Macca's House Removed From Google Street View

2605_streetview.jpg Sir Paul McCartney has successfully managed to get the image of his London pad scrubbed from Google Street View. Security staff for the ex-Beatle, who resides in Norwegian St Johns Wood, complained after discovering detailed photographs of the long and winding road where he resides on the service. Fearful of somebody discovering the address and coming in through the bathroom window, the team asked that they be removed as a personal safety issue: a fair point, really, given the domestic attacks that former bandmates John Lennon and George Harrison suffered, and in any case Macca probably doesn't want to be doorstepped every time he's leaving home. After all, everybody's got something to hide, even Paul and his drumkits.
