Im looking at a couple of trail centre routes (Hamsterley Forest, Durham) but they come as Mem Map data. Ive not got MM on my computer (Anquet instead) so is it possible to convert teh MM file to Anquet, or another easily accessible data piece / software? Please answer gently for not computer techy person!

Yes, GPSBabel is probably the best way to do this. Set the input format to Memory Map Overlay (mmo), and the output to GPX XML.
GPX is a standard format for tracks/waypoints/routes, which is supported by most mapping software, including Anquet (in the latest version anyway).

There is an online version of GPSBabel here, which may be easier to use: http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/gpsbabel/

Thanks all for input on this, I`ll have a look again at Babel; not sure though whether my v06 version Anquet will be up to task, maybe why it was quite cheap for whole of UK??!!
