we saw 3 google cars come into a quite cul de sack last July where we was working, the last one we was both followed the camera on top of the car as it was leaving looking like a couple of lemons but as it happens they have used different photos

good job I was breathing in as the car past

the possibilities are endless,rather than have to drive to out of the way jobs to look at bricks etc you can just tap in a postcode and look online
also you can give references to people to have a look at previous jobs
the thing is it must have taken them 3 years because my missus shop is on there and that only opened last september
