Are you on Garmin Connect Frank? We could monitor your excursions into the ‘outback’. We keep an eTrex20 running during our walks. Then we put it on Garmin Connect. It settles arguments over how far we’ve walked and it proves to the kids that there’s life in the oldies yet. I ran it on Zephyr’s first outing up the Trent, so I’ll be able to record the ‘astro-boat’s travels and view them on-line against satellite photography from my armchair in a few years time. Dave
