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!"

I used to live in Malaysia.I was in a bar one night and a stupid English tourist asked the best way to Eye-poh.
How I laughed. He, of course, meant Ipoh.
Blah blah blah about Royal Sel-lang-gor pewter products.
Blah blah blah of course, he meant Royal Selangor pewter.
This is all of course bollocks but no more so than the Loogaburooga stories.
