GPS is back from repair.

The GPS is back from repair. I sent it off last Thursday and it arrived back in the office on Wednesday (when I was out) so I picked it up on Thursday. They didn't repair it but replaced it with a new one. The new one comes with a UK basemap which is great as I only had the US one on the old unit and the new one has all the neat things like motorways and A-roads (and train stations) on it. The weird thing is the selection of roads that they put on. The A road from Congleton to Sandbach is on, but the one from Congleton to Holmes Chapel isn't. The road map should make it a lot easier to navigate around when I'm driving, although it does make the screen a bit more cluttered. We'll see how it goes tomorrow when I go to the Northwest meetup in Bury. I hope to get several caches in as I've a weeks worth of catching up to do :-)
