African's on the run in OZ - I'm not Thelma, and he's not Louise!

A Prison Officer and an a Soilder, the vast Australian outback, boxing, car chases, a jilted lover. This is bigger than Thelma and Louise. This is the story of - Iddi and Karim.

To some the Commonwealth Games 2006 in Melbourne Australia was just the beginning. Although it ended last weekend, some of our african collegues decided to extend their stay. You have to feel for the guy's 17 year old new wife, stuck back in that 2 room flat back in Tanzania, with the in-laws.

I love the non-chalant response of the Tanzanian authorities, 'hey it happens all the time.'

All i can say is Run Forest Run!!!!!!!
