so who moved Boxhill....
 
I thought I would tell my sorry tale before anyone else beat me to it ...

So meeting at Boxhill.. fine not a problem i think.. I pull up on the AA routefinder thingy Boxhill. Sorted. Set out this morning and follow said directions perfectly.. to the letter.. infact almost proudly ... only when I turned into a street named Boxhill did I realise not only did I not recognise this place but, there were clearly no other bikers around!!! :smt088

so after a quick phone call later and, much laughter was told that I was in North London and perhaps I wanted to get back on the M25!

I will say I think it completly unfair that routefinder should lie in this manner. :smt093 Furthermore I would also like to add that this does not mean I cant navigate as I clearly got myself to Hamel Hempstead, Boxhill fine using directions.

They were just the wrong directions!!

Oh dear! This is why I prefer looking at proper maps to GPS and routemaps - at least you know which direction you're supposed to be travelling in!

(never mind sweetie, will console you with roast chicken)

You must have navigated that insane roundabout to get to that Boxhill.:D
Another vote for maps here,not only cos I prefere to know where I am,but I don't have a satnav and would struggle to operate it anyway.:rolleyes:

:) I wondered if you are the first. Somehow I doubt it. I like google maps myself - easy to zoom out to see if the route is heading in the right direction on the map.
