A telephone is a telehone.... ;D a handset, and a bridge is a two parallel lines..... hang on, will try cut and paste in a min...

LOL ;D ....................omg Lots, can you just nip over and finish the geography homework with sprog please.........................never was my strong point............ :D :)

Just looked in my Street Guide. Bridges are named, but not shown  ::)

UP is correct though.

LOL!! OK do a google search, for map symbols but click the UK search bit or you get the US symbols..... :-*
