Welcome!
The Cartographers’ Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateurs—all are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.
Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.

Happy Birthday!
LOL! I have the same problem. Maybe we should do like the Queen does - have an ordinary birthday, and an official birthday - in September
problem is my bday is in peak season (as im sure you know!) so prices are pretty high at that time so i usually end up going abroad off-peak as i'm a bit of a cheapo :p
Maybe save up and spend your next birthday up there
i went to Norwich and Edinburgh to visit family in April and it was lovely and cool. I went ona highland tour and was in my T-shirt. In April. in Scotland. was strange
LOL! I live on the south coast, and much prefer Scotland for temperature!
ouch. I really hate the summers here (Malta) and our spring/autumn are barely noticeable as it just seems to switch instantly from summer to winter, which, cuz of the humidity, feels a lot colder than it actually is. I much prefer the UK for instance
WOW! I think the only time I've had to deal with temperatures like that was the day (32 years ago) when I did a chain survey of a local beach as part of my Biology A Level. The surface of the sand was 44 degrees behind the shelter of the dunes, and I burned my feet by making the mistake of taking my walking boots off to get a bit of fresh air to them! The little beetles I was counting in my grid square didn't warn me about that! LOL!
it went up to 40 last weekend here. that's about 20 more than what I like
LOL! Its hot enough up here in the UK right now, so I know what you mean!
