You must be behind the times over there!

My place has been on it for ages, and I live way out in the bush!

I can go down my road and seee my drive and letterbox.

(it all looks a bit different now, unfortunately)

yes i think he's standing in his front garden quite near the pavement.

And yes done at different times, if you look at the local pub, as you 'walk' down the road, it changes from bright sunlight to over cast and back again several times as you go along.

For those of you worried about security, anyone at any time can drive past your house and stake it out, they do not need google to do this.

Not sure if this has already been posted

The Times online has 10 bizarre sitings on Google street maps

Have spotted a neighbour who goes for a walk everyday on the main road the neighbour is as clear as day. I recognised him immediately. They have not done my street yet but all around it! In fact all my addresses I wanted to nosey at are not on it yet! So I could not comment on the state of peoples gardens or curtains etc. lol

What a laugh. Thats Bristol by the way.

pmsl

just having look at the families addresses, and down M-i-l road there is someone waving at the camera

Julie - he's actually at the bottom of your road LOL

go to bottom of your road and turn right as if you're going up the hill.... see if you can spot him.
he's near the green.

I have just been browsing roads just outside of Leeds and "walked" past one house that had a line of washing pegged out in the front garden. There was a huge pair of pink bloomers as well as the old man's vests!!

Just walked around York , brilliant, all the places I have been to.... shoppers in Melbourne, water front in Cardiff, most of America... love it...

My house is close to the city - will have a look and see what I can find, o.h. has to put Google back on here as we lost all the stuff when we had the computer problems and he doesn't like me downloading things, (little does he know lol) but he said he will do it this weekend.

Better get off here, he is home early today and don't want him catching me on here lol

Also tried to get on the estate i used to live on & thats not been done either lol

think the photos of my road were taken last year cos that's when it was being dug up.

I'm sooo excited :-) Have been looking at the properties left in my other 3 x gt grandfather's will and some of them are still there :-)

sorry Lynda, think I will be taking my sis on this walk instead !!!

xxxxxxxxxx

There were interviews on tv yesterday evening re google and they said you can have your home blanked out if you want.

Will have a look later, knowing our luck they will do our street when all the new horrible bright blue bins are outside waiting to be emptied. They look awful.

On BBC Web Site,

People are now complaining about their houses being photographed ,so Google Street are having to black out houses after the complaints.

When you think of it ,I suppose its a criminals paradise ...!!

Doh, I live on the edge of the abyss ! Just as I'm sailing down the high street to the top of my road..... Blackness, no further images , darn it !

It was a nice sunny day when they took the pictures, hmmmm when was that ! LOL

OH MY GOD !!! This is fantastic :-))) I have just found the pub where my 3 x great grandfather was publican in 1851 :-)))))))) I had absolutely no idea it was still there!!!

Can anyone tell me when the images were captured please? I can feel a walking tour of Poplar coming on Lynda :-))

I'm looking for some of the little roads and they don't seem to be included - I can move along East India Dock Road for example, but can't turn into Jeremiah Street.
Still, it'll keep me out of trouble for a while :-))
xxxxxxxxx

I wonder when it was taken as my car is out on the street & i don't normally park out there lol

Looks like it was taken on a Tuesday as my cousin has the bin ready lol
