A drunken British female soldier here on holiday was yesterday given a stiff warning by a magistrate after dancing topless in a Paceville night club.

The blonde 31-year-old Davina Clipston stood in the dock looking embarrassed as lawyers, police officers and members of the public sitting in the gallery sniggered as she was charged with indecent exposure.

Legal aid lawyer Anthony Cutajar played the incident down saying it was only a minor one and that she would be pleading guilty.

Magistrate Miriam Hayman let her off but told her to "try not to do such stupid things as the consequences could have been much worse".

Policemen on the beat spotted Ms Clipston on the dance floor with her top off, exposing her breasts, at 5.30 a.m. on Thursday. They ordered her to get dressed immediately and took her particulars.
