Nice one Simon, I may take a peek at them. I learnt in the Forces, we have to 'cos Officers with maps are dangerous folk indeed! I like to brush up now and then though, and it is nearly time for my eldest to start learning.
Officers with maps are dangerous folk indeed!
I notice bikething you picked a location within walking distance of a pub - good man
2008 could be the year I tackle my cartographobia
I was extremely tempted by Woodlore's week long course on the topic but I think
handling self-catering and a week in the woods and map reading is a bit much for me.
What I really need though is city map navigation - I've still not cracked it, doesn't
help that quite often roads don't even have names on them
pure natural instinct - no map needed
(even if it is the most remote pub on dartmoor)
Good heavens is that what real maps look like? I've only ever seen A-Z type things and
find them scary enough (on which side of the road is the railway station I've just walked
out of and should I go left or right?) and there's even more informaiton in that one to
process. I give up
Taxi for Jodie. Quite literally
Having said that, that positioning device is v. nifty.
