Nice one, Greg.

Some of my friends use their phones but as I'm retired and I know I'm travelling to a new destination I always go on Google Earth on my PC and check out the area/roads/streets well in advance, and how to get there. Then if needed I have a street plan in the car as well. I have copies of the street plan books for all the areas I'm likely to visit, oh, and a magnifying glass as well. The only things that thwart me are roads blocked off for road works and similar, and these are not always flagged up on the net.
