Running out of content

I've been tagging things and watching my plans, but I think I'm running out of things to do.
I could start to grind for vanity items, the zubmarine or the luxury ship.
I've started to grind for my goat, but that takes time, so I'm not even going to think of it as something I'm doing.
I could change jobs, that's harder now because you only get ONE TRY each time the letter comes, but I want to wait for the next job tier...
So, it feels like I'm down to only the grind... though I know this to not be true.
I've not yet put to zea, so there's the content there, iron republic, polythame, port carnarilian and a dozen little plots on each island of the arcapeligo... though I hesitate because I just know if I put out to zea I'll fail my notability and it was painful to get to 10 (so much that my fall to 9 is not likely to recover to 10 any time soon).
It feels like I'm trying to do the last few ergs of content on the mainland.
There's something with the maps?
There's cat and mouse?
Small investigations like this stolen glim case?
How much is left?

Do not fear the zee. The captain who outraces mountains and faces the Drowny song always returns more notable than before. (This is a lie.)
Your vacation in screaming Polythreme or impossible Iron Republic will be a relaxing sauna for the mens and corpus. (This is a lie.)

Suggestion: make sure you have enough MW to survive Time the Healer before you put to zee, and come back while there's still time to get MW back up to 10 before TtH comes again. While it's more action efficient, there's no actual need to put to zee for weeks on end; you can get wherever you're going in the Southern Archipelago in 20 actions, often fewer depending how you play your cards, and coming back to London costs you one extra such trip.
Or build up MW to 20 first for an extra week at zee; you can probably do that in half a week, spend two weeks and a couple days at zee, and have plenty of time to get back from 5 to 10.

As long as your MW is higher than your Notability you won't lose it. As you are likely to want to collect your profession payment weekly you probably won't spend more than a week at Zea and you can spend time in London until your Notability is protected again.
As for other content in London itself I would say just poke about and see if you can find something you haven't done.
Not entirely sure what you mean about the maps but you will need to track down two halves of the screaming map if you want to go to the Sea of Voices.
The stolen glim case will eventually lead you to a new fate-locked area.

Sorry RL means I am not a very active player at the moment. No social actions unless you are prepared to wait and definitely no sparring or other mult-action things.
No Calling Cards or boxed cats please. Will take dupes on the affluent photographers. Other social invitations welcome. Parabolan Kittens usually available, send me an in-game social action saying you want one and I will get one to you as soon as possible.
