.............a Mercedes Benz. So the song goes.
Well I already have one of them so I think I will ask the Lord for a Sat-nav. Yesterday I had to collect ebay stuff from various locations in East Anglia. All went well with the first two and then I had to get from Clacton to Lowestoft, easy enough, straight up the A12. However I found myself in Felixstowe Docks.
WTF I thought, have I been asleep? Or was it that blond bird in the Porsche that distracted me? U-turn back to A12 and get to Lowestoft now late. I had instructions written down, over the dock bridge, bear left at the roundabout, second road on the left. Simples. Except no fecking roundabout! I decide to take ever increasing circles until I discover the road as no 'locals' appeared to know. Half an hour later I find another bridge also going across the docks. Oh dear, 
never mind, only one hour and 10 minutes late now.
Managed to find the final pickup in Fakenham without a problem. 281 miles google said the round trip would be, I clocked up 334............Also, next time take reading glasses so I can see a bleeding map. Sometimes I think I'm just too 'old skool' for my own fecking good.
