[Wolves] Updating Tom Tom maps?

[Kevanf1]

Andy.  I tend to get the free updates.  The ones where other users have
submitted corrections for stuff like incorrect one way streets etc.  I
think I've done one paid for update but I tend to leave it for a couple of
years.  All the other stuff they do release freely like software updates
(of course not as in 'free' and open just free monetarily).

Cheers :)
