Post codes and grid references

During the Preston meeting the other night I confidently said that there must be a website to convert OS references to postcodes and vice versa easily.

I have since found this one, which is pretty handy as it a) is free, b) seems to work and c) actually is very useful.

You can either enter a 10 digit GR (you need the prefix letters) or click on a Google map. Once it returns the information, simply by a right-click you can open a new tab with the OS1:50000 map and the point indicated on it.

Spare remote control car for Rally Club?

Submitted by LucyF on

If anyone has a remote control car tucked away in a loft or garage which doesn't get used any more, would you mind donating or lending it to KEGS Motorsport - the rally club I have set up at our school?   My idea being that apart from training up students on 12 car navigation, we could also have a go at some Targa style events using cones and a remote control car.   It would need to have reasonable handling to be able to go round cones but the range/distance wouldn't need to be too big as the students could walk near it.
