JOE will hold our hands up and admit that we’ve sometimes made mistakes when it comes to speeling spelling some locations correctly.

Tight deadlines have to be met on any news desk so unfortunately small errors can occur.

JOE reader Keith Haugh pointed this graphic out to us and we’re certain that this type of thing wouldn’t haaaapen happen to us. *Cough, cough*
