Turns out that as a card carrying member of the Illuminati, I get priority access to places in the UK with confusingly spelled place names, so - after answering the usual hodge-podge of Japan Fioundation questions - I will be taking the N1 JLPT at Leicester!

That made me think of the equally confusing Bicester, up the road from me, and I spotted that it's also not that far from you either. Hello, neighbour. ;)

Hi there !

We lived in Bicester years ago and my daughter lives there now (although in a house that didn't exist when we were there). Lots of confusing/difficult place name pronunciations in Oxon and the surrounding counties.
