Not sure if joking ;)

Real answer is that it’s his MOD civilian grade, B2 being approximately equal to Colonel in responsibility. But with less chance of getting shot.

One of the comments there said how having an apostrophe in your name is a PITA that must be so true. I've had documents rejected because my street has an apostrophe in it, which is a relatively minor inconvenience and one I can remove without being noticed. That's nothing compared to actual ID documents with your name, where an inconsistency could cause massive issues.

Cannot accept name due to apostrophe

Remove apostrophe, accepts name- send proof

Cannot accept proof doesn’t match entered name

Got to wonder - are the 2 stars part of the names or are they the favourites?

i don’t think Lily’Mae will be too worried about official documents in her future, she’d be lucky if she ever rode a plane, rode a plane…

Ah, that makes some sense of places renamed -', but it still doesn't make sense that systems can't cope with such things.

Here's one I think I posted on Facebook when I spotted it. Not rude, just seems unappetising: https://maps.app.goo.gl/9VfZFXyWTZQpVXkZ7

I've definitely posted this one before but the name was changed nearly 10 years ago so it may have been forgotten: https://maps.app.goo.gl/4oAM3L5X3ZJ3Nfax5

I remember you posting that second one before. I wonder if it was removed, or relocated.
