    Hi guys,

    Looking to pick up a large map of the world to hang up on the wall.

    Anyone know whereabouts in the city centre I could pick one up?

    Cheers.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Large is a rather ambiguous term isn't it :p

    Looking online, about 1360mm x 840mm would be the ballpark, but I'm not set on that. It's a present and want to get a decent look at it before deciding.

    That might even qualify as huge! Might be tricky finding a nice one easons might have a basic laminated roll up one.

    Easons would be my guess. In the school books part or possibly the children's section.

    Sure you see people bringing massive stuff back on the bus no idea how they do it some times!! I would imagine it wouldn't be too big in a tube might be a bit tricky framed though!!

    Comes in a long narrow box nearly two meters long. Very tricky and inconsiderate of other passengers. Not that anyone is actually going to do that.

    That does sound like fun to take on a bus!

    Typical Dub! Its so close you could walk it if you really had to. Is there no way, in your wildest imagination, you could organise someone to help you if you really hadn't the hour and a half to spare?
