Nice map Gadget but where's the Pub.
I've always found you can't go wrong if you take directions to the nearest Pub.

The pub's just below where the red line starts - directly opposite the bridge .  Don't take the bypass though - you'll be in Chester before you can blink  :)

Surely you don't want me to modify it do you Paul? I think there's one at the top around the bend as well ? The Sun - maybe  ???

Hello Willaim

I'm not sure what you are doing wrong. To post an image here, it will have to be about 150kb and in, preferably, jpg format - dimensions (say) about 700 max in width. Then below the message, go to 'add a photograph', select browse, find the image file and open (must be unique to RC - append 001 or whatever if it doesn't like the name) . Then just press Send as normal.
