Bog Standard Double Portrait

Two of this evening's guests, up at the "Friday Bar". They asked if I wanted to take their portrait. Who was I to refuse? They looked very relaxed and happy, even if I had posed them myself I couldn't have arranged them better. They might have had a drink or two, they might just be great buddies or it might be they had just relieved themselves of a lot of beer....but I thought they made for a great portrait. 

Can't use it for work though, they couldn't really understand the reason for a model release form, we had a verbal agreement - they were fine with that. How do you deal with this issue as a photographer in a country's third biggest tourist attraction?

Some colleagues, atmosphere and a very disappointed me in the extras today....useable as far as Carlsberg is concerned, legally speaking.
