Yup, but it's good to use your brain sometimes too, as accurate map-reading is a skill.
Del's really good at reading them, which is handy with her often being 'co-pilot':)

yup if you have a co that can read a map, its handy.. of course when using a sat nav, you have to qualify any turns as 'logical' before making them.Quote:

Absolutely. Local knowledge trumps Sat Nav every time. Just try using it for a local journey you know well, see what happens.Quote:

a moral tale :D
‘Life Without Pain Has No Meaning’: Arthur Schopenhauer... ‘If I kill you, I destroy a part of the life force that joins us all together. When someone harms another person it is like a snake biting its tail without knowing that it is sinking its fangs into its own flesh Properly understood, other people aren’t external to me. I care what happens to you because in a way you are part of what we are all part of’.
trouble is perhaps people dont spend long enough understanding others. Schopenhauer certainly didnt practice what he preached, as when an old woman was talking outside his door he pushed her down the stairs. he was forced to pay her monies every month until her death, where he showed no compassion: instead he scribble the joke-rhyme ‘obit anus, abit onus‘ (Latin for ‘the old woman dies, the burden goes’)
a bit pricey.. good thing about motability, is insurance is taken care ofQuote:
