Curious... like Tony I got a field-full of moderns using satellite view. Trying Parazine's suggestion, clicking onto one of the blue dots in the rally field I got a row of Triumph Stags!

Amazing! I was there and it proves it by showing my Spanish Coupe quite clearly!
Showed Mary as proof that I WAS there, just like I said!!!
Big Brother is never more than 3 yards away.......................!

hi mike, perhaps your desires are 1970s and very unreliable. it also forefils your desire to repair things.

I tried using the link I posted on a couple of computers and found you get straight to the A7 event without needing to select the correct "blue dots".

Your link works fine for me Steve. Here's another one: https://goo.gl/maps/JJ2naftMfCn56tp58

I'm guessing no one noticed a car or van with a big Google sign on the side and a large rotating lump on top driving slowly around the site.
Must have been too chilled

It's all done by silent solar drones these days - you wouldn't have noticed. (Ever seen one?)

Actually it was done by a chap with thinning hair and a hand held camera, if you go to any of the locations with lots of arrow and look directly down, you can see him!
I was there but couldn’t find myself, I was probably looking for fish and chips...

Hmm Colin, I have a feeling that a 'silent solar drone' zipping around at head height would cause a few problems and be a nice target for those a little bored. Ivor's reality of a balding chap brings the whole high tech thing down to earth a little.
