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!"

Kind of the reverse
My sister and I were in a taxi in Las Vegas. The driver asked us where we were from and I said I lived in Leeds. He said he could tell by my accent, just as he could tell that my sister is from Kent.
We are both from Surrey.
