Well my "blocking" tactics worked, the house is visible from the main road, but I refused them access onto "our" private drive.... Scooby is safe !

LOL

Bloody hell , they have done our road and in very good quality

We are not there, no cars on the drive so close call
Must have been done in the autumn judging by the leaves on the trees and on the grass. House looks very tidy from the front so am quite pleased

Strange for us as well.
If I guessed the time of the year they did it, then we would have had three or four cars on the driveway. Two scoobs, one mondingo and a crappy citroen.

Now if the citroen was in a lockup, then that counts that out
Me, I was probably driving my scoob
Now that leaves one scoob and one mondingo so how the hell was the good lady driving two cars at once...very odd

I have been told that she is not happy with the state of the lawn as there are *shock horror..a few leaves on the front lawn !! * so she would like the driveway cleaned and brushed, the grass cut and no doubt hoovered, fresh coat of paint on the door and then for me to call Google and get them to come back

Ours shows the Scoob and the youngest's Saxo, which he no longer has. I can estimate the time it was taken by the sun position and that my neighbour's car isn't in shot, she is out only certain hours.

i think sometimes the pictures are taking at different times

for exdample i was walking up the m62 motorway on street view looking for an exit.. i saw the sign on the side of the motorway, so i clicked twice to walk back to the sign and it vanishes.

i walked around in circles and the sign wasnt there, so they must have 100 images of the same road and just put the best ones together..

if that makes any sense.. lol

I remember saying (to the guy in the Disco) "There's one of those Google camera vans".. didn't think for a minute he was actually taking pictures.. he was doing 20mph (I thought they had to stop) Other wise I could have got a good pose in.... Usain Bolt or something

My car is parked in the driveway - thankfully the plates have been blanked out.
Its quite an old image though, because they drive has changed since that.
