Wondering why I have always been against having one  whistle:


I resisted until about two years ago. I'd be lost without it now  ;)

 drumroll:

I got one here recently... Not strictly necessary in a country that is so small but it has proved itself to be useful....

My car has one built in. I scoffed at first but wouldnt be without it now. I use it even for routes I know well, because the ETA is so useful.
I mostly despair

Mine started "Bonging" like fury at one point yesterday and something was flashing on the screen. Since I can't drive too well without specs on but cannot read without taking them off I pulled my glasses down my nose to peer over the top of them at the device. This caused me to slow right down and bugger me! It was warning me of a speed camera. As I rounded the bend there the sods were, parked at the side of the road in their little van with the cut out hatch in the back door. I paid £55 for it so reckon, saving me a £60 fine and three points, it has more than earned its keep in the first day of use. You could say I am in profit   razz:

Never had one personally but a mate of mine has. We had to go up to some workshop in Norf London once and he reckoned it would do the trick  rubschin:

We ended up squished in a back alley / mews where a Malaysian street party was in full swing. I lowered the passenger window and was handed Chicken Satay  razz:
