3.What do I love about being a Local Guide: Having recently retired and been given a tablet computer by our daughter I started to investigate what I could do to feel useful to others and develop my tablet Android skills. I came across the Google Maps Local Guide scheme when I decided to try and add in the many changes in our growing town. I am still struggling with using Android Map Maker to add in new roads although I hope some of my edits to changes to local schools might be taken up! My camera on the tablet has stopped working so for the time being I am review local place facts hoping to get the facts sorted out but realising I need to my camera working again!
4. I love share: Photo and my comments on places I have visited.
5. How did you find out about Local Guides: See point 3 above!
6. Fun Fact About Me: I am 6 feet 4 inches ( 1.98 m) tall who likes beer and is an aviation fanatic !

What do I love about being a Local Guide: Just started, other than answering some questions and a few reviews, not much. But looking forward to updating and correcting some outdated entries in the local area, and adding new ones.

How did I hear about Local Guides: One day my phone asked me if I wanted to answer questions about the place I was at. I was bored so said sure. Since then I've done a few more. Then my phone asked me to do more, I said sure...then it told me I'd signed up to be a Local Guide. After figuring out what it was talking about...I think this is awesome.

Fun Fact About Me: One of my many nicknames is "The Grouch".
