Thanx for the heads up mate.

Interesting how these pictures have only just been updated... They are quite old.
Most of the images are 1-2 years old I think, just takes time to source high res images of each area and then stitch them together. They are getting there, very slowly admitedly

Re: Google Maps

The pics of my area are atleast 5 years old, and not very well stitched together, the houses across the road are duplicated 3 times, it makes my street look twice as long.
