Almost as bad as my wife being asked by an American couple, as she stood on Magdalen Bridge, where was Magdaleen Bridge?

You're standing on it, was all she could reply!

Did they ask where Wer-ces-ter College was as well How to mangle a dignified ancient language!!!

I've been to Tewkesbury often! - Or as a tourist from the US once asked; "How do I get to 'Tweeksburry'?

I’ve been stopped a few times in Leicester by confused people looking for ‘Beaver Street’ (written Belvoir St).

We had a friend who was Rector of a parish near Marazion and he was also an expert in the Cornish language. Mispronunciation of Cornish names, especially saints names, would get him fuming with mock anger!! He was a lovely man - died quite a while ago now.
