Herefordshire and Worcestershire haven't existed as separate counties for most of my life.

Perhaps the OP might like to head over to this (sadly underused) thread, and have a fresh start:

This definately looks like the best (and easiest) idea

One of the motorcycle forums I use has a similar idea

http://www.mapservices.org/myguestmap/map/gasman

The only problem has been none members putting pins so now its restricted and only the admins can add new pins

I stand corrected - a very small fraction under half my life ... surprising how news passes one by when it doesn't impinge on one's life anymore.

Thanks exportman...that map page looks better (and it's free)...so...I've setup an fledgling map for 'mentors' only here

If a mentor wants to be shown on the map please send me your postcode private message and I'll add a pin. If you are happy for you direct email address to be shown on the pin then please supply that as well - otherwise all I will show is your forum username.

Only mentors listed here will be pinned.

If you want to be added to the mentor list please read and follow the instructions on that thread.

I have updated my profile, however this is the third time but when I check next time I visit this forum nothing has changed so maybe this time
