Ray I wish you said you were going to see Francis!

I live about 5 minutes from there, you could have come round for a cuppa!

I don't drive but my brother does a lot and has a GPS. I'll ask him what he's got and report back

I bought a pair of chequerboard pigeonbloods,if you look on chensdiscus.co.uk they are still pictured on the breding pairs section,Franicis's price are really good starting around 10 quid and the guy gave me 10% discount as a returning customer.I will take some pics after they have settled and are feeding properly,lovely fish though.

I use the Tom Tom Go, its about 3yrs old now, used it without bother when i had my carpentry business, got me to customers houses without any trouble. The only down side with it is you cant download updated road layouts, so on occasion it can direct you the wrong way if the maps are not upto date.
I dont leave home without it now tho. But I know there are better ones on the market, take a look at the "Gadget show" website or "Which" website for the different specs of all the others on the market.
