[Morpheus]

Happened to be in USA just after the first "croc dundee" film had been released over there.........it was great everyone buying us drinks and wanted to know all about....Walkabout creek....mainly in the counrty.

I tend not to stereo type anyone, just take the person as they come.

[Mr. C]

i spose a sterotype we have of yanks is that they are load mouthed and think that they are always right and that the earth revelves around the u.s

Sounds about right............

[Mr. C]

....WAIT!! Thats not true? It is for all the tourists i've met.....dam tourists taking over all the good places in Australia **slap**::hammer:

:smokin:

Actually, that same phenomenon occurs here -- ever heard of Florida?

[Wiggo's-sister]

The loud mouths sound like typical Aussies males in a pub on a Friday

Ten foot tall and bullet proof :shoot2:

[Mr. C]

I think that's a rare universal constant -- happens in liquor establishments the world over.:D

[Wiggo's-sister]

I was just trying to break the American bashing those guys were doing.
Letting them know that not only Americans are like that and that Aussies can be like that too.:)

Mr.C had a look around Flordia it was very comercial and that was back in 1988.
Miami great weather, found good cheap accomodation not far from the beach but away from all the tourtist stuff. Seamed to spend a fair amount of time watching the young ladies enjoying them selfes playing beach ball..... while quitely sipping on a Corona (and yes i know what they say it is)

And travellers yes i have seen loud americans,have also witnessed actions from aussies far more offensive
you will always get a few wankers no matter what country.

In this area regards shooting it is good (not many idiots) as The Grampian mountain range is a national park no shooting,dogs cats ect allowed within its boundries. The land around the park is open farmland used mainly for grazing sheep so outsiders find it hard to get permission to hunt

Idiots, homegrown and visitors (we derisively call them snowbirds here in Southwest Florida) are universal. We are usually more critical of outsiders for common reasons: The annoy us, use up limited resources, are overly impressed with their own intelligence etc. Alcohol seldom improves an idiot as much as we feel it improves ourselves.
