I love the magnificent precision (if possibly dubious accuracy) of
Banff 19 miles 7 furlongs and 88 yards
Boharm Bridge 7 miles, 7 furlongs, 45 yards
and
Elgin 18 miles 2 furlongs and 56 yards
... while the little man with the yardstick obviously hadn't measured the distance to Fochabers or Aberdeen
