The Interactive Map seems to be working now I'm a Gold member. But for some reason, it thinks I'm in Slough Ln, Chippenham, and not the Slough in Berkshire. Does anyone know why this might be?

I think it is because it reads your IP address, which does not necessarily correlate with your geographical address.
Maybe someone who knows more about tech stuff can chime in.

Fortunately, I know quite a lot about tech stuff. I just think it's too much of a coincidence for it to just happen to think I'm somewhere that has a similar name to, but a different place to where I actually am.

I've just tried this, and it got my location spot on, so there must be something wrong with Google Maps.
Hi,
Why is the search for local chess clubs function so inaccurate? I tried searching for chess clubs withing 10 miles, and it came up with 2 results. The thing is, they're both in Bristol, which is more than 10 miles from where I am.
Also, why can't I see anyone (even myself) on the interactive map? These are in both Firefox and IE.
