Stupid TouristsWhat'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!"

SealsI've loads of these since I've worked for years as a wildlife warden. While doing guided tours at Lands End, a tourist asked whether the grey shapes lying about on the helipad of the offshore lighthouse (which is on the top of the bloody thing) were seals....
"Yes, I replied, the lighhousekeepers leave the doors oepn so the seals can climb the stairs to get a good place to sunbathe"
