    Sat Nav

    Back to my beef again. Bearing in mind the stories of people finishing up in fields etc. I would have thought that you could not rely on a route created by a black box especially if towing.

    Weather Europe

    Thanks for all the replies I've tried the French link, just what I was looking for, loads of suns allover, it would be nice if there was a similar one for Spain and Italy. The BBC one seems to be limited to a few towns in each country, unless I'm doing something wrong!

    Weather Europe

    Thanks Ray, I now have two sources of weather, what would be nice is a map of Europe with suns and rain clouds so you could see at a glance which way to head.
