An American tourist goes on a pub crawl around London , after several pints and a few pies he really , really needs a crap . After rushing about looking for a toilet and not finding one , he finally comes across a policeman and quickly explains his plight . The policeman thinks for a moment , then says " come with me Sir " , he leads the man down a nearby alley to a pair of large ornate gates " there you are sir anywhere in here will be fine " . The tourist rushes in to find an immaculately manicured lawn and garden , after doing what was necessary he returned to the waiting policeman , " gee thanks a lot I guess thats called British hospitality " . " No Sir replies the policeman , thats called the French Embassy " .
