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!"

A classic yank moment
When visiting an exhibition of items recovered from the wreck of the titanic, I overheard and saw an American lady point to a collection of plates and say "Gosh! Look at the coins!"
...no more needs to be said.
