I'm looking for a map of Edinburgh to stick on my wall. I know that you get them through the taxi schools but is there anywhere you can buy them yourself?
Thanks

Have you tried google maps. You can zoom in to the scale that you want and print it off. When you have all the sections that you need just tape them together and hey presto. :D

Wrong again Skippy 41.

Regent Street is in Portobello, 4 miles away from the map.

There is no princess street in Edinburgh.

And jasbar has never pleaded for anything in his life. What you want you take. And, if the giver doesn't want to give, you batter them until they do.

No politician here. This is just thuggery. The winner is the last man standing.

:lol:

Me thinks you should look at your spelling - Princes St
