COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - A drunken 78-year-old Swede stole a dinghy after a night out in the Danish town of Helsingor and tried to row back to Sweden, but fell asleep halfway, Danish police said on Monday.

Fess up...SmileWavy

To think I can´t even enjoy a quite row without the media poking their greedy noses in it!!

Actually pretty funny. It could very well have been me some twenty years ago. The ferry ride back and forth from Helsingborg to Helsingör has always been a favorite party zone as they sell cheap alcohol. We did it all the time.

Since 12 years I work at the hospital of Helsingborg, as it happens. I lived there during a few years, but last year I moved back to my roots about 25 miles north of Helsingborg. A small village by the sea called Vejbystrand. You can find it easily on Google Maps. You can even make out my own house on Falkvägen 1.

Thanks for posting Chris, I am honored! :D

I need WHAT you drink...you look GREAT for a 98 year old :)!

Half way? He was in international waters. The Danish police have no juristiction on the high seas!

Thanks, Keith!

Yes, Gaijin. Its an outrage! :D
