In my dotage, I thought that a Google Earth look at my last UK abode 
would be interesting.


I found "our" cottage in Henley-on Thames and Lo! and Behold! the 
current owner is a Mercedes driver!


I left 50 years ago and at that time the "Fair MIle" was mostly 
tree-less, not so anymore.


Lots more houses too.

On reflection, the naming of "cottages" was probably a rural thing, as houses 
in the country were not numbered on a street.

Everyone knew who lived where, so naming the house, cottage, manse etc. was a

So Fred, maybe you can explain why it’s common for homes to be “named” in the 
UK? Was that a means of identifying the location prior to things like mail 
codes?

[MBZ] Nostalgia

2017-12-03 Thread Fred Moir via Mercedes 
In my dotage, I thought that a Google Earth look at my last UK abode would be 
interesting.

I found "our" cottage in Henley-on Thames and Lo! and Behold! the current owner 
is a Mercedes driver!

I left 50 years ago and at that time the "Fair MIle" was mostly tree-less, not 
so anymore.

Lots more houses too.
