I finally got it cracked.
I followed the instructions below from another site.
I don't know if I am allowed to mention other sites on here but I thought it might help someone else in the same situation.
Thanks to everyone for their help and suggestions.

POI installations

1. Turn off the write protection of the Memory Card if it is on.

2. Connect the memory card or the navigation device to PC, then create the following path on the memory card: igo8/content/userdata/POI.

3. Download, unzip and copy the .kml files into the POI destination folder. Or download the .kml file straight to the POI folder.

4. Restart your navigation device.

5. Run the navigation software and switch to Advanced mode. Choose the Manage POI icon.

6. Choose downloaded POIs (kml file); then choose Edit and turn on the POI and set the distance of POI icon visibility. The default icon for the new POI is Google Earth's globe so you may want to change it to something else relevant.

7. In the Navigation menu choose Find POI, and choose as Destination if you wish to check it.

Note: some POIs might not be reachable on your map, if the map is not detailed enough.

Sorry about that Fatboyfun.
I have been sat in front of a PC for too long I think my brain is about to pop.
No harm intended.
Thanks again
