# I'm not sure what you did. . .
But the fact that I can't find it so far tells me that you at least did a damn good job of it. Of course, it probably doesn't help that I'm from the states. ;)

EDIT: Oh, wait. . . ah ha ha ha ha ha!

EDIT EDIT: Egads, how long did that take you?

# Yeah, I got it after a moment.
Specificly, when I thought to myself, "Geez, everything in London is so absurdly close together! It must make touring the city incredibly. . . convenient. . . Ahhhhh!"

I live right outside of NYC, and they do the same thing when they set a movie in NYC.

# Tell me about it.
The hours a-cuttin' and a-pastin' are in addition to spending all day trying and failing to get the London AZ CD working on WinXP. DAMN YOU SWEDEN..!

Why use the CD? streetmap.co.uk uses the A to Zed maps

# This was from Streetmap
...they don't!

AZ has reassuring yellow roads and a general comfy orangeness that was worth looking for. Streetmap maps are copyright Collins Bartholomew (by the way... thanks chaps!) Thanks for the thought though. Appreciated.
