+MisterBen Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 (edited) I've just noticed that Google Maps has street view photos in the UK now (in London at least). I couldn't resist checking my caches to see if anyone was snapped while looking for them, but alas there's no one there. Has anyone spotted anyone in the act? Edited March 19, 2009 by MisterBen Quote

Not spotted any cachers yet - but have poked about looking for Bristol Curios (and found a couple too) Quote
+Stuey Posted March 19, 2009 Posted March 19, 2009 That reminds me! We saw the Google car driving past the office window last summer. We all stood at the window frantically waving.. so you never know, when they release it for our area, we might be on it! Quote
+figures Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I should be on there when they expand Cambridge into Cherry Hinton. Was returning from taking a few friends to GCYF7H last summer when the car drove past us. Like Stuey, we waved! I also nearly got run over by the car a bit later, so there should be a good shot of me! Quote
+geoffenator Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Has anyone spotted anyone in the act? Not exactly in the act, but that's me in the silver Honda. Fame at last. Geoff Quote
+Teuchters Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Not caching but waiting to cross the road. Here's the Edinburgh cacher dunk090. http://tinyurl.com/ctosgp With acknowledgements to GeoX, the Scottish caching forum. Quote
+Lydford Locators Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Just parking up in Fairford, Gloucestershire today to do some caching when we got zapped by the GoogleMap vehicle - just have to wait now to see how we look. Quote

+Bear and Ragged Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Caught in the act... (NOT me!) The Beeb have a dozen photos here http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/in_pictures/7954641.stm Quote
+milvus-milvus Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 I was convinced that this was a geocacher: ... until I spotted the Ice Cream van just a few yards behind him! By the way, has anyone else noticed that the face blurrer seems to be racist? Quote
+Bambography Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 This is my favourite. I might be wrong, but I got the impression that this was a joke by Google themseleves! Quote
+Stuey Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 This is my favourite. At the risk of seeming stupid...... I don't get it. What am I missing? Quote

+minstrelcat Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 *ponders* I wonder if this is going to spoil any virtuals or multis that require the cacher to collect info from a sign? Lisa Quote
