Hull my tom tom thinks is does not exist

[Pesty]

I needed to go to Hull royal infirmary.

whenever I need a hospital in any city say manchester I put destination manchester then points of interest near destination then hospitals et voila I get a list of hospitals.
But it will find a Hull in Germany but not uk

now my tom tom is a year or so old so probably not the latest map but I'm pretty sure Hull existed before sats navs did.

any ideas?

Yep, that's the one. The Norwegians send London a Christmas tree. We sent the Germans Hull. Next town? Nominations invited.

"Hull. My tom tom thinks is does not exist!"

Perhaps it has good taste? But have you tried 'Kingston Upon Hull'?

Do an update, the POI's appear to be out of date...

Have a look on PocketGPSWorld to see if there are any updated free POIs for hospitals etc.

Sat nav says go left.
Sat nav says go right.
Drive off cliff
Ha Ha I didn't say sat nav says!

As mentioned, Hull is actually Kingston-upon-Hull but you'd think Tom-Tom would at least offer it as a suggestion.

Perhaps it's scared?

Having lived in Hull [shudder], it's very very easy to find without a sat-nav. It's only about 10 mins from the Clive Sullivan way (end of the M62 and entrance to Hull).

ETA Parking can be a bugger though at site so leave plenty of time.

My map book has it somewhere at the OTHER end of the M62. I once drove there in the early 90's and it took an age.

Guys finding Hull wasnt the problem. I needed to find the Hospital there. hence I needed to find hull then search for hospitals near destination
