I accept they can be very helpful, but today I was driving out of Tesco and she said "you're going the wrong way down a one way street".
Luckily I was compos mentis and realised it was a mistake. I was in the middle of a queue going the same way.
What went wrong?

My psychologist son always says 'Do not suspend your powers of disbelief,' when it comes to sat navs.

Unfortunately I did just that today and took 40 minutes to do a journey that should have taken just ten minutes. confused I shall pay my son more heed in future!
