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!"

Canterbury
Whilst in Canterbury on Saturday, I had the misfortune of being stuck behind a shitload of German tourists in McDonalds. As each gave their order, most managed to order a Big Mac and Coke. Until the very last retard who some how managed to confuse "20 Chicken McNuggets" with "20 Chicken McNugget meals".
Oh, and then there was the Dutch tourists looking for a crappy fete thing. Despite walking right past the thing, I lost count of how many times I was asked in crap English if the fete was "here". I was standing (with girlfriend) in the emptiest park imaginable.
Thankfully, I didn't meet any Americans or Japanese. Yay.
