Now I know this is really random, but I did a google search for my old school tonight and this is what I got. Now are they footsteps or not ?

Yep; If that is the whole grounds, I guess the groundsman got bored one day and planted a slightly different breed of grass in the "footsteps" - good find |

The Royal Alexandra and Albert is a state-maintained boarding school in Reigate. So not that posh ass then.

Its called the royal something and something, it's a boarding school set into what appears to be acres of parkland and seems to have its own lake/river....not your average one size fails all comprehensive! I wasn't having a go, I wish i'd had the chance to go to a decent school! |

Thanks for that tack'ho, It actually has 3 lakes English Dave It is state maintaned but still costs a heck of a lot to go to. I was lucky my father was in the forces so they payed for me to go, and it was great I really enjoyed the school and my time there. |

Just out of interest I looked up the fees for my old school. £8200 per term! Luckily, due to a fleeting acquaintance with academic excellence (long since passed), I was there on a scholarship. Equally fortunately, I have settled in "Norn Iron" where the state education system is excellent. Oh and my daughter is only three so not an issue just yet. I wonder if the footprints are some sort of photographic error/anomaly. Each footprint seems to be exactly the same shape as the next, which would be hard enough to do with your basic "crop-circle" hoax. But these are not regular, easily copy-able shapes. And one of the footprints crosses a track or fence. I know that in aerial photography (the detailed stuff in Google Earth isn't from satelites) the plane flies "strips", taking repeated photos with a GPS tag that a computer then glues together and flattens out. It's possible that the footprints are a mark on the lens seen several times. Just an idea. |
