Too bad it's a total FAKE!!!! :evil:
I sought Dudley of course, and found it - even the cars in the street are the same, but they altered the buildings and turned the picture a bit to the SE.... link to Google maps

That's what makes it even more fun! the fact that someone has actually taken the time and effort to do this!
Newsbiscuit is a very funny site!

I hadn't even read the other articles. I'm a natural spoil-sport! :wink:
Wasn't something like this written in Douglas Adams' hitch-hikers guide to the galaxy'? Something about a mountain range supposedly being the initials of the guy that created that world? Update: found it! 'Strata' by Terry Pratchett: The Company builds planets. Kin Arad is a high-ranking official of the Company. After twenty-one decades of living, and with the help of memory surgery, she is at the top of her profession. Discovering two of her employees have placed a fossilized plesiosaur in the wrong stratum, not to mention the fact it is holding a placard which reads, 'End Nuclear Testing Now', doesn't dismay the woman who built a mountain range in the shape of her initials during her own high-spirited youth.

Love that site, so funny
The athiest school play - "‘Lo, there is a great star in the sky, which is easily explained by rational and scientific means and certainly does not prove the existence of some sort of supernatural diety…’ " :lol: And the mugging of the pensioner that police admitted was "worth it"

That's pretty clever and funny.
Newsbuscuit makes me think of The Onion here in the States.

lol, shame its a fake and people don't have the sense of humour to actually do it lol... off course, demolishing hospitals and old peoples homes to do it aint right either ...

Less funny: this is the link to a building here in Amsterdam, which was built in the 1970's, when nobody knew about satellite photos. Now it looks like a big swastika.

Nice one Jona... but they knew lots about air photography (which is what Google uses too), I guess they must've known from the very beginning. :wink:
