My cousin has just come home from the Greek island Zante with a few tragic stories and one absolute beauty.
While there sadly two people were killed by some drunks on a quad bike. Another guy choked to death on his own vomit after being physically thrown out of a club, drunk. A suspected head injury, thought to be caused by being physically removed, seems to have caused the young mans collapse and tragic demise. These two incidents should never have happened but with the rise in alcohol related incidents it is becoming all too real.
The "absolute beauty" left me pretty speechless in itself. My cousin and his two friends decided to have a henna tattoo put on their chests. While outside, just for fun, they whipped their trousers down acting silly. No flashing, everything hidden and wearing less than skimpy boxer shorts. The surrounding scene was swearing and cursing, people throwing up in the street because they were stoned and of course fighting.
All of a sudden some policeman came barging towards them. After realising they'd ran past the fights, etc, my cousin and one of his friends darted out of the way. The remaining friend had his hands tied behind his back and was carted away in a police car before the other two had realised it. As soon as possible they got to the police station to see their friend.
Apparently showing your underwear is one of the lowest things you can do here. His friend was told he was lucky the judge couldn't be bothered because it was Sunday otherwise, like a previous guy, he would have had to pay nearly £2,500 in a fine or do a months stint in jail. There were women running round topless, etc, but boxers shorts can cost you dearly. Wow, what a vacation.
