    Can I suggest you zip them up, and upload them here: http://www.mediafire.com

    Once uploaded, you can then choose to 'share' them and it'll give you a URL.

    If you can then come up of a bit of a description of what's there, and post it here with the link it could be perhaps be added to the first post by Tretts OR, a link to your post could be put in the first post (perhaps) :)

    Failing that, i'll send you an email later :D - thanks tho!

    Send me your email address and I'll email the ZIP file to you. Feel free to upload it.

    can you use the TomTom POI files on a Garmin? I am somewhat stupid when it comes to satnav workings. :) If you can, I'd love to have them too...and think nvh's idea of uploading them somewhere they could be shared would be fab - but happy to send my email address if not.

    I've got a program called POI Converter - you can open up the files then save them as a different format. I'll email the program and POIs over to you but if you're a bit stuck, let me know what Garmin you have and I'll do them for you.
  • We've booked up for this year! I cannot wait! Going to New York (ive never been - hubby has been 5 times) for 5 days on Sep 2nd, and then onto Vegas for 8. Opted for the Flamingo, and I'll probably pay the $25 to upgrade to a Go Room when we get there, im not too fussed really, id sleep anywhere in Vegas :rotfl:

    Busy saving my pennies and creating an holiday plan - think Vegas will be sunbathing through the day - early evening a bit of shopping and sites and then :beer: at night.

    Very excited :T
    Ooo would love to go on this holiday:j lucky you, can i ask did you book via package route or did you do the leg work yourself?

    Expect the Donny and Marie show to be dark for a while. Marie's eighteen year old son Michael died in tragic circumstances last night.

    Awful news. I've met Marie several times and she's a lovely lady and adores all her children. I can't even begin to imagine what she's going through -especially as my own son is the same age and has depression issues. He got a really big hug last night when he got home.

    that's so sad...poor Marie.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?
