Stupid Tourists
What'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!"

I hope that this is a true story...
...because it made me chuckle mightily.
A friend of mine claims he overheard some tourists (of unknown origin) while walking between the old Cathedral and the new one at Coventry.
And one tourist did quoth to the other: "How did they manage to bomb that one, and miss the one over there?"
