Nokia Sports Track..ed to Kazakhstan and back!

I'm popping out to Kazakhstan, see you in an hour

This, I can assure you is 100% undoctored. I'm not saying that I really went to Kazakhstan and back in such a short time and in a strangely straight line. I certainly can't walk, swim or climb that fast. As for straight line... when I go to foreign places, circles are more common.

No, the above is because I'm cursed! GPS hasn't worked properly for me for quite a while now. Doesn't seem to matter if it's the N95 8GB's built-in GPS or either of my two Bluetooth units. It's a pain as Sports Tracker is one of the few things I've found that can motivate me. If it's always borked it kinda seems pointless. Maybe I should pull my N73 out of not-so-early retirement and see what results I get from that again.

BTW, if anyone from the Tourism Board of Kazakhstan is reading and fancies putting me up for a few days so I can sample their country first hand for myself (me, actually there that is) then feel free to drop me a line.
