Fred, you have far too much time on your hands.

See you Saturday.

Birdy .. know what you meant by km now - when you look at your own flag it wont give you km's after it because on the other members flags that is the distance they are from your flag.


Fred ... as you can see from my reply to birdy - IO had misinterpreted what Birdy meant when he asked what km meant - didn't realise he was talking about the km on the info when you highlighted a flag.

That is the distance from where that other members flag is to where your flag is located .... that means that SamL at Strathmore is 291 km from you at Bairnsdale etc etc. SamL is listed as 1655 km from me at Gladstone. All the member distances from you will be on their flag info.

And I'll get in before some one asks ... the location of the flags on the map aren't as good as what they could be - they're a little out of wack. I'll see if there's anything that can be done to correct it

Thanks Rotor,
I worked it out once Birdy said his was the only flag that didn't have a distance. I was about to tell him that mine didn't have one either. Then the penny dropped, brick by brick (or was that the shithouse?) fair on me head. I originally tried it like you said, but I picked a couple of bad examples. Brian is only showing as about 600 km from here, and I know he is at least a half million clicks away. But I forgot about the straight line bizzo. And Mitch is only just across the pond (reckon I could see his joint if I stood on the roof) and he is shown as 381 k.

Paul,
The only reason I've got time on my hands is 'cause I'm not allowed in the airport .

G'day Rotor,
You must have lucked in at exactly the right (or maybe wrong) time. I've been on that group (and its predecessors) for about 10 years, and only made about a dozen posts. Every few years a shit fight starts and it self destructs, and some of them nick off and start a new list. Used to be some really smart critters on the list but down to only a few these days. Some really good info available if you know who to watch (sound familiar?).
Cheers

Just for you Sonny

Dave (birdy)

I've added Indiana Station to the map info - go back in and put 0870 in for the postcode and you'll now get Indiana Station in the drop down which should put your flag around the right spot ....
