I think I've just been 'Googled'

One of thier cars passed the bus on Kirkwood Avenue Redding yesterday!

So looks as if Falkirk is in the pipeline.

Goodness, I didn't even think to see if my own house had been 'Googled' and there it is for everyone to see. Looks like I had just mowed the lawn...looks all nice and neat. :D

They are still a few blocks off from our house... Looks like they did the rest in late summer. Maybe they are waiting for the trees to leaf out again!

The little man who is on the street view in the U.K. has become a panda here... Is it a panda in Florida as well?

Cheers,
Sarah

Hi Sarah,

Very observant! The wee man has indeed changed to a panda in Florida and also in New Jersey. :)

Are you trying to confuse me Sarah? Pandas on the street in Glasgow are police cars - or at least they used to be! :lol: :lol:

Then I realised you meant the pointer (man) was now a pointer (panda) ... and it's not even the first thing in the morning :roll:

Yes, the animal that eats bamboo :wink:
I was going to ask if it turned into a polar bear in Canada, but I can't find a place in Canada that has been done yet.
