A man from Doncaster has won a landmark court case meaning that he will receive a kiss from a girl after winning the right to the kiss in a game of spin the bottle... 23 years after the event.
Neil Dorkings a 39 year old electrician spoke outside the court saying "I'm absolutely made up, we were playing the game at a mutual friends birthday party, I span the bottle and it landed on her. I don't think anything of her at the time but I recently added her as a friend on Facebook and wow, has she come of age.
The ruling is thought to lead to an unprecedented number of "debts" being settled years after they were won and left unclaimed.
People betting on things like Mouse Trap and Monopoly for marbles, sweets and the loser getting a punch in the arm are now thought to soon be settled.
The girl in question wishes to remain anonymous said "I'm disgusted, the game ended 23 years ago, the rules are that once you leave the circle that's it but the judge saw it otherwise.
Judge Brian Morestan QC has over 15 years experience said "nowhere in the rules does it stipulate that the kiss expires after a period of time. If she didn't want to get involved she shouldn't have played the game, she did, she lost and now it's time to pay, it's as simple as that.
