Doncaster - Sheffield

On friday I witnessed a Spanish couple with four kids arrive at Sheffield airport in a bit of a flap. They were toting a pile of luggage as yo might imagine and were a bit tired/stressed. I commented to my pal stood nearby "bet they think they are at Doncaster". Guess what! I was right.

It's easy to see how the erro can be made and I wonder how many people have made this mistake. Why on earth do people insist on naming places inappropriately? Doncaster is Doncaster and not Sheffield. I wonder how many people have wandered off to Durham recently?
