Planks
Until yesterday, the best random thing we ever heard was a man nodding in agreement to his wife, mumbling "1000 watts? Yes, that IS a powerful Microwave".

Whilst on holiday.

So what happened yesterday? The Cornwall County Fair, we're walking through the Frank Dibna groupie section (steam engines etc) and towards us staggers a pikey with two freshly sawn 20 foot long planks.

I mean, fucking huge planks.

Out of nowhere, a friendly fair-goer in a wifebeater offers to lend him a hand with his ridiculous burden, and just as we pass them, asks

"so where are we going?"

To which the immortal reply was given

"To the Wall of Death".

Best overheard conversational snippet in 35 years...

Also: I once heard a woman in a supermarket asking for four ounces of cheddar. Fucking zany. You had to be there.
