Hi Lads,
Had a last check on my Garmin tonight, and found that I had not loaded the maps for the west coast of France and northern Spain. Nearly made the same mistake before.

Easy to check, just turn on and go onto map page. Zoom right out, and check that there are grid squares over the area you are going to visit.

Would have had only the base map for the hols!!

For info,

Just noticed this on the ferry booking form;

France / Ireland : Cars - 1 hour before departure; Motorcycles - 1 hour 30 minutes before departure.

Good spot Valkeire.

Gents,

We will have to adjust out timings accordingly. 11.30 still looks good but we will need to adjust travel time (coffee stops) to ensure arrival around 2.30. I spoke to Marco tonight and we can decide on travel plans based on weather prospects on Wednesday evening. Slight adjustment necessary but easily accommodated. We'll talk tomorrow evening.

Iceman.

martin,

Are the albums under a directory called "Music" ? I have a faint recollection of them having to be in such a directory before the garmin will pick them up. This is 'dim distant past' stuff so I could we completely wrong.
Try it and see anyhow.

See you gents at the petrol station beside the Foxhunter at 11.30 in the morning.
