I'm surprised they were allowed on the aircraft if they were that drunk.

Airlines take a very hypocritical view to alcohol in my opinion, on one hand they have policies saying drunkenness is not allowed on board and they reserve the right to refuse permission to fly if they think you might be too far gone, yet get on board and immediately they crack open the duty free sales and in flight drinks.As an example I use Jet2 to fly from Leeds to Dubrovnik as it saves a 5 hour each way drive to Gatwick. They made a big song and dance about their zero tolerance policy: http://www.jet2.com/News/Jet2_com_Takes_Zero_Toler...
Yet the minute you get on board they are pushing deals like three miniatures for £10, deals on bottles of wine etc. It would be nice to think that people would show restraint and drink sensibly and socially but as we all know that doesn't happen.
I just spotted this while playing a game on my phone and it reminded me of this thread...
Of course, it's in Norn Iron, as you'd probably have guessed. I love the juxtaposition of the new house and Range Rover Sport against blockwork walls at the end of the drive, and partially stripped cars and trucks in the garden.

Asking people 'if thats a rolex' or worse, 'is that a real rolex'?

Southampton. So much council, no matter how much they try and deny it. 
And a building company director... So, a self-employed brickie.
His description reads so much like a PHer... (except for the employment - a "normal" PHer would be in IT middle management)

Both bags were reuinted with the correct owners later that day. He said he was convinced that my fake was his genuine.

Having fake rolex and luggage... how council. On a similar topic. On a trip to Ireland, in the baggage reclaim, my FAKE Louis Vitton bag was taken by another passenger thinking it was his GENUINE one.

Council as a councillor in a very council place.

Are you sure that was the reason? Nobody I know has ever been asked if their watch was real. When fake expensive watches first appeared in the early eighties, it was quite obvious that they were hookey.
Dodgy bracelet, 'Gold' peeling from the body, light as a feather etc.
I purchased many in the far east and was outed as a fake by many.
Over the years the quality improved, so much so that where derision was the default position, compliments were the order of the day.
My Submariner survived for many years until being replaced by a fake TAG Monaco, which is still going strong today.

I have never been asked about the authenticity of either of my watches. Is this something people actually do?
If so I would have thought the better the fake (as in your example) the more often the question would be asked as they would be harder to spot.
