Yeah, right .

It's really simple, just a case of conecting the TomTom to the computer and dropping a the file into the "itn" folder that's in the directory on the memory card. You then select it in the TomTom itself.

I don't have it with me now but I'll load it up and give instructions later tonight.

Have you got the rest of the route Phil?

Good idea the TomTom thing - yes please.

Agree Tom Tom upload would be good (I would, put can't get the sofware working on my ancient PC).

Here's the next bit . . . (goes a little wrong at Rabodanges mind you - i.e. it sould loop back to the D909)

And here's the last bit (finishes at Arnage, where people can either stop for a beer - or go off and find the campsite)

That's left me scratching my head a bit Phil.

I see the starting point with the little flag then I can see the waypoint 1. Then a gap with waypoint 2 as a separate route from the North.

Can you explain?

There's ones more bit to come.

Phil

Sorry . . . . that wasn't very clear.

Basically - from '1' . . . .
- Cross bridge,
- Left on D121 (along river heading North)
- In to Rabodanges
- Out of Rabodanges on D239
- Get to D909 (main road) and turn right heading South
- Keep on D909 all the way to Carrouges

Hopefully it's a little detour that will be worth it (you can bet it won't be now I written that).

Still struggling with the b*&^y TomTom. Managed to break mine last night, I think the battery finally gave up. Apparently they do that! Great.

I've now got my Dad's and having one last go to sort the itinerary out tonight. Not as easy as I'd thought as the TomTom like to pick it's own route which isn't the same a Phil has selected. I don't want to be responsible for sending people in all directions over the French countryside. Supposed to be nice thought

Hello Phil,

I'll be calling you as soon as I'm on the ferry! Have printed off the maps but still haven't got a clue. And I know you won't get to read this.

Both dreading and really looking forward to this. Must go and buy some cooking things now or I'll starve to death.

Cheers

James

Well I made it down to Portsmouth . . . . having tea with my sister which is nice.

I've manged to get the route plumbed into my Tom Tom using loads of way points . . . . . but can't share it with you guys unfortunately as my computer id crap (too late now anyway and you'll all be on your way).

I've printed 25 sets of paper maps . . . so hopefully people will be okay.

See you all at the boat.

Phil
