I posted about the armed police staring at the Google-car on another Google thread when Streetview first went live in Leeds. Always asumed local guys took over once it reached our patch Davey. Usually quite a friendly lot though - providing you keep walking as you chat

Good link, Phill. The aerial view of our house shows my car parked outside, and washing on the drier in the back garden. Glad I'd washed my car:-) In street view, the car and washing have gone. But I checked. Phew! The car's safe in the garage.

Weird googlestreetview Then & "..now then, now then.."Was looking at St Annes Rd Headingleyhttp://goo.gl/maps/3jkkPIf you navigate forwards with your 'up' arrow on keyboard and keep looking left, suddenly Morfitts Heating Engineers appears then vanishes where the flats are now.Used to be an off-license further along oppo Chapel Lane (now also flats) and there's an old Farm House sort of thing now squeezed between these two blocks.

Numbers - 32:23("..if you fail to do this, you will be sinning against the Lord.)...You may be sure that your sin will find you out."Amazing they foresaw the advent of Google Streetview all those years ago.At school they used to to tell us not to do anything "that you'd not do if your Mum, Dad or a Policeman were stood behind you".We'd speculate whether it'd be ok if the Policeman your Mum was with a copper who wasn't your Dad, and if so, why
