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!"

When in Paris just before Christmasmy (now ex) girlfriend had convinced me that we had to go to disneyland we were in the que for the Star Wars ride (CP-30 sounds all the worse in French) talking away when the guy in charge said there were two places left and looking at me asked how many. Of course I answered in my best " Oui, deux" to which four Glasgow nedettes with a pram turned to me and went "Bloody Frenchies"
Needless to say I was rolling.
