| I'd do it manually - make a line with the Measure Distance tool, then estimate the compass direction/bearing by eye. _________________ ' "Haven't got houses." Where do they live then?'

| About four miles into the North Sea. I’m not, I’m in Cellardyke, in an old cottage overlooking the Forth. I have a little patio with a low wall, beyond which is the water crashing onto rocks. It’s very relaxing. Although the ceilings are very low, which keeps disconcerting me. It’s a real bolthole. |

| I’ve grown to like the O2 Millennium Dome. I hated it for years. |

| I didn't really like the Millennium Dome until I flew back from New York over it in 2003 whilst about to land at Heathrow and it looked a bit iconic.
I don't seem to have seen it for ages in any media. Does it still exist? You only ever see inside of "the O2". |

| GM has me once again in the sea, about 1100m offshore from a little seaside place called Balintore, on the Moray Firth. _________________ ' "Haven't got houses." Where do they live then?'
