Caroline Robinson shared this pic from her local pub in Falmouth. Someone has covered the mirrors outside of the toilets with maps, and “why not?” I say!
Alice Gadney sent me this pic of her stunning map skirt (I hope she didn’t wear it while rowing!). She has promised to show up at a future GeoMob event wearing it.
Jon Morris shared this pic of what must be one of the most pointless maps that I have seen in a long time. “Tebay services letting us know where they are. “ I am sure that several of our readers could help Tebay Services to improve on this map.
Jorge Sanz shared this stylish gin bottle. He thinks it outguns the Spanish wine bottle that Michael Gould shared recently. I think he is right.
Harry Wood shared this pic of his son’s early cartographic efforts. “Just now he declared he was going to draw a map! It’s challenging my preconceived ideas about the importance of geographic accuracy.” It’s a wild map even if it isn’t a map in the wild.
