Dull in Perthshire is set to host its US twin Boring in October and a flag had been designed for the occasion.
But residents of Dull and Boring have had their celebrations gatecrashed by Bland, the Mirror reported.
Delegates from the Bland shire visited Dull after hearing that it had linked up with logging town Boring in Oregon, USA.
Bland ambassador Gail Platz said that Dull is beautiful and the Shire is excited about teaming up with it and Boring.
