It not infrequently happens that something about the earth, about the sky,
about other elements of this world, about the motion and rotation or even
the magnitude and distances of the stars, about definite eclipses of the
sun and moon, about the passage of years and seasons, about the nature
of animals, of fruits, of stones, and of other such things, may be known
with the greatest certainty by reasoning or by experience. -- St Augustine

Oh, between Canning Town and Plaistow... so that's where they put that
poor old station... Always wondered where all closed railway stations
go... ;)

Makes you wonder if someone at Google just picked up the icon and dragged it
off the screen to his right doesn't it...

Google also thinks the W10 area is near Farringdon!

And then we have all the very strange misspellings of place names around
the world on GE. They make it look like they have been reading local
maps and somewhat careless typed the place names into their databases
manually (but I really think in that case that they have actually
OCR-scanned names off local maps and got recognition errors that way).
