bickster Posted September 28, 2023 Moderator Share Posted September 28, 2023 There’s another version of this map out there sonewhere where the lighthouses are all animated to represent their actual individual light signals. I’ve tried to locate it but alas cannot find it but I did find this Quote A zoomable lighthouse map of the world https://geodienst.github.io/lighthousemap/ Which attempts the same thing but isn’t the one I was thinking of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't feel so bad the next time I tell people in Wales that it's great to be back in England! A lot of Britain has a frankly scary blindspot towards Northern Ireland. One they themselves are largely not aware of. We see it over here, as and when it manifests. But they largely don't (which is why it's a blindspot I guess). My favourite Britain-related thing to do over here in Ireland before I'm visiting is to say "I'm going over to the mainland". That REALLY pisses the right kind of people off. Then you get the Brits who unironically still call it the mainland as well So no, it is definitely not just yanks who make GB/UK/England/Ireland related mistakes. And that's not even getting into the new 'is NI still in the EU/land borders' nightmare, which technically isn't even resolved yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted October 13, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted October 13, 2023 I’m struggling with how that Wrexham map came to be. There’s seemingly no rhyme nor reason as to which clubs they’ve included. At the very least they must know which are other Welsh clubs. Maybe they’re deliberately trying to wind Cardiff up by putting them in Taunton. If I was being ultra cynical I’d say that was a little bit of silly viral marketing they’ve made us a take part in. But I’m not sure the show needs that exposure and there must be better ways of doing so if they wanted to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
