Just spotted myself on Streetview

NC, obviously.

Was looking on Streetview to see how a street in my city has changed over the years and they've updated it with new images, and there I am. You can follow me pootling out of Tesco then quizzically looking at the Google man. I remember the day distinctly, it was around Easter and the Google man with that camera helmet thingy walked past me - I thought 'I'd better not end up on streetview'. Then forgot all about it until this morning.

Anyone else been 'got'? Don't know why but me and DD are pissing ourselves easily pleased 😂

I'm standing at my garden gate chatting to the local farmer. I'm wearing a uniform top of a job I left 10 years ago.
It's quiet round our parts Wink

I’m going into the side gate of a house we haven’t lived in for ages. A 2 year old Dd is stood next to me in a tinkerbell costume for some reason.

They may have done new images since then, it’s a while since I looked

ChelseaCat · 03/01/2020 10:26

I’m still on there! Going into my old flat! I was also super excited when I spotted it 😂

I was at the window of my office with another colleague I look like the Michelin Man, I since lost five and a half stone on the cancer diet extreme but I look so much better.

GrandmaSharksDentures · 03/01/2020 10:28

I was on there a few years ago with (tiny) DS pottering behind on his scooter. It was a lovely "snapshot" of our normal life at that time. I wish now I'd taken a screen shot

FuckinellItsMe · 03/01/2020 10:30

My ex neighbour is walking down our street, but my street hasn't been updated since 2012 and she moved away years ago. The back of my house still has DD's school uniform visible through her window, hanging on her wardrobe door - she's 22 now!

I love Streetview, I spend ages on it.

My MIL is in outside her house putting the bins out. Very glam Grin

@NaomifromMilshake hope you're fully recovered now Flowers I was thinking I either need to lose weight, get a better bra, or stop wearing belted coats (or possibly all three!)

My sister is on it 3 times. 2 are from the same day and she was walking in the direction of the google car. Another I think is in a nearby city.

PantsCrisis · 03/01/2020 10:36

@GrandmaSharksDentures if you look at Google maps on a desktop/laptop you can see past street view scenes. It's on the top left of the screen, you can scroll through them all Wink

Itwasntme101 · 03/01/2020 10:36

@GrandmaSharksDentures if you go into street view on a pc you can change to older images in the box on the top right

Itwasntme101 · 03/01/2020 10:38

Cross post and it is top left, obviously haven't had enough coffee today

PantsCrisis · 03/01/2020 10:38

I was in Brighton the summer before last and very excited to see the Google car go by. It took ages to upload but when it did I was obliterated by a bus! Angry

ShirleyPhallus · 03/01/2020 10:38

I’m so jealous that you’re all on there! I wish I was!

WillYouDoTheFandango · 03/01/2020 10:39

Not street view but I was on an aerial photo purchased by my next door neighbour as a 19 year old lying in my back garden in a bikini. Thank fuck it was then and not now!

FuckinellItsMe · 03/01/2020 10:40

I've seen the car loads of times out and about, including when I was on a trip to Edinburgh. But I've never been uploaded before! I feel famous Grin

Not streetview but google satellite and you can just make us out lying on our sun loungers in the garden! We are just skin coloured blobs but it’s quite amusing!!

That is so funny

MollyButton · 03/01/2020 10:56

Oh a colleague at work showed us the road he used to live in - and you could clearly see a drug deal taking place.

DaveMinion · 03/01/2020 10:57

My dh used to be on there putting the bin out but it’s been updated now

Oldraver · 03/01/2020 10:59

Yes I was in my car at Crossroads waiting to turn right when I saw the Google car, I may of took my time

Feminazgul · 03/01/2020 11:01

I was on it but its since been updated 🤔

AutumnRose1 · 03/01/2020 11:01

I would hate that, I do a sharp turn when I see them.
