    Nope, incomplete. Here’s one at the tip of that peninsula-looking island that’s left bare (Skye).

    I’m curious now it there actually is a spot in the Hebrides or Highlands where you can be more than a day’s walk from a pub.

      The Shetlands and Orkneys are also missing entirely. So there’s a few more for sure.

        Shetland and Orkney. Nobody who lives there says Shetlands or Orkneys. But yes there are a few for sure but not all of the islands have one.

        They’ve chopped off most of Caithness too. Thurso has pubs AND a distillery. John o’ Groats has a distillery too, AND a brewery.

        Mildly appropriate username. Clearly, they cropped it out because you’ve taken it for the king of Norway.

      Skye is actually close enough that you can drive over there by bridge

      Looks more like a bar. Never says pub that I saw.

      Skye is beautiful though. Worth the ferry if you’re in the area.

        Could you explain to my Canadian ass what the difference is? Haha. The only thing it seems to mean here is that they try to be classier and serve full entrees.

          An inn is basically a pub with rooms you can stay in. Not quite sure what makes a place a bar rather than a pub in the UK, but generally a pub was built as one and a bar is in a generic retail/restaurant space.

Don’t be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.

We are agents of chaos I’ve created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named “mapporncirclejerk”

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don’t message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.

Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.

No impersonating mods I can’t believe I had to make this rule.

No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say “take time to grow and come back when you are ready”.
