Nick already dis'd China, as he should have. Japan is also a no.
I am east of the Prime Meridium Line The country of which I am in a corner of, apparently has the oldest railways in the world. .

Spain is still too far south,
But the longitude is about right!

England, Iam, and Northwood HQ is on the wrong side of the PML.
Head south west, gents. I am on the lawns, circular in shape, surrounded by water. I used a nice walkway to get here

Quote:
Northwood HQ is north west of London, according to wiki/google? **** edit.. should have said "west"... London central is West of the PML. Therefore, Kent is to the south east, which IS East of the PML. Further research suggests that some consider England to be entirely to the West, but, as I am using Google Earth, as I assume you are, my directions have been true. ok? .

Canterbury is a short drive due east of me, and has a historic place of similar age as to the place that I am. I plan to see both places, personally, within 5 years.

There is a painting in the main dining hall, of a Buffalo... (might be a yak...)
That pic just doesnt do that castle justice. Built around 1119, it is more than 700 years older than anything I have seen here in Oz You are tagged, Nick. Go hide, while I count to ten. .
