Nowadays, I take a photo of the car (with reg plate).

yebbut I keep my camera in the car..

use your phone!


If you have a recent smart phone you can use the GPS to mark the
location too.

If you don't have a smart phone, a tablet, or a surface and you own a
car, and you can read a map, its amazing what you don't need.

a map won't necessarily help you find your car in a car park

Never said it did, it just extends the range of technology you don't
need.

I had an argument with a technophile friend. Full of himself and his
gadgets 'a satnav will always tell you how to get there better than a
map'


How? mine does not know some one way streets and it keeps telling me to do
Uturns when it is illegal, tries to send me up streets with no access etc
etc etc.


Which one is that ?

'Possibly, but it doesn't help me decide where I want to go, does it?'
