Post by: Lawnmower Man on April 05, 2006, 02:51:54 am
Hi,
I just came across this fairly cool site. http://www.frappr.com/clubarnage/ you can place a pin on the map near to where you live so. It might be interesting to see where in the world CAers are.
I have to say it's not the easiest site to navigate but still.

Luddite ::) Granted, it's a US site with a US zipcode background. Click "not a US address" and type in a more detailed location such as 'Crawley, England'. A pop up box should give you some options.
I'm afraid the picturesque village of Upper Zarse is not on the database though ;)
(btw, Nordic managed to find Crawley, England ;) )

Thanks Steve. I've tried all that and it didn't work so the map remains sh-it. I can't work out how Nordic did it.
In the meantime, I refuse to change my opinion and would like to smash this map's stupid grinning face in. I'm not in a very good mood today. >:(

Hi Robbo, hope you had a great holiday in Latvia, sounds fun!
The last American citizen I saw in Portsmaouth was in the Yellow River Cafe in Gunwharf Quay, he was a sailor off a US Navy ship. He ordered the soup, waved away the spoon and tried to eat it with chopsticks!! Me and Chris Z pissed ourselves. Talking of which, the Yanks probably hate Gatwick because Chris is so rude to them everyday. Actually he's rude to everyone. It's his job! Last week he saw me emerge from the train station and go to the loo for a pee. Being the "man on the mike", he announced that "the playing of ball games is not allowed in the airport". And I bet he'd have nothing to do with this ridiculous map either.

You can in fact move your little marker to the exact spot you live if you so wish.
If you go to 'my details' you can pinpoint your position, you need a steady hand, I moved to Redhill at one point!

I think it only allows you to have one pin. It kinda makes sense since you can only be in one time and space. (Unless of course you have an infinite Improbability Drive in which case you pass though every point in space and time each time you drive.)
