i got the bus home last night and there were 2 american cliches on the seat in front of me. as the bus trundled through knightsbridge, they were slaying me. comments like:

"oooooh, a casino, do you think it's for gambling like back home?"

"i dunno, do the brits have gambling?"

and:

"where's harrods? i can't see it!"

"there"

"oh. is that it?" [fair enough]

and:

"these little roads are so small, how does the 'bus' not tip over?" [again fair enough given her girth, which was plastered up against one side of the bus]

and:

"gee, that's where princess di lived, look." [whilst pointing at the royal albert hall, NOT kensington palace]
