Regulars will know that we get a lot of maps in the wild which feature, wine, spirits or beer. I couldn’t resist this Wainwright beer glass (suitably filled) for the last of my birthday sequence. Nick Hill sent this pic. “Not sure if you’ve had this one before? I saw […]

A bonus pic from Ken for our birthday. Ken was in New York recently and he sent this map in the wild from a diner that he stopped at. To fit the map into the available space they rotated it to west up.
