BogMonster Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Yes I am sure you cheeky git it has been that for months! You just can't read! I probably should change it though, because I just checked the GPS and the exact location of the steps into my back porch is in fact 51*41.792' S 57* 50.433 W Can't remember where I got the 51 40 57 51 from, probably on the web somewhere I think. You still won't spot my 90 on Gargle Urf because it's in the garage Never tried GargleUrf what is the detail like? No BB here, no work...

OK in that case from the Globe you head east take the second road on the right then first left then third right and my house is the third on the right, can't miss it as there as some lumps of oil rig in the garden and a sign saying "Land Rover parking only - all others will be winched" Happy now?
