Octopus of Odstock 2,200 Posted January 12, 2006 Georg Wilhelm, Prinz von Hannover, Herzog zu Braunschweig und Lüneburg has died. Bad day for long-named playboys of nobility: Sheikh Faisal bin Hamad Al Khalifa, aged a mere 15. http://www.albawaba.com/en/countries/Bahrain/193475 What this site doesn't mention that one other one does: It was not known how the prince came to be driving on a public road. Under Bahraini law, one has to be 18 years of age to apply for a driving license Ah well.. S**t happens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Under Bahraini law, one has to be 18 years of age to apply for a driving license Ah well.. S**t happens I know a chap who worked in Oman who said you had to watch out all the time for members of the Royal Family of all ages driving around like loonies. Apparently the Highway Code doesn't apply to nobility in the Middle East. You just have to get out of the way, and if one of them runs into you, you're in big trouble. I suspect whoever it was got in the way of that particular Royal will be having something amputated for his carelessness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
