    Do people realise that these images were taken in 2009 at latest and possibly as early as 2006.

    This thread did make me laugh! The OP almost as much as the replies!

    I've never been that bothered about Street View, I mean who really cares about a random house and a random street? And motorbikes aren't such a rarity nowadays that people would race to nick them if they saw one...

    A friend discovered through street view that someone had used their drive during the day to park a commercial van. It was slightly amusing.

    The Navigation software on Android phones does this.

    Also, top tip: The houses that have been removed clearly have something worth stealing. Or they wouldn't have gone to the bother of requesting removal.

    To the OP. I would take it a useful reminder that maybe you need to increase security. If google can see it from a public place, so can opportunist thieves and lowlifes.

    You could maybe cover the house with a large opaque tarpaulin? After all, who needs daylight - or fresh air? And think of the savings you'll make by not having to fix that leaky roof! :money:

    Also, to make prefectly sure nobody is aware there is a house here, you must never be seen entering the property. You could sneak in in the dead of night, wearing a cat suit and ski mask. Not *always* practical, but security is paramount! :cool2:
