Ah but would you know how to pronounce Belvoir Castle?

I have to admit I didn't when I moved here, pronouncing the street of the same name exactly as its spelled. I was corrected loudly & in a very patronising way by a colleague. (Beaver apparently).

I let her carry on saying "tortiller" and "jally-penyo". Figured she deserved to be laughed at.
