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!"

In America and I was the touristI was in a backwater bar one afternoon in New Hampshire with a Dutch friend Yeori.
A nasty middle aged woman heard us speaking and asked, "Hey, are you guys Irish?"
To which I replied, "I'm English and he's Dutch."
Later we heard her say to someone, "Did you see those two Irish guys? He's English and he's Dutch."
Think about it. A hint if you're slow - What was Arnie's character called in Predator?
Apols for being off topic.
