@Magog the Ogre: - Why does this say "the Shetlands" and "the Scillys" [sic]? The usual spelling is Scillies not Scillys - but in any case, and far more importantly, those plural forms are deprecated by all geographers and anyone living in those areas. "The Shetlands" are Shetland, and "The Scillies" are the Isles of Scilly. It would be better, and more correct, to say "From Shetland to Scilly". Ghmyrtle (talk) 09:05, 14 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Magog the Ogre: I came here to say exactly the same thing but Ghmyrtle had got here before me! If it can be changed please - the ad is eye-catching but much better if correct. thanks Geopersona (talk) 07:11, 17 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
