[Wolves] Open Street Map

Hi Ron,

Sounds good. However, are there any decent tutorials to tell you how to
use it? I downloaded that first, then couldn't figure out how to use and
the website says nothing about getting you started. Hence why I started
using Potlach :)

There are quite a few bridges round my way, so any handy tricks and tips
would be very welcome. Around me apart from the very main roads (M5 &
A38) there is very little tracked, so I've recruited DanDan to help me
each weekend now ;)

Cheers,
Barbie.
