    Plenty do, but they're not as familiar (therefore embittered by experience) as us Brits.

      Don't see why not. I've spent a few days in a Bangkok jail, been held at gunpoint in Nepal and been arrested here and Australia. Uk is well easiest

        MF, have you ever been in a Turkish prison?
        How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

          No, but I've been in a Turkish sauna. Does that count?

            I've been escorted off a golf course by a guy with a machine gun in Indonesia. (no not an automatic rifle, I mean machine gun)

            Something about walking on the grass, he was quite upset.

              Sorry forgot that. Had to be escorted from Surabaya bus station by a police escort after getting into an argument with a local tax driver, with me shouting Kamu mencuri Kamu pencuri (which closely translates to you thief you liar).

              It then turned into a flash mob with about 20 people jostling me and another guy trying to lynch us.

              WOW! Somethings just don't change do they!

                Possibly not - but it winds me up when people start whining about justice when they break the laws of another country.

                1.If you love British justice - stay at home.
                2.Don't break laws abroad.
