It might, but I didn't want it to get too close, if you know what I mean

 

[Crispin]

ok, so a few streets away from that?

 

[Chas]

Yes, I tried making it Morden Tube station, but it doesn't plat.

Here's why: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=&q=Mor ... CBYQ8gEwAA

Google does not understand it. If you put the street next to yours or something else.

I ended up on a Philippine island until I put UK. I started thinking it was plotting where I'd like to be rather than where i am

Still no change, but where it is is close enough to at least give people an idea of where I am.

Aye I had to put in "Cruden Bay, Scotland" to get it to locate me. I could have put in my actual village name and there would be no doubt it would have dropped the marker on my house but as we live in a very sad world where nobody can be trusted on the net I had to use my local town.

agreed. Big brother is watching too much as it is..and other low lifes...If I would put inmy exact coordinates I'd have the same. Loch Lomond will do

Agreed as well I've entered the post code of the Police station in the main town nearest to me, about 3 or 4 miles away

It has stuck the marker right on top of the roof Good luck to anyone turning up there to get a better look @ Fiery

Just been out to my local dump to start getting rid of Christmas & driven past the Cop Shop that I've put my mark on One of the Essex Police Interceptor STi Subarus was parked outside, now that's the kind of security that I'm looking for

PS - I don't think they are called 'Interceptors' any longer Think they are now called the 'Territorial Support Team' TST for short

I don't know what I've done differently, but I've now made my location as my local Police station, as sae70 did, and that's just where it has gone to, so that's OK
