What's mildly amusing you today?

The thing is, on foot, I can always eventually find where I need to be. But sometimes I may have gone a very circuitous route :p And I sometimes need someone to tell me the overall direction I need to be heading in.

That's all I want from them. Which general direction. Start throwing streetnames and left turns and T-junctions at me and I've already stopped listening. Because I'm stuck four instructions back from where they're at and have already forgotten instructions one and two.

General direction, one or two landmarks and get me a bit nearer so I can ask someone else for the next bit of direction. Absolutely no point my even attempting to follow full instructions in one go.

But I can't imagine trying to figure my way in a car. Particularly in cities with one way systems and ringroads and stuff.
