    I reckon it would be great if you could add different voices to your sat nav.

    I dropped the dog at my Mam's yesterday morning and picked him up last night. From Washington to Blackburn, it directed me down the A1, A61, A59 and M65.

    Coming back, I ended up on the M6 and wondered where I was going! We then went on the A695, A66 and back on the A1 at Scotch Corner.

    An American I know said he picked an English lady accent for his sat nav as "it sounds sexy".
    Be funny if it's Jo Brand :emoticon-0148-yes: <laugh>

    I can remember you could get Ozzie Osbourne, I always thought that by the time he had mumbled and stuttered his way through the directions you would be past the junction

    Years back, I was showing an elderly relative how sat nav worked and it had a default American female voice.

    We were going to the shops and the relative said "eeeeh she's doing well mind! Fancy her knowing where Sainsburys is considering she's from another country" :emoticon-0102-bigsm
