Budgie - I know of several that have North America pretty well covered but not sure if there are any UK ones that don't want money up front.

it really pees me off that you have to pay to see the ww2 ariel photo's ,taken using tax payers money in tax payer provided camera's strapped to tax payers planes ,stored for 60 years at tax payers expense then "given" away to some third party to make money on :mad:
even worse is the cencus records ,collected using tax payers money ,collated by tax payers money ,the cd collated using prisoners (i bet theres plenty of mistakes) housed and fed at tax payers expence ,put online at tax payers money on a tax payer provided server and then have the cheek to charge :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Try: http://www.multimap.com
You will need to need to know a postal ardress or the name of a road near the lake you wish to view.

None available on the internet now, only one used to be Multimap where you could zoom in but they soon stopped that and one now has to pay silly amounts for a aerial photo!!

Multimap still works fine for me. No need to pay.

Doesn't look very red from up here...

Can't see any sign of 'Harry'...

The quality is not great but it's ok. I feel like a secret agent!
The fishing was good; it was the catching that was bad.
