Groom With A View

Was His Name Rob Roy?

A desperate bridegroom in Austria staged four bank robberies, taking more than £300,000, after his wife-to-be's plans for a huge white wedding got out of hand. But it still wasn't enough for his fiancee who demanded 500 guests, a Chanel gown, a new car and a Caribbean honeymoon. He was eventually caught by an off-duty policeman.

FOOTNOTE: More bank for his buck.

    This is a treasure trove of lessons for us women in there!

    Btw, what's the matter with those Austrians? Where have I moved to???

  3. Hope he never said 'I do' before the justice system had their chance to rescue him from a life tied to such a money-grabbing spouse!

  6. Seems like an extreme way to get out of the marriage.
