Sat Navs

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Brian Blessed is a Leeds fan. Thought I'd share that with you.

You don't need to drive to use a satnav. Very handy for guiding you round an unfamiliar city on foot.

Whatever happened to just asking a bobby for directions?
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

because they'd arrest you under terror laws these days.
