[Sir Tigger KC]

However, if everyone else also had Google maps.....

Ron.

I think most people have expensive bits of kit that they can afford to throw out of the window Ron!     

[Bigron]

No, I meant that it would not have been so time-saving if lots of others had also had that utility.

Ron.

[Doctor Gollum]

No, I meant that it would not have been so time-saving if lots of others had also bothered to use that utility.

Ron.

Fixed

Ron.

I know what you meant Ron. 

Apparently google maps is no good though. 

[Bigron]

Ok, sorry.
I've only got an old Tom Tom, which is still useful, but cannot cope with house names, only numbers.
Can any satnav recognise house names?

Ron.

The address databases are only as good as the person programming them...

Be the route I'd take.

Ron.

Google maps only works because lots of other drivers along the various routes are being stalked by their phones contributing.

I believe you can stop that by wearing a tin foil hat.

How is that working out for you?

Fine. You?

[Doctor Gollum]

A bit itchy... but I have yet to wash it with Northamptonshire water

[Varche]

A303, M3, A272, A283, A27, A259 if you want a slightly more scenic route

Almost a straight line too...

Actually scratch that... Your route saves two hours and 30 miles, both of which are a surprise 

It goes almost past my front door, too, in which case I'll WFH, put the kettle on and cost even more time.

Great idea  but we want to get over the channel and away from Calais before dark.

If it's as much of a shithole as I remember, darkness improves it no end...

Neither the ferry nor the tunnel require you to use anything other than the motorway around Calais
