*Pam Ayres's new poem*
>>>
>>>     *I have a little Satnav, it sits there in my car.*
>>>
>>>     *A Satnav is a driver's friend it tells you where you are.*
>>>
>>>     *
>>>     *
>>>
>>>     *I have a little Satnav, i've had it all my life.*
>>>
>>>     *It's better than the normal ones, my Satnav is my wife.*
>>>
>>>     *
>>>     It gives me full instructions, especially how to drive*
>>>
>>>     *"It's sixty miles an hour", it says, "You're doing sixty five".*
>>>
>>>     *
>>>     *
>>>
>>>     *It tells me when to stop and start, and when to use the brake*
>>>
>>>     *And tells me that it's never ever, safe to overtake.*
>>>
>>>     *
>>>     It tells me when a light is red, and when it goes to green*
>>>
>>>     *It seems to know instinctively, just when to intervene.*
>>>
>>>     *
>>>     *
>>>
>>>     *It lists the vehicles just in front, and all those to the rear.*
>>>
>>>     *And taking this into account, it specifies my gear.*
>>>
>>>     *
>>>     I'm sure no other driver, has so helpful a device.*
>>>
>>>     *For when we leave and lock the car, it still gives its advice.*
>>>
>>>     *
>>>     *
>>>
>>>     *It fills me up with counselling, each journey's pretty fraught.*
>>>
>>>     *So why don't I exchange it, and get a quieter sort?*
>>>
>>>     *
>>>     Ah well, 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!
>>>     Despite all these advantages, and my tendency to scoff,*
>>>
>>>     *I only wish that now and then, I could turn the blighter off.*
>>>
>>>     *
>>>     *
>>>
