Did I miss the picture of you on the zero line? I have a picture of me on it somewhere laying around, it's a must when you visit Greenwich! | Mariajoy Thu May 25, 2006 06:55 UTC

Interesting to se that you can get Indonesia into a page on Greenwich (China too for that matter!) | grandmaR Tue Jan 6, 2004 14:53 UTC
Great page on Greenwich. I didn't know I could get a certificate!! I don't think the equator crossing 'counts' unless you've done it on a ship. Bob has done that - I've only done it by plane. |
