I want to stick a circle on a map of X distance as the radius... I know I could do it in a very very very old copy of autoroute but is there anything online that will do it with google maps etc?

I think on google maps it will only follow routes as in roads when you are planning so not strictly as the crow flys :unsure:

T'is a very handy tool. Use it quite a lot at the office to find what postcodes fall within a certain radius of either another postcode or point on the map. Even better now it'll output it as a KML file. thumbsup
