Anybody good at navigation?
 

HELP!!!

Anybody out there any good at navigation? If so I need some bodies to help out in the "Navigation Knowhow" attraction at ADVENTURE OVERLAND 2013, weekend of 28-29 September 2013 at Stratford Racecourse, Warwickshire.

To cut a long story short, the guy running the feature has just had to withdraw due to personal reasons, so I'm up XXXXcreek without a paddle ... and because my GPS expert has just fallen overboard, I now don't even know whether to head upstream or down!

The "Navigation Knowhow" attraction is basically a feature whereby visitors to the show can be advised on mapping, GPS/Memory Maps and the like, and even emergency navigation using the sun/stars as a guide (we already have the same type of 'advice centre' for expedition first aid, campervan conversions, bush mechanics, etc.) so obviously it’ll be a popular feature. What we'll do is have a board with a rota, that way individuals can sign up for 1 hour on, 2 hours off. That way nobody will be lumbered there all day long.

So, if you have skills in any of those departments, please contact me via email, my address in on the event website - Home - Adventure Overland Show A free weekend pass awaits any individual who can help extract me from that certain creek I mentioned earlier; ta!

Tom I see you did not get any replies to your request for a navigation expert...but do you know of anyone? We are going on an overland trip to the UAE, and would happily pay someone a day's consultancy to advise us and train us on (mainly) GPS navigation. Do you know of such a person? Your show looks great, so sorry we missed it. Many thanks, Harry.

Yes I can help you Harry. Just sent you an email
Cheers

I'll contact you just as soon as I can find my sextant.

Only just seen this lol
not a expert but after 22 years in the Army & using maps & GPS I know 1 or 2 things, lol
