In London: 'And I dreamt I hit my mother with a lettuce leaf!'

The simplest thing is to find out where someone is from before even entertaining the idea of even looking in their direction :beer: .
The way I do this is to spot the odd manky types on Brick Lane who are in need of a wash and comb:rotfl: . They are usually guaranteed to have arrived on a bicycle and be living locally and will definately not be going back home to the USA :j .

There's a brilliant website that has lists and lists of these: http://www.themanwhofellasleep.com/gossip.html
Recent classics include:
"[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]It's absolutely stupid that you can only get two prams on a bus at the same time. This is the 21st century!"
"[/FONT][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]You know how you tell when Sophie's at a party? When she's not on effing facebook."
"[/FONT][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Every shoe shop I went into, I was followed by four Turkish guys shouting at each other."
"[/FONT][FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Lidl in Paris do real special offers... huge TVs for peanuts. What does our Lidl sell? cheap compost and nylon pants."
I love it!

I was sat outside a pub with some friends one evening. A man dressed as a cavalier, walked up and looked through the window then asked 'Do you think I can get a pushchair in there'.
(There had been a re-enactment battle going on earlier in the day apparently, but it was a bit surreal)
