Map reading is my new hobby. I bought an A-Z Street Atlas for our town and surrounding area yesterday and I have to say that it’s absolutely fascinating; I can’t put it down.
Mr Man keeps saying “I can’t believe you’re so engrossed in a map!” He thinks I’ve finally gone to Cuckoo Land.
I would, but I haven’t found it on the map yet…

Map reading, eh? Cannot say that I have ever heard of that being a hobby, but whatever floats your boat!
It's a phase I'm going through! Mr Man said he gives it a week! :)
LOL. Maybe I should give you OUR A-Z....more to look at =P
Oooh that would be interesting!
You know what this town is like though Aiders; villages in every direction. I've lived here for most of my 35 years but I never remember which direction each village is. I'm finding it really interesting to see how to get to each village and how they all link together by various A roads. I need more maps though because some of the roads go off the page and I want to know where they go!
Ok, is that too indepth? I am sounding a little strange aren't I?...
Only now you realised you was strange? ^_~ lol
Well that certainly is a new hobby. You should try testing out some of those new roads so we can perhaps get some of your famed road rage stories! he he.
Hehehe good to see you commenting again TP; I've missed you!
Yes, it has been a while since I've written about stupid drivers hasn't it? I'm obviously a much calmer person these days!
A woman with a map is a dangerous thing - I remember giving Debbie G the map once on a trip to the coast - we never arrived. She tells me that women's brains are not designed for such things? I'll probably be sacked from the police for saying all this. Great post as usual.
Thanks Gadget :)
No, you'll be ok, it was Debbie who said womens brains are not designed for such things and she's a woman herself, so you won't be arrested by the pc brigade - this time!
I have to confess that I have never had any sense of direction. On the other hand, one of my friends is fantastic as a drivers mate if you ever have to go on a long trip. Mind you, she's also going back to college to finish her training in brick laying...
You are more than halfway there! Go-go-go! Even if you only make it until Thursday you will have proven Mr Man wrong, lol.
LOL
regarding "Cuckoo Land", I think you are looking at the wrong map.
try the maps for "disc world" and see it its on there
Catherine, I'm sure I'll get back to the map reading soon but I've actually had other distractions this weekend, which I may or may not write about in the near future...
Great! Ian I can't believe you know where it is! (You see, men do have a better sense of direction!) How do I get there?
Having just read your later post, it would seem that not all life's journeys need a map or compass
That is very true Uphilldowndale. And it would seem not all life's journeys even have a map.
Thanks for commenting.
