Medium fiery lizards.

[Red Dwarf]

I think this may have been mentioned elsewhere, the incredibly useful app ‘what three words’.

The whole planet is divided into 3m x 3m squares, there is a three word code for each square. Given that postcodes are so hit and miss (I have an Orkney postcode, though I live on the mainland), this is an invaluable tool for finding EXACT locations.
This app is fast becoming the must go to tool for the emergency services, delivery drivers and anyone else that needs precise locations. A pal of mine operates tourist boats in the summer, as an added safety system its without compare. It has the whole planet, including the oceans covered.

Perhaps a very useful tool for finding and passing on camping spots. A local photographer that uses drones is incorporating it into his software, I’m certain many other uses will be found.

As for me? If you want to find my gaff, it’s medium fiery lizards!

Got it on my phones and can use it with the sat nav in the van.

Even something as simple as meeting a pal in a crowded place (remember those?), city centre, station or wherever. Pin pointing any very specific location for whatever the reason.
Then there’s the added bonus of wasting time finding silly word combinations as I mentioned above. Makes a change from doing a jigsaw!

Yes I've seen it very briefly before Marie - I think it has been mentioned on the forum in fact.

I will have a play.

It would do if I was making deliveries, it's a shame some of the delivery don't use it then I wouldn't have to phone them to find out where they've actually delivered my parcel to.

Have you checked to see it exists, Graham?!

PS just checked - 3 popped up, but when selected turned into something else?
Maybe you can have aliases!
