Three British children taken into care after middle-class parents 'drank themselves into a stupor' on Algarve holiday
The children, one-year-old Adam, two-year-old Amy and Aaron, six, were picked up by their parents the following day.
Staff at the Aparthotel Mourabel in Vilamourain called police after Eamon McGuckin, 34, and his wife Antoinette, 32, passed out on Friday night.
"This behaviour should be confined to football hooligans, not some married parents. Sickening.
- Graeme Carter, London, UK"

and that nation has to be careful these days.
They are due in court

The family's newly-built £450,000 detached house in Londonderry, Northern Ireland
hope the Portugese authorities make a strong example out of these two people. British tourists in general are very unpopular and barely tolerated by the locals - I spent three days in Salou last year and was appalled at all the 'beached whales' lying comatose around the pool surrounded by pint glasses and empty crisp packets... and I am referring to the women!

| No ... it is no joke LTNS. People should never knowingly drink themselves senseless when in charge of minors. But neither is it something for a epigrammatic poster to start lecturing over. |

Maybe thedelboy is as fed up as me with the way you keep dragging up all these sensationalist stories. I'm surprised you haven't started a thread on that Austrian ... I suppose it is a bit too serious a case for your tastes. |

A couple of parents got dead drunk while in charge of two young children is more news worthy then a man who imprisons his 18 year old daughter in a cellar, keeps her there for 24 years, has 7 children with her, three of whom he brings upstairs to live with his wife (the children's grandmother) and three he leaves in the cellar with their mother and one who died shortly after birth he burns in a domestic incinerator?

| Language Timothy LT I find it highly amusing that yet again you do not wait for facts,as it happens they could have been suffering from jetlag or any other stress related illness (I believe one paper did state that and the cops did not dispute that ,it was the hotel manager that stated they were blind drunk no one else has corroborated the allegation) |

There you go with your generalisations again. Austrians are not Nazi ... they are Austrians. Good grief LTNS, do you ever see any shades of grey or is it all just black and white with you? |

Hmmm ... parents getting dead drunk and leaving kids alone. Sounds a lot like my childhood.
Don't you sometimes think society is getting far too overprotective and indulgent of children. |

I just took the time to read the whole story and noticed this:quote:
The couple, who had arrived in the resort earlier that day, fear their drinks were spiked by robbers who target new arrivals, the Daily Mirror reported today.
The couple are said to have have told friends they became ill around 30 minutes after drinking a jug of sangria. The couple's former GP Dr Cyril Harkin said: "I've known them for years. They were drugged. I have no doubt."
So, are they 'irresponsible parents who should be locked up' or victims of tourist-drugging crooks?

He is Very Rich
Saying his drinks were Spiked
Clears him - He can say a Lepricon did it
and you would follow that Rich Blokes story.
But It is a 100% Fact that under the rules you must care for little children.
So No way am I dumb to follow that rich blokes cover up.

| LT I have personally been to most countries in the world(OK when I have on the occasion imbibed too much I have felt out of this world,or mayhaps just out of it)now I have seen via my old job kids ie teenagers and even adults who have had thier drinks spiked so as they can be robbed of thier cash goods jewelry etc etc,FACT even in Holland newbies getting gifts of cake by disreputable persons in cafes such as "Ricks" "Hard rock"just to name but a few theses Cafes do thier best to keep an eye on not just thier customers but they contact the other cafes if they happen to catch a person out, now "Amsterdam" has not only the regular police they have the redlight police(a group of people who look after the reputation of "Canalstraase" and the surounding area;the eye tunnel police are the police who are like the bloudy "SAS" are the ones you do not upset ! and they are the ones who have constantly tried to tell the tourists what to look out for!! so come on if it can happen there can it not happen in "Portugal"? For once can you just admit you jumped the gun in your condemnation? |

| Yes "Lt" they were! but only because a hotel manager was worried due to the father asking him ;to call an ambulance due to his wifes obvious discomfort as well as his own. The hotel manager was also worried about the fact if they had been drinking in his bar/restaurant HE would have been in the shit due to porteugese LAW did he .sky news 19 45hrs |

I think LTNS has acquired the habit of just glancing at articles and stories ... when they seemingly, at first glance, support one or another of his prejudiced narrow minded world views, he will link to it without double checking.
LTNS must indeed try harder. |
