The Lady of the GPS

The Lady of the GPS

 

(True story)

 

A truckie based in Melbourne town

(A huge B-double grade)

Set GPS then headed off

Bound for Adelaide

 

The Lady of the GPS

(Obey at any cost)

Take this street, that street, trust me do

You're bound to not get lost

 

But Lady? streets are narrowing

Don't worry trust me do

You've told me where you want to go

Take trailer with you too

 

(I have complete trust in you....)

 

The truck (B-double) got well stuck

And over-turned a tree

As well as damaging a car

The picture looks at me

 

 

What's that?….

 

Did I program the correct address in ?...

Yeah, I've had some dodgy directions from her in my time. I asked her for the airport once, and to be fair she did direct me there. To a fence on the opposite side to the entrance. I now take advice from Wallace and Gromit - at least it's entertaining. ?
