Seeing that FQL doesn't have cos/sin/tan functions this isn't possible without doing the calculations before for the bounding area.

Question
hope someone can help. Am pretty new to this...
I'm trying to use FQL to return a list of friends who are within a certain distance of a specific latitude and longitude. So far I've got:
SELECT uid, name, current_location FROM user WHERE uid in (SELECT uid2 FROM friend WHERE uid1 = me())
Which returns the lat and long of each friend. So far, so good. However I only want to return results within, say, 30km of latitude 52.2500, longitude -0.8833.
Can I even do this with FQL?
No correct solution
