And dont get me started on what they think of Scotland . . .

'Scotland? Is that, like, a village?'

'No, it's a country. I live near Glasgow.'

'Oh, Glasgow . . . that's a village, yeah?'

*seethes* And if they ever say 'Och aye the noo' to me again I'll shove my white cane down their throat.

I always thought it was quite funny when they say 'Ock I duh noo'. Their feeble attemps are so, so .... feeble. And when they try to say its braw and always end up saying its bra. xd

What annoys me is when they say how quiant it is. And treat the place like its some sort of medival fairground.
"No, Im not going to catch a haggis, Im going to the supermarket"
*bashes stereotypes*

And you know what the most annoying is. Where I live would be dead without them. Im just trying to think of a family with someone in my year that doesnt get any income from tourism. There must be but I cant think of any.

*Trys to think of on topic comment*
I heard that the London bombing isnt going to affect the American tourists coming here.

Friends dad was on the bus that was blown up. Police phoned her mobile in english and told her he was in hospital. She cried.


Damn, that sucks. I am sorry for her.

I was doing a magazine delivery. "Curious" I thought as I noticed in every house I delievered too where people on the phone confused . Then there was a man washing his car, his radio was one. It stated the blasts and then it became perfectly clear why everybody was on their phones.

Scary eek

Did anyone else see the people commemorating one week since the blasts? All the people standing outside in utter silence was really sad, and a bit spooky.

That's a bit why I thought that big thing was going a bit over the top. Yes, people died, but, having a sort of party thing to show our comiserations?

I think the 2 minute silence, and leaving flowers near the scenes would be enough.

The difference between Americans and the British? Or just less people died, and though it was horrible it lacked the symbolic power of blowing up the Twin Towers?
