And yes, they have a huge TV, satellite TV (not for UK programmes), gas-guzzling car, lots of gold jewelry, plenty of branded sportswear and a large drinks cabinet.

And a lot of outstanding bills, both here and back home, using various identities that he and his wife have. He has already spent time in prison after being arrested on the border into the Czech Republic for credit fraud. He had to hitchhike back to Dover after that incarceration.

And they are one of the nice families! All their other friends are crooks... and he's the one who describes them as such!

They're very fortunate to have had such a compassionate and supportive friend as yourself to help with their bills and make them feel welcome in the UK.
