This Map allows you to add yourself with a picture and a short profile. Then you will be located with a pin in your area on the map. Have a look and try it!
Sorry about this. It does take a bit to load up but not long and then you should be able to click JOIN and get on. But I think you did say you are on a slow connection once so maybe that is the reason? I really thought it would be good to have you as a member all the way in Australia on the map as well!
Do you want me to ask the help centre if there is a way to get you on?
Finally got on the map. I had to put London as my location, which is only 30 miles out. Prior to this, the map placed me in Bedfordshire, USA. So progress me thinks.
