I'm at my brother's house tonight and we were just reading the comment by Amy on the previous entry about the supermarket app. He just showed me something else just as useful.
On a smart phone, well on mine and on his, is "Places" or "Google Places". You can type in "supermarkets" and it shows you a list of all those nearby. It tells you the distance of each one from your current location and you can choose to see one on a map, and you can get walking or driving directions. Fantastic!!
We are two Australians who lived the dream and spent 20 months as liveaboards on narrowboat Parisien Star. Life before.... during.... and after.

Supermarket app
I read about this app for a smart phone. It shows you where the supermarkets are in your vicinity. What a great idea for someone on a narrowboat!
The main criticism seems to be that you need to choose which supermarket chain to show rather than being able to see all the different ones at once. But still, it's a great idea.
Has anybody used it??
