Generous Scot

Meant to mention. As leaving Berwick on Scottish visit my Sat Nav wouldn't start. Thought I'd cling to the coast.

The realism that the new bridge could be a problem finding etc. was on my mind though ... not worried but a bit perturb I pulled up behind a lorry in lay by about 30 miles off. checking he wasn't having a kip I got his attention.

Told him my Sat Nav was burst and asked regards getting to the new bridge as I thought there'd be new roads / directions etc.

He said ' Could be ... that you need is a Sat Nav'.

He then found an old one. Said he'd only used it a couple of times. Was about two and a half inches square and a 16 years Garmin.

He would take a penny for it. I honestly tried, saying even a fiver!

Worked a treat. O.k was up to date, but a great confident booster. Served me well. Thanks Jock once again where ever you are ....

Took mine back. Store twiddled with it. Asked to try it again. Worked twice and then didn't no more. Took it back to store and had choice of a swap, an different one, or money back. Took money back as will use the wife's this week in Beacon Fells.
