    I think you ought to check on the alignment of the image map you're
using.

    At first I thought I'd been missed, checked you list, and sure enough,
I'm on there.
    But where ? Let me tell you none of the spots on the UK are over
Cambridge (where I am).
    Then I noticed those two spots that seem to be floating in the sea.

    Could it be that you're image map is shifted a couple of degrees to the
east ? (or that the spots are shifted a couple of degrees west). That would
explain the spots off the west coasts of Wales & Ireland and correcting it
would put one of the spots roughly over Cambridge !
