One friend of mine just asked on facebook where exactly Staines-Upon-Thames was...she has known it was Staines her whole life and was asked to go to SUT for something but wasn't sure if it was the same place.
Works both ways - I have always lived in or in villages around ROYAL Leamington Spa - Harbury, Flecknoe and then Coventry

That is still the official name of the town, but the railway station, part of Gawd's original Wonderful Railway has always (to my knowledge) just been Leamington Spa, and ROYAL Mail also don't use one's royal prefix.

I just worry that instead of having to double check something on Google maps, this terminal confusion is going to lead to a whole load of missed flights. What about the tube maps? Will they just say "Heathrow Central" or Heathrow Queen's Central"?

I just hope we don't have to resort to royal terminology, because T2 might then just become "One's Two".
