I asked readers last week why the Station at the pretty Cotswolds town Moreton-in-Marsh, appeared to have signs in both English and Chinese. Silly me, Mu (a Japanese cat loving neighbour from Bristol) put me in my place straight away – the signs are in Japanese.
Apparently, according to my step mother, there are a lot of Japanese students and tourists who visit Moreton. But in staring at the Asian letters I missed something, PC station manager Teresa Ceesay may be a whizz at the Japanese but seems a bit less on the ball when it comes to….English.
Among the signs at her station are ones for Stow-in-the-Wold. I think, Teresa will find that she means Stow-on-the-Wold. The Japanese version gets it right.
Unlike Teresa, I stand corrected.
