Stupid TouristsWhat's the stupidest thing you've ever heard a tourist say? Ever heard an American talking about visiting "Scotchland, England", or (and this one is actually real) a Japanese couple talking about the correct way to say Clapham is actually Clatham, as "ph" sounds are pronounced "th". Which has a certain logic really. UPDATE: Please, no more Loogabarooga stories. It's getting like, "and I opened my eyes and my mum had left me a cup of tea!"

Yanks in BathCouple of questions asked by Americans in Bath:
Q, Which is older, the Abbey or the Roman Baths?
A, Er, possibly the Baths, by about 1,500 years give or take.
Q, Whereabouts is this famous Abbey I've been told about?
A, I think you'll find it's the huge Church-type thing you're stood in front of.
I blame all the polyester leisure wear, the static electricity shuts down brain functions.
