He even has his own Wikipedia (en.wikipedia.org) page - although it's pretty light on content, much like the man himself! |

| 1195864 | 2011-04-23 11:44:00 | Ahh....Let me see now... Cost of diverting from a NZ-UK flight to go via Argentina instead, including cancellation and rebooking fees, extra flight costs, accommodation etc; say, $NZ2500 or more perhaps, VS urgent courier Argentina-London for 5kG parcel, let's be generous, say $NZ500. $500 vs $2500? Lovelorn bloke must be thick, but she must be thicker. Either that or she was a willing courier. She will get what she deserves, whether adjudged to be downright stupid, or guilty of drug smuggling as charged. They walk amongst us.......... Cheers Billy 8-{) :groan: From NZH "She was going to fly directly to London from Australia and then he called her and needed her to pick something up for him in Argentina. So he paid for the change in the ticket and she went via Argentina, picked up whatever it was, and then was detained at the airport." |

Don't see your point really, My comment simply related to the relative cost of couriering the "parcel", whatever form it took, as opposed to changing flights along with all the attendant costs of accommodation etc. Surely she would have wondered why she needed to go to Argentina when there were plenty of cheaper options, and lover-boy wasn't going to be there either. She is either thick as two short planks, or was wool-blinded by "love", while he was a skilled manipulator and was using her as a mule. Either way, she is probably going to wear the consequences and have plenty of time "on holiday' in Argentina to regret it, unless our government bails her out! Cheers Billy 8-{) |

Cheers Billy 8-{) I guess my point was that he was paying for the flight and costs to Argentina. And if she was so in love with him, a free fight to Argentina wouldn't in her mind raise any doubts. We don't know what story he told her about the suitcase etc. |
