Ah - yes - I meant using a GPS device to find the shortest route to the museum, church, place to eat sort of stuff when walking about in a city centre - not my natural habitat.

They need electricity too, not easily available out on the moors and mountains.

Our last car had built in sat nav - oh dear - anyone following the instructions that gave would end up taking the scenic route most of the time. Since getting rid of it our journey times have become shorter and less fraught - the DH kept trying to make it work properly.

There were lots of rather terse conversations about the direction we were travelling in, if you take my meaning.

I used to always carry a compass, though when driving around in my own area I often navigate by the sun and the radio mast - we live on a ridge and there is a big mast a few hundred yards away that is visible for miles.
