A celebrity model who once portrayed the swashbuckling Lara Croft has been airlifted out of Iraq because she doesn’t like the toilets used by British forces. Nell McAndrew, 30, was given a helicopter ride Monday to Kuwait and a luxury hotel, from where she shuttled back into Iraq for morale-boosting pre-Christmas visits to British troops. "There was some difficulty over the toilets and showers," Squadron Leader Alison Simmonds, a spokeswoman at the British military base in Basra, southern Iraq, told Britain’s domestic Press Association news agency on Wednesday.
"She just couldn’t get the hang of squat ’n’ pop." |
