"It's a lovely building. But why did they build it along the Heathrow Airport flight path?"
So said an American once about Windsor Castle.

I was in Amsterdam last year, visiting the Anne Frank museum.
For those who havent been there its a quite non descript house, very narrow entrance but "tardis like" inside in that it seems to go back and upward for ages.
In fact it's (and was) an unremarkable commercial building from the outside with living quarters hidden well inside.
(A good place to hide it would seem)
In fact you would walk right past it if is wasn't for the big museum next door from (which you enter the labyrinth of the house) CLEARLY labelled the ANNE FRANK MUSUEM
Anyway - whilst I was queuing there was a group of American tourist outside moaning that the people of Amsterdam had taken it on themselves to DEMOLISH the original house and build a NEW museum in it's place.
I quote "Europeans destroying their heritage"
They were obviously expecting Buck-ING-ham palace and decided not to waste their money...
.. and walked off.
I left the queue and walked after them, but they still moaning (and I was laughing too much) so I left them to it and joined the back of the queue again.

From what I see on NSC, the Brits have got a bit of a cheek calling anyone else dumb.

i go to uni over here and there about 15 english boys from all over the place............we convinced a group of american cheerleaders that we didnt have an "o" in the alphabet.
We, remarkably, managed to continue repeating the alphabet without saying "o" whilst getting smashed with them!

Presumably you are also trying to convince them that the only capital we have is the 'W'?

To be honest, the video footage is fairly limited to the amount of people they have, im sure, if you asked 100 Americans the same questions, at least 95 of them will get most, if not all of the questions right.

I have on my name badge, "Nick Smith, Safety Manager, United Kingdom".
When sailing out of Houston last year, a large American lady approached me, checked my nationality & said to me very slowly, "Do you speak English?"
"Yes Madam, I am English" I replied.
"Really, did you move to the United Kingdom then?"
I know you shouldn't tar all people with the same brush, but f*** me I've met some dumb ass septic's!
