    Anyone live in Phayao?

    I need some help locating a house from space. I have an address but can't quite seem to locate it.

    A house from space? When you do locate it, we need photos.
    How exciting, an alien house.

    Seriously though, have you typed the address into google maps? (Sorry if that's too obvious)

    It is too obvious:-) Thai addresses are somewhat less than exact! Found the street. Divided road. I have picture of the front gate but. the street view car didn't go there!

    I'm on the case and do this a lot but still...

    Try using HERE maps. You may get a result?

    Believe it or not, HERE can be better than Google (but no streetview).

    I've heard there is a nice restaurant on Mars. The food is good, but there is no atmosphere.

    Cheers had a look but the views are older than Google Maps and I also discovered that Google Earth has more recent images than Google maps. I falsely thought they would be the same.

    Cheers everyone I did find it. My OP was a moment of TV type thinking. Once I had been told the perimeter length and knew what size plot I was looking for and got a photo of the house so I knew the roof colour etc. Street view car did not go down that street!

    Better to think inside the pub, than outside the box?

    I'd assumed the same!
    Interesting.

    BTW...the streetview car came down my dead end soi a month or so ago and I photo-bombed it. Hope it comes out. I wonder how long it takes to upload?

    Did you pull down your pants and pretend to have a crap in front of the gate?

    lol, no. My soi is dead end, and I was at the end (which is a carpark) with my back to the soi staring at the view having a ciggie when I heard a car come down the soi. I didn't turn around at first, but it started a 3 point turn (actually 9 point, Thai style) right behind me. I turned and saw what it was. I put my arms out in a greeting and had a big smile. The driver driver laughed and drove back up the soi. Wifey will be in it as she was sitting at her desk in the front room (townhouse with entire front opened).
