This is a question 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!"

Not me, but my gran.
She lives in a nice place called Bradford-on-Avon. She once had a bus load full of German tourists saying "Is this Bradford then?"

They must have got a bit lost on the way. Bradford-on-Avon is near Trowbridge.

The bradford they were looking for and The one they arrived at.

Go there. See the Tithe Barn and Saxon church. Go. I command thee.
