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!"

Where do I start?Working at a historical theme park for many years I have hundreds .. nay thousands of examples. The best been those (and yes there were more than one) that asked how we built our underground mine? When told that we dug it using mining equipment, they responded with "So you didn't build it first and then cover it with dirt?"
Best answer to that was one guide who said "Actually we did. It was delivered on the back of a truck, but some bits fell off which explains why there are so many potholes in the main street"
