Amazing displays of ignoranceSandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

I met a Canadian while abroad some years agoand for some reason we were having a discussion about the Euro.
My favourite part of the whole conversation was when she said "Well, you may not have the Euro in Devon, but I'm pretty sure you have it in the rest of the country"

to be fairthere are a number of tourist traps in the UK willing to take your Euro at inflated exchange rates. If they never went beyond hotels, H A Rods, or a few landmarks, they might never realise it.
Isn't that the point of modern tourism? Observing a culture rather than engaging with it.
