plan it as an altitude dive. If you're asking me about this in an exam context then I would obviously use Level 2's and transfer tables.

In reality I would just spend a little longer eating a post-dive butty and having a post-dive drink before heading home.
