Help from Welsh members.
« on: 13 February 2012, 20:41:06 »
Tomorrow i've got to deliver 27 tonnes of haz fertilizer to....

       Hirwaen,
         Rhoshirwaun,
           Pwlleli,
             Gwynedd.

  I know how to get to Pwllheli but not a clue what to do when i get there. Best i can get from my google map is a post office in a nearby village. I don't use satnav. If no ideas i've got a phone no. so can call when nearby but if any of you know where they are post a map or directions please, it's all greek to me except Hedlu & Araf!!!!! :D

turn right onto the B4413
keep on B4413 aberdaron road until you reach that postcode it is 32 mins from pwllieli

From Pwllheli:
A499 (signed 'Abersoch') as far as Llanbedrog.
Right turn on to the B4413 (probably signed 'Aberdaron')

As you're driving an artic, I guess it'd be wise to stop after joining the B4413, and give the consignee a ring to confirm directions/see if he could meet you Guy.

HTH mate ;)

Thanks all. I'm usually happy pottering around Wales & know most of it fairly well. In & out of Wrexham ind. est. regularly. I've got maps for Cardiff & the valleys & a few local towns but not ...here! The B4413 looks favourite, that was as close as i could get. Doubt i'll do that in 4.5 hours...close so probably out tomorrow night depending on the reload. They like sending us to Stowmarket from anywhere in the country!!!

  Andy, i've got an irrational issue with satnavs. I can't justify it suffice to say they're high up on "MY" Gay list, i just can't stand the things. I see local folk in £200 Escorts with a £400 screen stuck in the window all lit up going to the co op!! Pillocks. Plus the HGV upgrade to show low bridges, weight & width restrictions is'nt cheap. I had a very vague delivery address in Leicester a while back. A mate's satnav directed me down two un named roads. Glad i ignored it & phoned the customer. Turned out to be south of Hinckley! In an artic you can get into trouble when directed through a housing estate. Not like in a car or van when you turn round anywhere & try again.
     Sorry mate, i'll never buy one. They have thier advantages & are a clever idea but i'm a luddite & fear change. I'm nearly 2 years overdue a free phone upgrade but don't want a blackberry or touchscreen phone. I don't like them either!!!! ::) ::) :y :y
