Whilst not condoning their OTT arrests by the UAE, I think these people bring some of this upon themselves pursuing such activities in backward, toilet states. A bit like the fools who used to go train spotting behind the old Iron Curtain

Harmless hobby really, and very enjoyable if you have a quality video camera. I hope they come home sooner rather than later! :Erm:

It's all about doing your homework before visiting these countries. :cwm25:

Their gaff, their rules. Those Aussies & the stupid Gran should have done a bit more research before deciding to do a spot of drug trafficking in Indonesia :biggrin:

Always glad to get out of those stone-age countries when transiting through Dubai etc. :NoNo:

Stone age :Erm: Sorry Graham, but hardly the right phrase when you've obviously chosen to fly on their airline :smile:

Rich people can buy airlines and football clubs. That doesn't mean I have to respect them, or not take advantage of their cheap air tickets. :anerikke:

It's more hazardous bird spotting in Sulu I would imagine. :wink:
