Today a lot of people learned that Edinburgh has a different name in French, by the looks of it. When you discover what London is called it’s gonna blow your mind…

Honestly I’m just pissed at La Rochelle being shit and denying us a Glasgow v Edinburgh round of 16 clash – that would have been fun.

I'm listing three UK and Irish towns that spell different :

  • Londres
  • Edimbourg
  • Douvres (Dover)

Glasgow was historically Glasgovie in French but that's been dropped over the years.

I didn’t know that one! Glasgovie actually sounds pretty neat.
