Be interesting to know when it was taken. I think it was done over two different periods of time. That new hotel in town, its half built on some of the photos then nearly finished in others!

Its a mixture of the two. Some of the shots, there are no leaves on the trees, and like I said that new hotel in town, there are differing shots where one it is being built and the next minute is finished.

I'm never at home when these things are done! My car hasn't been on Google Earth or this. I'm disapointed!

Are you just viewing from a birdseye perspective or using the actual street view?

Why? Using that theory, merely driving down a street is a burglars dream.

Yes thats right to a degree.

But on street view you can case someones house from the comfort of your arm chair without arousing any suspicion.

On streetview you can look straight over the 6 foot wall that goes round my garden, fortunateley for me you then get to see my vicious guard dog (not really viscious)
