Just seen this post now I've woken up and read the thread properly. It wasn't Stan who the police came for but he might have done it, I will ask him.
It was my father in law who signed John Okul and Stanley came along for the ride. John wouldn't sign without his mate so they got both but it was Okul they wanted. They lived with my missus and her dad for a little while and then they moved them into a flat above lucky star. One day they had been told to come to their house for 'tea' and mother in law had prepared them a massive Sunday roast, All the trimmings etc. The daft sods had no idea that it meant a meal and they thought she meant a cuppa so smashed in a massive feast from lucky star then set off. Still managed to deal with the full Sunday lunch 15 mins later as well
The PNG boys really take some settling. Makali just didnt didn't understand the culture and thought the ducks were fair game. He now buys sheep hearts from the butchers and pretty much lives off them. About 60p for 5 big lumps!!
We had 2 at Featherstone Rovers and when the kit man went to do a house inspection they were living in just the front room. They had never been upstairs. They were washing, peeing and dumping in the kitchen sink and only getting showered at post office Road. They didn't know they could even go upstairs. Thought it was someone else's house.
Father in law tells a story about when Marcus Bai came and they had gone to pick him up from his flat. When they got there he was sat in darkness with a candle. He flicked the light switch on and Marcus kind of curled up in a ball like it was some kind of witch craft! These lads often came straight from the jungle and had no help on adapting. Its different now of course as PNG is developing.
Anyway, there are your morning tales from PNG.
