INVERGOWRIE — Fictional retiree Shona Reilly, 67, prints public maps and corrects them in red biro.
“AI moved Auchterarder,” she said. “I moved it back. Took twelve seconds. I also added a wee note saying ‘try harder’.”
Shona’s kitchen is now an unofficial cartography lab. Tea provided; arrogance not.
The real story: Fictional.

Can confirm Shona’s red pen is terrifying and correct.
