Apparently men are good at directions

Today I was picking up a fellow MR2Roc.org member, who had travelled down from ooop North to buy husband's car. So, I set off in plenty of time, parked up at Leicester station ( what with living 7 miles south of Leicester ) and waited, after texting detailed instructions of how to find me and the zed. ETA came and went, then came a phonecall. After a five minute discussion in which he insisted he was at the taxi rank at short term parking, and I wandered up and down looking for him, we eventually established there was no Top Shop in Leicester ( which he could see ) and that he was in actual fact in Peterborough ?????
Now he has been to my house before AND it says I live in Leicester on my FB profile ! And he's not even blonde.
Anyway, ended up driving up to Peterborough in a thunderstorm - it's alright I didn't get struck by lightening - and doing 80 miles more than I intended to today. I did get lost, but there was a gaggle of lovely workmen who went out of their way to point me in the right direction, after having a bit of a huddle to decide who was brave enough to talk to me :rofl: .
 
Ha! I can't read this without chuckling about my wife. She's got the worst sense of direction in the world. I recently had to briefly visit Sydney on business, catching the train from Birmingham to get to Heathrow.

Wife was dropping me off, so needed the clearest simplest directions to get back home from the centre of Birmingham. After days of 'build up'. As she drops me off, she drives off and immediately takes the wrong turn at the end of the road(as i wave her off). Un-f**king believable!

Apparently I was half way to Singapore before she got home..
