Or, more likely, "Hey, you're from London. That's in England, isn't it? Do you know the Smiths? They're an English couple we met last year. They live in Aberdeen..." Etc. Note the multiple levels of cluelessness.

Of course, the Poms can be just as bad. Replace, say, London with Sydney, England with Australia and Aberdeen with Perth (or Auckland!), and you get much the same thing. It happens, folks.
