Technology

Now I absolutely love new technology and usually can't wait to get my hands on it, even though most of the time I have to wait because I can't afford it, but thats a whole different story.

most people now have a fair few up to the date technology going on in their lives, that being smart phones, PC's or Mac's, digital home phones, digital TV with HD or 3D tech on it, Sat Nav's etc etc etc I could go on but you get my point.

we to some extent all of this help us to make life easier and more exciting but it also has it's downfalls too.

I was just thinking about this last night as I was asked to drop something off at a friend of friends house, now I have been there twice.

now in the past I have always had a very good memory for getting to places, once I have been one time as long as I go exactly the same way I could get myself back there. I have now notice that I have started to rely on my Sat Nav to get me places and so I take very little notice of where I am or how I got there, so I had not get a clue as the were to go other than it was in West Swindon which is not much help really.

Why I was thinking about it last night was I was over West swindon last night and though I could drop it in but had no clue as to were to go, I though right I need a post code and then I can get there but this is not something you just carry around, especially for friend';s of your friends, in the end i had to just come home and now I have to go out there today with the post code.

I am going to try to get there myself with the sat Nav on silent and only look at it when really necessary, this way I can see if I am just relying on it but don't need to or if I really am getting that lazy (no comments from those that know me about he lazy thing please) so we shall see.

I will let you know the outcome, please let me know if you have similar issues?

Love to you all
Tony
