Sat Nav

Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)

Sat Nav

#1 Post by Luxobarge »

I have a little SatNav
It sits there in my car
A SatNav is a driver's friend
It tells you where you are

It tells me when to stop and start
And when to use the brake,
And tells me when it's never ever
Safe to overtake

I'm sure no other driver's car
Has so helpful a device,
For when we leave and lock the car
It still gives me its advice!

I have a little SatNav
I've had it all my life
It isn't like the normal ones -
My SatNav is my wife!

It tells me when a light is red
And when it goes to green -
It seems to know instinctively
Just when to intervene

It gives me full instructions
Especially how to drive -
"It's thirty miles and hour" it says
"You're doing thirty-five"

It lists the vehicles just in front
And all those to the rear,
And taking this into account
It specifies my gear

Despite all these advantages
And my tendency to scoff
I do wish that once in a while
I could turn the damn thing off!

It fills me up with counselling
Each journey's pretty fraught
So why don't I exchange it
And get a quieter sort?

Ah, you see it cleans the house
Makes sure I'm properly fed,
It washes all my shirts and things
And - keeps me warm in bed!

Excellent!

Have also "swiped" it, for others to see.
