Sat Navs

Well I finally bit the bullet a couple of weeks ago and bought myself a Sat Nav. Now I know that they arent hugely cheap just yet and that money doesnt grow on trees and all that but hey Id managed to hold off for quite some time, after all its been on my wish list since October time, well atleast one of the models had. I must confess that I quite fancied the Garmin Nuvi 610T but the price drops actually brought the Nuvi 760 into play. I know there is quite a difference between the two but I did like the option of full Europe mapping in addition to the bluetooth phoning and FM transmission to the radio (therefore almost wirefree). Anyway Ive been using it for a week now and I have just got back from a trip to Manchester and I got there and got back in one piece and I didnt get lost (although I did over rule the Sat Nav once, well I thought my way would be better).





Anyway if you faancy a SAt Nav Id give it a try the instructions are quite good, the traffic system seems to work most of the time (although I did sit in a 20 minute tailback and all the emachine told me there was a 1 minute delay about 10 minutes after I got into the traffic, but hey some things do have bugs) the other delays it warned me about were gone by the time I got to them but I had been prepared.

Championship Title 2

OK its been a while and I know that Ive not uploaded the holiday snaps either but Ive not been blogging for a while. I will try and get thenm up at some point although I dont think that it will be too soon as Im not in much this week.

Anyway just returned from the football tonight and like my favourite club Rangers we have taken another trophy to put in the cabinet by winning the Woking Indoor Winter Championship by 3 points.

At the start of the day it looked doubtful as we relying on other results to go our way and for us to win tonight too. The other results went our way with the 3rd placed team beating the 1st placed team then we beat the 2nd bottom placed team to finish top although we went 2-1 down at one point so it looked doubtful at half time. However in the 2nd half we rallied and won through.

It now means I have something else to dust.
