Still with an attitude of "dont' care cos it's not here" compared to the passion the campaign has generated in CP to protect and enhance our area I know where I'd rather live It's 4am and I've had a bit to drink, but my instinct still tells me 'having a go' at Sydenham, on a Sydenham Comm...

I'm confused. Was there a link to google maps in this thread that has been deleted, or am I just missing it?

Edit - I spotted the link Its the the word This in the post by Bensonby. I agree, a superb use for googlem maps.
