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!"

German CricketAbout 20 years ago I went on holiday to a small island off the coast of Tunisia, called Djerba. The beach there wasn't frequented much as everyone seemed to prefer the pools, the sea was pretty cold that time of year. The only people on the beach were a group of German tourists.
There were there on the beach playing cricket with a plank of wood and one of the numerous fuzzy brown balls lying around on the sand.
Since I didn't know the German for camel shit, I wasn't really able to tell them what the balls were made of!
