It is nowadays quite easy to find out where
you are as regards to the
Southern Hemisphere due to GPS and google
earth etc. Guess where you
come out if you drill a hole from Aberdeen
through the centre of the
Earth? Remember we used to be told that
Australia was down under...

Please tell; I'm breathless...!

Well - you come out well south of the most Southern end of South
Island New Zealand - almost half way to the bloody
South Pole!!
Looking at it another way, if you dig up from Auckland New Zealand you
come out just North of Gibralter in Southern Spain.

Just shows how much the Gulf stream protects us from freezing over in
the UK.
