Trig points can be quite comforting to come to when out walking (particularly in poor weather) to know that you are not lost! I always liked the one on Beamsley Beacon (I assume it is still there as I've not been for about 5 years now).

I never get lost, (honest), i saw this on FB and this about sums my philosophy of been out and about up."I want to explore. I want to get lost, Figure it out, and then Find my way home."

http://trigpointing.uk/trig/6901?b=3&l=0&c=See the above link for peoples records of visiting this trig point. There is also supposed to be one directly behind the flats where I live on the ring road on the edge of the Latchmere estate, however it seems to have been either demolished or stolen or removed for some reason. see:
