About a year ago, I broke down in the petrol station in Southwark Bridge
Road and phoned the RAC. The guy took several hours getting to me and told
me that he had gone to "the other Southwark Bridge Road in Bermondsey" and
when he couldn't find me, cancelled the job and went on to do someone else.
I said "I think you mean Southwark Park Road" but he said no, it was the
other Southwark Bridge Road. Wanting his help, I didn't argue and forgot
about it. Tonight I was driving up Jamaica Road and noticed my Tomtom said I
was in Southwark Bridge Road! The same data is used in Google Maps... you'd
think they would have debugged all the main roads by now.
