No such thing as a stupid question?

WE have all heard someone say, “this may be a stupid question, but…” and while the polite response is to assure the question asker there is no such thing as a stupid question, travel agents around the world are bound to encounter at least one whopper during their career. Australian travel agents have had to summon answers for the following: "What type of car is needed to drive from the Great Barrier Reef to Perth?" "I'm doing a crossword at the moment and need your help. What is the name of that really tall building in the Gold Coast?'' Another wanted to know why Australian stop signs were shaped like hexagons and why "they always plant bananas on slopes''. A smoker wanted to know how many cartons of cigarettes they could take on their driving holiday to Queensland and a swimmer asked call centre staff to predict how many people would be in their hotel pool on Good Friday. Yet another asked for staff to compile a list of toilets they could visit while driving from Cairns to Brisbane.
