    Cheers LA,
    I live on the north side of CHCH but it wasn't to hard, because the building is quite memorable (at least I think so) for a smallish town such as Rolle,

    New tag should be up by about 6.00 - 6.30pm and it shouldn't be to hard to get.

    aarrrgh... that's a good one.

    I'm sure I'd remember that if I'd already been there for any length of time, but should be pretty easy to google.

    Yeah, shouldn't be to hard.
    Both my other choices didn't pan out because of the bad weather and the time of day. Bloody dangerous pulling to the side of the road in rush hour where the only place off the road is swamp masquerading as a roadside verge. <----- not a clue.
    I wanted to get the pic before all the light left, so was looking for something and came across this.

    Right... this will be an issue of the people's court. I've just ridden 10km in the rain at night, found the tag, taken some photos of my bike there and come back.
    HOWEVER,
    being dark and wet I struggled to take a good photo from the correct position. So what I will do is put up several photos of my bike in front of the ship and you can judge whether it counts.

    It was Pirate Island golf btw. Didn't even have to google it, went there tons as a kid.

    Pirate Island golf, Roydvale Ave is where I beleived it to be.
    The place didn't exist when I was a kid and I'm not really in to mini golf so haven't stopped there myself but google results were conclusive enough for me to intend to go check it out.
    I reckon you've save me a trip.

    Can people please put a Street name in with their claim picture posts to make map update easier.
    On the tags I don't know I'd now have to waste time searching for them online to get an address to stick the marker.

    My bad, sorry. I think it was 193 or something but I'm too lazy to google it.

    If you guys are happy with that, next one will be up tomorrow morning with any luck.

    Even just quoting Roydvale Ave as the street would have narrowed the search for an actual address to position the map pin easier, but in this case as mentioned I already had the address for Pirate island.

    The Selwin Council building in Rolliston had me stuffed, after it was claimed by BabyBandit I searched for an address for that using several different querys and kept getting the run around in results but no address.
    It would be one of those times when someone else might search for it with slightly different wording and get a street address in the first result.
    I was only able to update the map when the original claim post was edited with an intersection as a reference.

    Way to go McWild. TA: Exact address is 196 Roydvale Ave
    First photo was close enough. I stood across the road on the edge of the footpath about halfway between the lamppost and the corner. The Tag is yours.
