My sat nav hates Nottingham
« on: 24 June 2008, 21:10:28 »
I took the wife down to Nottingham this afternoon to drop her off for a three day conference. When I tried to put in the postcode my sat nav nearly bust a gut. Once there I knew the way back of course but thought I would try the sat nav anyway. At every turn it tried to send me the wrong way! Seems to work ok in most other places, I asked for an address in London and it worked out the route in about five seconds. :-/

Is there a 'This is where you lock your doors and stare straight ahead' list?  If so Notts city center is just behind the Birmingstan inner city ring

Like I said, just an observation on my part. I was trying to get to NCSL on Triumph Road, but it doesn't exist apparently.
