I meant the road layout I should have made myself clearer although the tree at Greendyke St at the Saltmarket dosen't have as much bush these days. There was definitely more twigs in the thatch going on in the 1970's... I blame Yoko Ono btw

I'd guess that if you went early in the morning or on a Sunday, the traffic would be a tad lighter. I chose 5pm

Cheers, Chief, but no matter how hard you try, digital just can't compare to original film. It just does not seem as natural somehow.
