Besides, people appreciate it more if they have to work for it.

I'm sorry, I see TBAS has now linked to the main event as well.

erm, surely what a man does with his two-wheeled friend in the privacy of his hotel room is his own business?
I understand that a gentleman who roots pavements in full public view might warrant the attention of the local constablary, but bike-shagging in private seems harmless enough to me.
(Mind you, it's a bit dangerous. He might get his thingy stuck in the chain.)

That was my thought, too. I'm assuming the prosecution had more to do with him ignoring the housekeeping staff's knocking/calling, and what how he may have reacted once they opened the door and found him and his two-wheeled sweetheart.

Not if he's a Royal. Or the bicycle is. (I mean, some of them look as if they move around on wheels).

Ah but this wasn't a hotel as I read it, it was a hostel. In a hotel you have paid substantially to be treated as a resident. In a hostel you are paid for by the state to be an inmate. This has substantial relevance to your rights to be treated with respect and consideration for your privacy, and - it seems - to your right to fuck two-wheeled modes of transport

Good grief, where did this definition of 'hostel' come from?

Well, he was evidently behind a locked door.
And what's this about it being an offence to have sex with an inanimate object? God Almighty. That means every dildo, blow-up doll and half the wives of this world.
Every second bloke and quite few woman will be registered as sex offenders soon. [ 03. November 2007, 05:28: Message edited by: Left at the Altar ]
