Updating your Sat nav maps

[DHTiling]

:mad2: flipping tom tom..

I went to measure up for tiles on job i am doing next to Newcastle united training ground and i put in the post code as i have not seen the job yet as it wasn't ready ( builder i do work for) and away i go..

Not far from the job it took me to a bloody dead end and kept saying turn left.. turn left.. I bloody can't go left FFs i was shouting..:lol:

Anyway i gave up and phoned the builder.. he said straight away, you need to update your tom tom , a road used to be where those 2 new houses are in front of you..:lol:..

Anyway i got there.. the moral is ,update your maps more often..:smilewinkgrin:

Updated my Tom Tom this week with 360 miles of new roads. I've got an account with them and get sent notifications of updates when there released. If it doesn't show up on Tom Tom then it usually does on my iPhone maps.
