Tonight on BBC London News the presenter announced an item on Staines - which she then said was in Surrey - Really? Last time I looked it was in Middlesex. Just last week Chris Hollins presenting a programme from the RFU stadium also announced it was in Surrey - are these people thick or what. I get exasperated with Tesco and now - ASDA, who keep insisting that their stores here are in Twickenham when they are quite obviously in Isleworth. I did complain in Tesco pointing out that their 'community champion' for Twickenham was in the wrong location and they were in fact in Isleworth but still they insist on calling it Twickenham. Frankly I don't expect too much from supermarkets - but the BBC? Standards certainly are slipping.
