Pamela I had just got my first caravan aheavy wood one about 30 yrs ago you couldn't go above 50mph as it would fishtail and wasn't doing my headache any good we were off to wilsons prom.and never having been that way before I was (trying)to teach my wife how to read a map? I pointed out that yo u looked at the sign posts and read the route no.and followed that number to where you were going we were on th princes H/way at the time,
WELL!I also told her to look for the Yannaki turnoff to the Prom we had been going for ages and stopped for petrol so I asked the chap how to get to the Prom God he says your miles away you've come to far the only way to go from here is over the divide looking at the car he said you should be O.K.as I had a large Jaguar at the time so we back tracked and words were exchanged which could have finished in the divorce courts but there were none around.this was the first time I'd swore at her and the kids weren't amused anyway we turned off the road over the hill which finished' part way up and there was.nt any indication of how to get down so we carried on over the unformed track trying all the while to remember some more choice words ,we did find the other bit of road and arrived at last at the promthenI asked her my wife!how she read the map and why she didn't tell me were the turn off was. well she replied I couldn't remember the word Yannaki so decided to keep on the same road(to Lakes Entrance by the way)then??? i noticed that she read the map upside down why the hell do you read it that way i screamed well she said you told me that we go down this road so I turned the map round so i could follow it "down"but I cant read the words then, and that's why i missed that turnoff, well there is female logic and male logic and never the twain shall meet you cant win em all we are still together after 65 yrs.I've just learned to roll with the punches ( categories: )
