You don't need to drive to use a satnav. Very handy for guiding you round an unfamiliar city on foot.
(I have satnav on my moby.)

being an old git
i remember that at some point in the not too distant past , it was possible to download various "actors" and voices for sat nav. Ozzy osborne with a few f words was a good one....

Me?
I'm a wizard, I'm never late, nor am I early, I arrive precisely when I mean to.

My Sat Nav is 'Farmer Wink' a Lincolnshire phenomenon.
'Ton reight' Ton leyft' and when you arrive at your destination 'Yove laynded mayut'
