For those who may be interested, or have not picked up on it yet, google earth' mapping has been updated for West-Wales and now has greater coverage and detail. You can now 'fly' the Teifi and Towy valleys.
TT.

Hello Croski. When you say the,< few of us> in England it does seem that their is only a few who are trying to be heard by the authorities in England .Or is it that only a <few> have access to the internet.I have already said i could not switch a computor on last year but since being given this computer i am amazed at what is available.I first found Cow-Green on google earth map and was amazed that i could more or less follow my footsteps around the reservoir banks a place i have fished since the late 70s.From <lochbois>

When you're moving around on Google Earth, is your computer mouse actually controlling the satellite ...... ??

You might want to use the following site www.flashearth.com/it allows you to see both Google and Microsoft images quickly of the same place - high/low tide, high/low water sometimes as they are not the same images (plus no big download or anything) cheers Nf

I found a great site a few weeks ago, just google footpaths lancashire, it gives aerial views of the whole of Lancashire, but from the 1960s, great for finding the course of your river 40 years ago, I would imagine the same thing is available for most counties as its a government site, p.s. I know they didn't have satellites- must have been done by plane- but its a fascinating site
