Sticky kindly offered to post the GPS ref of where I had my off... but the last i heard he was having problems with the thing 'crashing......'

Yes, yes mate.. very funny

Does anyone have Autoroute or similar where they can get me a GPS ref please?? My Autoroute 2001 doesn't have any detail for the Woodhead / Langset area...

Ta!

Al I have got that road (Mortimer road) on my edition of autoroute 2005, but cant place the exact postion of the slight incident , was it past wigtwizzle

Al That road is on google earth but its a matter of findging it, and following it from memory all refs are on there

Ladybower pub is 53-22-30-90" x 1-41-37-80"

53-23-19-90" x 1-39-43-30" is the start of the Mortimer road at the ladybower side, I am not sure where the off was Al, or i could pin point it

Cheers Mick. I've just Googled it and it does look like the spot (just past the Right hander off the S bend that come after the blue 'feeder river' to the resevoir...)

It's either that or the next large S bend further on that leads into a slight RH straight that leads into a smaller S bend with the left turn that heads into Low Bradfield...

But I'm not 100% as I can't visualise the route....

Senior moment?

PS doesn't streetmap.co.uk give you a grid ref or lat/lon position if you can fnd the place?

Alan C

It probably does mate...But I'll soundly rebuff the 'Senior moment' comment by showing that it should be aimed at your good self....

I made it abundantly clear... Nay, Crystal clear that I couldn't visualise the route... So even If I had control of the latest Sat imaging systems that could take a clear picture of Daz's bald spot...... I'd still be buggered..

Alan C

Can anyone there on the night point it out on a map? I can get the Reference from google or another map source.. I just need a pointer as to where it was.....
