A new way to get lost

Aren't the new satellite navigation systems marvellous? Just punch in the postcode of the place you want to go to and follow the instructions. Even on a crosscountry journey that you've never made before, you can be assured that you're taken to where you've asked for.

Alas, like all computer systems, when you screw up you can screw up royally with this one. The BA postcode area is a big one, and a request for BA16 will take you to Street whereas BA14 will take you to Trowbridge. But it was only a little typo!

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
