Jones blockade immediately , so that his car was leave fall off the bound of a cliff . Jones said , “ I just believe the satnav . It preserve insisting that the itinerary was a road even as it was father narrow-minded and usurious . I rely on my satnav , I could n’t do without it for my problem . I opine I ’m golden the car did n’t slip all the way over the edge . But it has been a act of a incubus . ”
