 * Hiya
 * I am having problems with the googlemaps api. The map is showing correctly, however,
   the theme is showing a random location in the US rather than the correct UK postcode.
 * Do you know why this might be happening?
 * Thanks for the theme – bought this for the club and it usually works very very
   well.

 * It’s okay – solved the problem. I think that Googlemaps only recognised a slightly
   different postcode to the club.
 * I have managed to update this and get the map to display correctly.
