I got losted

Well, sort of. My sister asked me to drive her into town which I said I would so I took her down towards the building college because I know how to get in and out of town that way and while I’m a good driver, I’m not good with navigation. It’s not that I can’t do it, it’s that I’m neurotic and really like to know that someone knows where we are and where we are going.

However, the road was blocked off which I would loop round to return on so I had to go the other way which was a one way system which ended up landing me on Meanwood Road. I didn’t know this at the time though so I classify this as lost as I knew pretty much where I was I just didn’t no what roads and such I needed to take to get back to where I wanted to be. After a quick phone call to my dad we managed to work out where I was and I managed to find my way back (after the phone call, I stopped and turned my engine off because I’m a good driver who doesn’t endanger others by talking on their phone just in case any of you were thinking differently :p).

I think more interestly though it gave me a chance to think on my feet. While it wasn’t particuarly successful, it was a first step. Although at this rate I will have GPS because I have a nice secure footing :p.
