Ah, Americans once again
Not really overheard. Well I was stood next to the conversation at the time.

Anyway, my mate Freya (v scottish lady) and I were stood outside a cinema in New York chatting when a slightly alarming looking man with massive trousers wondered over to have a chat.

SAM: I hear you're Irish
Freya: Nope, Scottish
SAM: Oh well, same country
Freya: Actually no they're different countries
SAM: Well, they're joined together
Freya: Actually, no there's a sea between them. I'd get wet if I walked to Ireland

This was only toppend by the yank who refused to believe in the existence of Wales until I started talking about Catherine Zeta Jones (bleugh), Anthony Hopkins and the like
