The street view of my school doesn't show much - although it does have one of our students out the front.

It doesn't even show the main building (a photo of which I have attached).

The street view of my house is funny - all you can see are trees - can't see the house :)

They must be pretty old because I typed in the address of one of my dads properties which has been demolished and units being built on it.. and strangely the house is still there :P

The photos would've been around December-January in the SE area.

The shot outside of my new place contains my dad (lol) and certain bits of cargo in his van which were delivered around this time.
