*Important Sat Nav News*

For those of you who use a sat.nav then the date of April 6th is very important.

Every nineteen years sat navs evidently "roll back to zero" ( don't ask me for the details ) ,anyway the nineteen years is up on April 6th.

If you don't update your unit it will be inaccurate from this date.

As far as Tom Tom go this page allows you to check:-

Doubtless other manufacturers have much the same.

To say we all rely greatly on sat.navs these days one way or another this has received little publicity,I only stumbled on it by accident.

I hope the aircraft industry is up to speed or your long weekend in Majorca may end up being spent in Dubrovnik.

Gas Stop

Recently whilst browsing round Go Outdoors I came across a Gas Stop device which automatically shuts off the gas should there be a leak.

Had a read of the literature and the web site and it  seemed like a good idea so I purchased one from Prima Leisure.

Easy to install but with one small proviso,the securing nut is not the usual standard size of 30mm.

Gas Stop said it was 25mm but I measured 24.. but in the end I had a similar spanner ground down to fit.

It would have been much better if it was a standard 30mm fitting IMHO.

Anyway Dan Trudgian does a review of it on You Tube,at the end he mentions free spanners* but I couldn't find any evidence of them,perhaps you may have better luck.

* Contacted Gas Stop and the free spanners ended over a year ago.
