    From "Trinidad and Tobago’s Newsday" newspaper 2/6/11: “...there is a thriving underground sex industry and high demand makes Trinidad and Tobago one of the preferred destinations in the Caribbean for human trafficking.”

    What they fail to point out is that those that wear kilts are more likely to dance with the lovely lass.

    That ad would not last long in Scotland and it would not get the approval of the UK Advertising Authority's seal of approval in any case.

    There are so many boxes it does not tick and as to the rum it's trying to plug forget it - think I will have a nice drop of single malt instead!
