Well, they do say that the exception tests the rule(or some say, proves the rule).

If I am going somewhwere I haven't visited before I do usually get on the computer and have a look at a street map.......once I have done that I can usually find my way around.......I just shut my eyes and I can see the map I saw on my computer screen.

Ma and I have never got lost yet(maybe I shouldn't have verbalised that)....though there have been times when she thought we were lost...she just wasn't aware I was taking her back to the coach by an alternative route.
