So much going on in the world and yet so many rubbish news sources find non-news stories like this.

Just for the record, I pronounce it 'Spanish Risotto' and if I want to sound really Spanish, I will call it 'España Risotto'

What takes the cake for me is our name for the German football champions: Bayern Munich.

I could understand if we called them Bayern München, the German name. I could understand if we called them Bavaria Munich, the English translation. Yet for some reason we've settled on this halfway house name.
