POI Sub-Category Suggestion - 24hour Garages

[Durotriges]

Apologies if this is actually available and I've missed it, but I think a handy POI category for petrol stations would be those that are open 24 hours.

A number of times I've been really low on fuel in the middle of the night and it would be good to have had POI list to direct me to the nearest one that would be open.

I've been using the POI database for fuel stations that I downloaded from this site and it's really good. I have separated the BP and Texaco POIs from the main database, downloaded them, then downloaded the rest of the Fuel POIs as one database. I have set separate custom-made voice warnings (separately) for BP and Texaco, and one for the rest of the fuel stations together.

All works well, apart from one small anomaly: The POI fuel database with BP and Texaco excluded still appears to contain some Texaco stations, because I have had a few alerts where both my Texaco POI and the Texaco-excluded fuel POIs have been triggered at the same time. I haven't had this with any BP stations yet.

IIRC the Esso garages have the closing time included, and the Tesco ones have the 24hr noted.

That's a good start then!
