I have the beginings of a cunning plan to sabotage the NERC Bill......programme ALL BOAT's. RUPP's and UCR's onto the Sat Nav data bases.

Then sit back & see what happens!!!!

What I'd like is a satnav that'll also roll cigarettes.  :?

it reminds me of the film rat race where whoopee goldberg refuses to by a sqirrel from kathy bates and she diverts her over a cliff ..at the bottom it says you should have bought a squirrel lol :lol:  :lol:  :lol: ...hmm wonder what was in the argos truck :?:  :?:  :lol:

Well if people drive down there and they can see it is full of stones etc and not tarmac then I am sorry the drivers are thick and shouldnt be aloud their license.

I noticed the sat nav once tried to send me though my local park, fine but its gated and not accassible to anything bigger than a push bike really :lol:

Love to have tried it and argue the fact though :twisted:

Tom Tom is really good at that, Driving around the Cotswolds if you plug ina  village you often get a green lane.

One track near home I quit in teh Disco as the gully is too deep to go solo, after I turned around (not easy) I did about 100 yards and Tom Tom told me to "Turn around when possible".

I ran up the A1m last night around ferrybridge it was on the new road section they opened up, it was going crazy with the lack of roads to re-direct me back, was quite amusing on my own, kept me going

You really have to use some common sense with these things, my road knowledge is pretty good, too many years in trucks, just handy to have in the background, and for detail work

I saw that in someones 'Daily Mail' this morning. I haven't been up there for ages, it's a beautiful part of the county.
I ought to return

I went to 'Wandahome' (the BWSOW dealer on the roundabout) & as the services aren't signposted until after the new link peels off, it was a bit strange
