I’ve recently received my official poll card for the European Parliament election and am somewhat bemused by the instructions for locating my polling station.

The correct address and post code – BH9 1RN – are given but the accompanying map directs me to Shelley Park in Boscombe!

Has the person responsible for producing the cards mis-Googled or did they use their SatNav? Fortunately, as a long-term BH9 resident, I shan’t need the map to locate my polling station!

I’d be interested to know if any other voters been misdirected – this could lead to confusion on polling day!
