zooming doesn't help

Line up where you want to see in the centre of the screen and keep it central whilst zooming, Mike

Has anyone worked out when this was taken in the CVO area?

You have a lot to answer for Digger. I have an Applemac laptop, so couldn't download googleearth (they are still working on that one), so went over to my parents' place to use their PC. They are really fed up with me, as been on their PC the entire morning...oh, and I had so much to do today.

I had heard that the councils were going to be using satellite technology instead of sending people out to check for unauthorised building works. From what I've seen they could be on to a winner! I was quite shocked to see how many pools there are here...wow!!!!!!! Thank goodness I couldn't zoom in close enough to see my mum skinny dipping in her's!!!

If no one beats me to it and my parents don't throw me off. I'll have a look for your area Digger and post it here.
