I have noticed that Tesco are now doing Pharmacy and Opticians in store will there be any new sub categories to match the stores that have the service. _________________ whats on your sat nav |

I would have thought it best to list them under Pharmacy / Opticians or whatever the existing category is and just list them as Tescos.
Which may already be done _________________ Mike

I believe that when you have supermarket type store on a Petrol Station forecourt a POI is added for each. No specific category is set up for "Shop within a shop"... |

Because someone might want to know where his nearest ATM is? He doesn't care whether it's at Tesco or not. |

"'Chav' is often used as a stereotype to refer to white, poorly educated, aggressive youths, but youth and aggression are not the defining attributes of a 'chav'"
I think that is a bit rude...only the wink softens it. _________________ Gee-Pee

knowing some of the email banter sent between myself and m8tjt i took his chav comment as being 100% humour and in no way an insult - however i do see your point as you (rather obviously!) haven't read our emails!

Yes, I realised that from your user names etc that there must be aquaintanship between you two but to me the word is a bit insulting. I take your point though.....a little knowledge etc
