Yeah that's just what google maps put as the address when I copy-pasted the URL.

I've already submitted it to the local council through the snap-share app who responded immediately.

Did you check the bus shelter too? That will be the next to go...

Get up again, straighten your cap, keep going! :-)

Love this app that comes with my new car but can't understand why it won't let me check my tyre pressures in PSI without changing my distance UoM to Miles. I get metric vs imperial but it allows me to set temperature to Farenheight or weight to Pounds while still keeping distance in kilometres but as soon as I try to change tyre pressure to PSI it sets distance to miles. 

Who measures tyre pressure to kilopascals?

I think most places that use metric measurements. I think NZ and Oz might be outliers.

My big beef is having to choose UK English in some applications in order to get the correct date format but then you're saddled with miles instead of km. Outside of North America who uses their silly date format? Yet it is assumed that the whole English speaking world except UK uses it.

That reminds me. I used to live in Ireland (the republic) and every time I travelled north through Newry to Northern Ireland my car's digital speedo would automatically change from kilometres to miles and back again when I returned home to Dublin. I used to think that was pretty cool, especially for a 2007 Mini that still had wind up windows and no air conditioning.

The Americans almost use the European date format, year, month, day but usually forget the year and then remember to mention it last. At least the British system is logical, small, bigger, biggest.

The European system is the most logical, biggest (year), big (month), small (day), smaller (hours), smaller still (minutes), smallest (seconds).

Is that a Liquidambar? 

If so, I can understand a local wanting to do it harm. 

We had a very large specimen in our front garden and it was a nightmare, when it dropped wither the seedpods, or the leaves. 

BUT - if it's not yours, don't damage it. Ask for something to be done about it and if nothing is done about it, continue to complain, or learn to live with it. If it's not posing a hazard or endangering your property, it's not yours to do anything about. 

Don't get me started on the European use of a comma to denote a decimal place in a number and a decimal place to denote thousands (12.456,78 denotes 12 thousand, 4 hundred and fifty six point seven eight). At least today's version of Microsoft Excel can deal with it, back in 2011 when I received files from the continent my version of excel would convert decimal numbers to text because of the comma.

That drives me nuts, especially when they're writing in English but plonk one of those 'comma numbers' in the middle of the text. As no English-speaking country uses that format (AFAIK), why not use the English-standard format* when you're writing in English?

*I'm aware that some countries use "12,345.67" and others "12 345.67" which makes this a little more complex, but they could at least pick one.
