It wasn't so much 'anti-award', more a reaction against being asked by 
some WAB enthusiasts to "..just go to the next square".

This, at times, was quite annoying, especially when it quite obviously 
would require a significant change to ones journey plan.  Going to the 
next chip shop seemed a far better idea.  My waistline seems to have 
recovered!

Driving to the next square for the purposes of the CQ Field Award could 
amount to quite a diversion!
