Satnav

Postby traveller » Tue Aug 21, 2012 8:50 pm

I thought I posted this earlier today but don't see it now so maybe I clicked the wrong icon.


I have a little Satnav
It sits there in my car
A Satnav is a driver's friend
It tells you where you are.

I have a little Satnav
I've had it all my life
It’s better than the normal ones
My Satnav is my wife.

It gives me full instructions
Especially how to drive
"It's thirty miles an hour", it says
"You're doing thirty five".

It tells me when to stop and start
And when to use the brake
And tells me that it's never ever
Safe to overtake.

It tells me when a light is red
And when it goes to green
It seems to know instinctively
Just when to intervene.

It lists the vehicles just in front
And all those to the rear
And taking this into account
It specifies my gear.

I'm sure no other driver
Has so helpful a device
For when we leave and lock the car
It still gives its advice.

It fills me up with counselling
Each journey's pretty fraught
So why don't I exchange it
And get a quieter sort?

Ah well, you see, it cleans the house,
Makes sure I'm properly fed,
It washes all my shirts and things
And - keeps me warm in bed!

Despite all these advantages
And my tendency to scoff,
I do wish that once in a while
I could turn the damned thing off!

I have one of those too, She doesn't have a driver's license. We're practising driving. Today we were practising in an abandoned sports field, driving around cones.
"Okay now pass that cone on the left side." Wife turns right.
"No, the left side!" Wife frantically turns steering wheel right.
"No, the other way. Left. Left. LEFT!!!!!"
Wife is now hanging from the right side of the steering wheel, which will not go any further.

<SIGH>

Maybe its me and my tiredness on a 12 hour shift haha

That makes sense, as your looking at the cone you would turn the wheel to the right so as to pass the cone on its left side (29)
