In Busch gardens many years ago we were there as a group of 10, I was walking along the path minding my own business slightly in front of the rest of our group . A squirrel ran out of the bushes across the path and straight up my leg ! I just stood screaming and stamping my feet. The rest of the group fell about laughing.

So we had a long ride from Key West to Hollywood Beach and were staying at the Marriot, unfortunately the bikes weren't tripping the car park barrier sensors so had to ring the buzzer, the barrier opened and 2 of us went through, Roy who was on the last bike went for it but the barrier came down and whacked him on the top of his crash helmet and his nose, we really should have helped but were to busy laughing it did get us a discount on the rooms though😁

Not Florida, but...
We were on one of the rather famous trams in San Francisco. The driver was a bit of a self appointed comic and selected my son, Daniel as his ‘victim’ for the ride, pretty much as soon as he stood on the running board. “What’s your name, son “ Reply “Daniel. I am from England”. “Daniel from England!”. He then introduced Dan to everybody on the Tram as “Daniel from England”, everybody we went past at slower speed. At the junctions “Hey folks this is Daniel from England. Say hi to Daniel”. Poor old Dan. He is rather conservative and you could see that he wanted the ground to swallow him up. When we reached the Powell turnaround and we got off it was “Thankyou for riding with me, Daniel from England” ... and doubtless he was already eying his next victim for the return ride! An unsuspecting Daniel from England, waiting for and expecting to enjoy his Tram Ride. Edited at 10:26 AM. |

We were in Florida with my parents who were in their 80s.
We went to Publix in Englewood and Mum hesitated in the doorway. An old guy on an ECV came right up behind her and said in a gravelly Jersey accent "Lookout lady" Mum turned round and said in her English accent something like "well I'm very sorry but you ought to be more careful - you nearly ran me over" Well, that was it - the guy was in love 😄. He followed her round the shop asking where she was from and trying to get her to go out on a date with him. Fortunately the guy realised he was wasting his time and rolled off. Dad, DH and I were laughing so much we forgot what we went in for . |

GEORGE

Not Florida but when I was about 10 years old we were on holiday in Spain, I was taking part in some pool activities which were in teams. On of the reps was introducing the teams over a loudspeaker. When he came to say my name GEORGE, he pronounced it GAY OR GE . Of course this set of howls of laughter from my family. As luck would have it we had family friends as well there and some the name stuck for many years even at school. My kids sometimes refer to me as GAY OR GE.

It was so funny. Even now if we see a squirrel he looks at me with sad eyes and says 'remember Steve' and we crack up laughing! Its the fact its not like him at all to get attached like that.
This thread has made me laugh so much as well!

I am a sick individual, I have tears of laughter running down my face, I'm so sorry!
We witnessed the circle of life at Downtown Disney in Anaheim in 2019. A really cute little sparrow was hopping about on the ground just in front of us, I turned to DH to draw his attention to it just as a huge hawk swooped down and all that was left was a small, pink smear on the pavement …. I was horrified that "nature" like that happened at Disney!

We once had some, rare bird alight in Cornwall. Twitchers turned up from all over the Country. It made National News when it ended up embedded in the front grill of a car whilst twitchers watched on aghast.
I often wonder if photographing it after the sad end counted as having ‘spotted it’. If it did, then they might as well visit the Natural History museum and photograph all the birds in there.. they even have a Dodo! (Albeit a composite).
