Feckin' hell, we're on the Google!!

Just a quick post, because I thought this was really exciting. My homeland is now on Google Maps. Last week, one of my cousins called me up to tell me that the "Google Man" had been to town and was taking photos of everything from the road. And lo and behold, today when I Googled Achill, you can drag the little yellow man onto the street and view the whole place from a street view. You can see my friggin house! 

Google map search this: 53.93472,-9.911197
Yes, that's right: We don't have addresses. No house numbers. No street names. God help the poor sod who ends up taking over when the postman dies. I don't know how they do it, especially since there are multiple people with the same name all living in the same area. That means they all have the exact same address, because your address is just your name, the name of the village, the name of the town, and the name of the county. And yet everyone gets their mail. They only just got streetlights put in, as well. Good craic all 'round. Why Mum moved us to New Jersey, I shall never know. 


Off to work out now, and watch SVU on DVD. Cabot 4eva!!
