A361 GIGO
Not everyone is familiar with the "magical" UK Road A361 - they don't know what they are missing.
Recently I took the piss out of MSN mapping for route planning in Norway - today I tried to find out the distance up the A361 from Frome to Devizes. Simple - not according to Multimap - join the numbers on the map I got from them (I put via Seend to try and keep it on the A361.) Garbage in - Garbage out.

So what? No comment on Tony Blair signing away our immigration controls?
1) Blair says he will not sign away immigration control
2) Blair signs sign away immigration control - but doesnt tell anyone.
The Leftie Media and Many papers are ignoring this story. The hope to brush it under the carpet.

[makes mental note to avoid using 361 at all costs]
Bloody Brit roads... I think they were planned (if at all) in the days before compasses and longitude had been discovered, a way for locals to have a bit of fun at the expense of strangers.
Not that I care, mind you: I love driving along those little "two-way" roads on which the hedgerows brush against BOTH side mirrors of the car.
Although that bit of 361 around Devizes and Avebury is unbelievably beautiful...

If you get a chance, could you post pictures of the area around Devizes?
