An Australian pensioner sparked concern when he became lost on a short drive to the shops to buy a newspaper one morning. The 81-year-old man ended up 600km away and explained to police after that he had continued with his journey because he enjoyed driving. The man had been visiting friends in Yass, a town to the south of Sydney in New South Wales when he set off. Eight hours later, having made a wrong turn on the highway, he stopped to ask police for directions on his arrival in Geelong in Victoria. The man says he does not wish to buy a GPS navigation system however, explaining that this will take the fun out of driving.
