On their salaries, surely they could have afforded a hotel room?
Hardly in the 'fling of youth' either - she was 36 - strangely, but true to form, they didn't mention his age on the radio!!
I did something vaguely similar in Saudi Arabia when I was 17 - but we made it to his home first!!!!
Mind you, at 5am I then went on to do something not exactly legal - when there were plenty of people about - I walked the dog!!!!
The only reason I wasn't charged was because the dog came from King Faisal's kennels and no-one could get near him (or me) as he had a reputation for taking the a*se out of people he hadn't been 'introduced' to!! LOL

I dont have any sympathy for them, they broke the laws of the country in which they were staying.

However, and very controversially, I feel the same should apply in the UK which was a traditionally Christian British community. So why is it an issue that cribs are displayed at Xmas and the St Georges flag flown when the soccer team are playing??????????????????? This an OBSERVATION of my last time in the UK in 2002 when we were not allowed to have a crib displaying in the local shopping centre and many locals were asked to remove their flags during the 2002 world cup.

Its much the same............................when in Rome.....


Sorry for being controversial but!

love T.x

lol Daff............I'm like you..........a bit of a floating voter...........having read all the comments and points of view..........I have to say I have a certain amount of sympathy but also agree that the laws of the land should've been respected. However........I am often a tad naughty (not in that way I hasten to add) after a glass or three of vino soooooo..........who am I to throw stones lol xx

MrDaff Report 16 Oct 2008 21:43

Well...... I do and I don't... yep, they broke the law of the land they were visiting..... but heck... some of the people of that land break ours with impunity and sooooo get away with it!!

Maybe they thought that a reciprocal arrangement is made with the judiciary of both countries.

Me? I don't trust our own judicial procedures, and due process of law, lol.... sure as heck I don't trust any other country!!

I try not to be judgemental myself as well..... it always comes back and bites me, lol!!

Love

lol Dermot.

I don't think anyone has said they weren't in the wrong and shouldn't have known better. We all know them's the rules there and they have to face the consequences. But the question was whether we have any sympathy or not and I do cos I've regretted many a morning after a few glasses too many.

Uggers
Of course they have ,but that doesn't mean it is legal, nor does it mean you can in countries that have a lesser view on morality than we do.
Incidentally i am not a prude but i wouldn't like to be walking along a beach with my grandchildren and see that sort of thing. There is enough of the drunken yobbo culture in this country,
