If, like me yesterday, you have a hour to spare near Kings Cross I can recommend the Secret Maps Exhibition at the British Library.

Was really interesting, although I got a bit lost trying to get out

If you like maps, especially bad ones, and need an idea for a Christmas present, may I suggest the Map Men's new book, This Way Up?

Thanks. I’ve been to the BL a couple of times, once to see the three Magna Carta’s and it’s a terrific facility.

I’d like to see the Maps exhibition. Interesting.

This is a great site with maps from different times and to different scales.

Had to look them up! Never heard the term before.

They’re people that believe the law doesn’t apply to them, aren’t they? While I believe I should be made Emperor, until that great day for Britain, I’ll obey the law.
