Agreed. It's also quite possible he'd never driven there. It's a short walk from where he'd parked to Wellesley which is minutes from where he lived. He'd have to turn out of there drive down Cottingham a little and turn into Beverly to get to her bench.Going back to the point about putting the address into satnav.
People seem to think that he should have known how to get to Wellesley Avenue because he had been there before. I would just say that it's quite plausible that he didn't pay attention to the names of roads. You can walk or drive around a network of residential streets without absorbing their names and their relation to each other. When I lived in a built-up area like that, if I walked to a shop or a pub through the back streets, I couldn't have told you the names of all the roads I crossed or walked down in the right order.
As I was told, if he'd wanted to help her home it would have been quicker to walk[/QUOTE]
