Default My house on Google Earth - Your house on Google Earth...

Google Earth has been well updated in our area and our house is nice and clear now. Not only is the Feekmobile clearly visible but Mrs. Feek's car is there as well so we've decided that the picture was taken on a weekend.



You can see the two cars nose to nose, in the garden you can clearly see our nice pool and the slide that the kids used to have.

I can tell almost exactly when the picture was taken - Towards the end of the summer last year our next-door neighbours put up a pool that you can just see at the bottom of the picture. It was only up for about a month because the weather turned rubbish.

So that's about a year old.

Find your house and post it here

I took a photo of our house whilst flying, think I've lost it though.

The image on Google is too pants for us, which is strange as it used to be fine.

Portsmouth images seem to have been updated recently
Will post pic when I get home. Can tell its a new picture as the paving slabs outside the front door are new clean ones and not cracked and the front wall is there which it wasn't before. The paving slabs have been done since we moved in so at most its 2 1/2 years old.

Mine's been visible for a few years now. Workplace visible (but old). My parents' old place turned up just as they moved out.

Caravan still in the drive means before May last year, second garage narrows it down to a 5 month period.
Thats my car outside on its own so it was probably a weekday.
