I've been trying for last 20 minutes and cant get it working.

I have however found something bizzare since updating my google earth.

Certain areas where i live seem to have stepped back in time! I know that the images Nasa give Google are never gonna be upto date,but certain areas where im living have now gone back atleast 15 years! I just looked at the old quarry workings where i walk Vegas and it shows the land looking too recently dug-the quarry workings closed in 1992! Also,it shows Cambridge watersports building still by the lakeside and i know it was reduced to ash by vandals atleast 10 years ago.Infact,i sat on the charred sleeper which was its doorstep only this morning! My house too seems to have stepped back atleast 10 years.The picture of my house before wasnt excally recent,but it did show my neighbours Winebago Motorhome and now it shows their old Renault one they had previously!

Never had myself down as a time traveller-now wheres my DeLorean Marty...

Make sure the main window is active as by default i think the search box is, It took me a while, I tried both ctrl-alt-a and ctrl-a

I'm not playing anymore. I keep spinning round and round and can't get control again :smt043

I took off at Heathrow and crashed in the same field about 10 times. :smt043

I didn't feel safe in the mountains!
