This is a question Stuff You've Overheard

Are you a nosey bastard who likes earwigging other peoples conversations? What's the best you've ever heard? From terrorist plots to intimate details of other peoples sex lives. We want to hear it all.

I once was walking behind some tourists
as they left Waverly train station in Edinburgh. For those that don't know the city, you come out of the station onto Princes street and are confronted with a magnificent view of the castle.

This particular evening, the castle looked resplendant in all it's floodlit glory - enough to bring a patriotic tear to even the most stony of Scottish hearts.

"That's the castle?" exclaimed one obviously dissapointed tourist, "It looks more like a building!"

I managed to suppress the urge to slap him over the head and draw a Venn diagram to illustrate the set of buildings and the subset of castles.
