Who uses maps anymore?

I'm with V on this one. I don't trust my phone. It does weird things too often.
I'd rather have a (GOOD) paper map any day; as in not one of those ones drawn on location flyers by people who have missed out half the roads. Some of us are counting them as we walk past you know.

And I'm actually a competent map-reader when I'm well.
Road maps. Not great with open land and a compass.

Then again I don't drive. Sat-nav wasn't in the sort of car I could afford, so I'd never used it in my life.

ETA - LJ's post is the only shit-map I approve of.
