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!"

Bloody Americans
I was strolling merrily through Bath, when a young american tourist comes up to me and says "Watch out for that pigeon, dude, it has a real narly attitude." Bemused, I respond by saying "Yeah, you want to look out for those bloody pigeons." The yanks immediatley start laughing and doing fake mocking english accents. I fail to see how they can talk, they were from the south (and probably inbred.)
