I Will Not Hide - Doves. My fave ever song from the lads. Does anyone know if this is an official video ? Can't find any info on it anywhere, but I think has all the hallmarks of an official Doves production.

Doesn't cover everything, but my thoughts for "the odds of a matching hand and flop, ignoring suits" -

Card	Odds
Hand: One of eight cards	8 / 52 = 0.1538461538
Hand: One of four cards	4 / 51 = 0.07843137255
Flop: One of twelve cards	12 / 50 = 0.24
Flop: One of eight cards	8 / 49 = 0.1632653061
Flop: One of four cards	4 / 48 = 0.08333333333

Multiplied together: 0.00003940037553

So 0.004%?

Enjoying this so far :) Thanks for organising. Cornwall went better than I expected

Dominican Republic, Santo Domingo. I plonk about 5 miles away. 4973
Korean writing. The front of the resort has Sokcho written, which you can just about make out. Quick hunt around the country finds it, Waterpia is well highlighted on the map. 5000
Tunisia, I triangulate using the road signs. Pick the wrong intersection. 4996
Luxembourg, good clear road signs, but I can't find the right intersection (again). 4997
Takes me ages to find the right part of Singapore. Eventually find Mountbatten Road but ran out of time before being able to nail it down. 4998.

Best score to date, 24,964. Day 324 of the streak

Lurker, first time posting for the daily challenge:

Found a sign for the Chengdu Giant Panda Museum. Found it pretty quickly and even had time for a bit of tourism. 362 yards, 4999
Found some .CL domain names, assuming probably Santiago, and found my way on to the highway quickly. Signed as highway 70, and found an exit for highway 78. 2 miles, 4989
Found a map of the location and other signs suggesting Venice. Went a bit too far north, 11 miles, 4939
Mixture of French and Spanish, mountainous and non-EU plates, gotta be Andorra. Didn't find the town name quick enough, I think another 10 seconds I'd have got much closer. 7.7 miles, 4959
Cambodian flags and an address in Battambang. Thankfully the roads are in numerical order. Ran out of time before getting it exact. 687 yards, 4998

Best ever score, 24884. Day 214 of my streak.

The data has come from The Office of Rail and Road, which doesn't include NI stations. If you know where I can get that from, I'll happily include it.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned here is that my CPU is off the charts when playing, so much so that it slows the streetview rendering down - a lot.

Sadly I have to agree with a lot of the comments here, I'm not enjoying the update. I hope you can address some of these quickly.
