StokIE - Stokies In Exile ::: The Google Pushpin MapUpdated:- to here. Please note: You must download a new file ... It's named the same, so if you replace the file on your computer - same folder - it will automatically add the new ones when you open Google-Earth ... I hope!Temporarily abroad and need a cheese-filled, oat-based snack? Maybe a StokIE can help ... (please phone first! ) Click this ...- Viewing the Map requires you have Google Earth installed
- The "pins" are coloured RED (I don't just throw this stuff together!)
- If you "untick" all other Places in the left menu of Google Earth - Just leaving this set ticked - And then zoom out to about 10,000-kilometers! - You can spin around the global and spot us all quiet easily (or just click on a name in the list)
- I added an extremely (un)sexy badge to the places file ... You may or may not be able to work out how to see it ... If not, don't worry about it, it's not THAT sexeh (don't bug me about Trademark/Copyright, either!!!)
There's still lots more of us away-from-home than this ... So hopefully more of us check in over the next few weeks (before I get bored and forget about it all ) I want on this Map!!1. To save me a ton of work ... You must live outside the land-boundaries of England, Scotland and Wales (off the island!) 2. You must specify a TOWN and that town must be recognised by Google (so give me the country too) 3. You must post in THIS thread 4. I'll update the list as-and-when (monthly at worst) 5. Hobos will be banned from listing (if I get fed up of updating you!) So, I (still) need a TOWN from the following people already in the thread: - Eddy - New Zealand
- joseSR - Norway
- Claus_SCFC - Denmark
- nzstokie - New Zealand
Notes:Jomtien/Chonburi/Pattaya ... Now you see, according to Google, that's actually "Chon Buri" and there is indeed a few BUSINESSES called Jomtien fairly close by ... but no such place ... It's not my fault!!! So, I've assumed you live in the Jomtien Youth Hostel! (you're not related to Jimmy Saville, are you!!? ) Los Alfareros: Guime ... Google says: Nope! I've stuck your pin in the middle of Lanzarote (it won't be too far away, will it?!) Thanks for the new ones and for the updates

Looking at google reminds me of the old British Empire saying. The sun never sets on Stokes fans.

Weihai, China. Pretty far innit!
Love wearing my Stoke shirt here and some recognize us! You'd be surprised at how famous we are these days!
Played football with Chinese friends the day after the Crouchy wonder goal last year. They were all talking about it and trying to re-create it! From lowly beginnings...

Transplanted Cheesehead (Wisconsin) to St Augustine, FLA. Got Stoke fever in '08 and have been hooked since. Made the pilgrimage to the Brit this past April and can't wait to go back. Watch every game on internet or FSC.
