What's more, at the other end the part of Cathcart Road that you're allowed to go on you're standing outside an Italian restaurant with a spooky ghost man walking towards you.

You can then go inside the Italian restaurant, but when you come out again and cross the road, looking back, it's an Indian restaurant! scared

So, all the bits of Cathcart street between the two stars are un-streetview-able and at the b*ttom end is the mystery restaurant that exists, I can only surmise, at the edge of a fold in the the time-space continuum.

Note the houses to the right of said restaurant.

They seem to be dematerialising.

I imagine that if you look around in that restaurant for a bit you'll find Sapphire & Steel sat in the back enjoying a plate of Chicken Tikka Bolognese. scared

It would appear to be located in someone's back garden? Sly

And in the middle of a road that runs right through people's houses and buildings! llama

I think it's been in an accident. sad yes

Or it's teleported in from Cathcart Street on a time-space continuum anolomy troubleshooting mission* and is only partially materialised. hmm

*driven by Sapphire & Steel. Excited

It's the Aurora borealis at that time of year at this time of day in this part of the country localised entirely within the beach.

I've spent an unpleasant half hour wandering round old closed-off roads that used to go from Hong Kong into China, and now end at sinister 'Closed Area' signs.

Google Maps seems to have gone back to a 2d map, with Greenland bigger than Africa blah blah

, didn't it used to be a 3d spherical one?

Not only that, but the other half of the semi detached has a wider garden and space for a garage. That would either get right on my nerves for the rest of my life if I'd been put there by the council, or make me get back in the car if I'd gone to see it with a view to buying.

A nursery school in the shed would be the least of my concerns.

Also I'd be afraid the people in the wider garden half would park a huge RV on their drive.
