right, a googley earthy quiz for the really sad - ID these indoor walls one time:
1) A wall, in a city (easy):
2) A wall, in a city (easyish):
3) A wall, in a city (medium):
4) A wall, in a city (hard):
N.B. I had more, but i fucked up google earth somehow. Will try again if y'all get these word.
Enjoy.

#2 is definitely the westway - can't fail to recognize the shepherd's bush roundabout...no idea about the others, though.

Tragically, I can identify #4 as the awesome kelsey kerridge (sp?) in Cambridge. Identifiable swimming pool swervy roof and adjacent mini skate park.
Now I'm remembering the lost hours spent sketching around on the worst (?) wall in the UK. Depressing.
btw: if you squint you can make out the lat/long in the corner of the GE image and put it into streetmap, but that would have been cheating...

blimey rc, that is quite a shout. I thought I was the only person carrying the emotional scars of KK being my local for a bit.
that's all four then...one courtesy of Mr Bad/Angry Fox himself:
am off to #3 tonight, will do a few more when I get home...

You did say this quiz was for the
really
sad.
I was a somewhat regular visitor to the KK 2000-2003 (the twilight years). It was expensive and shit - all I ever got was a rekindled tendon injury. Damn those flatlanders.

sadly, resolution was poor on the others I'd had ideas for, so i will bow out with one final effort:
a wall, in a city:
that is all.

Au naturel Monsieur - no amount of rotating / messing about was gonna disguise that was it?
