- Any boy under the age of 10 may not see a naked mannequin.

- In Scotland it is illegal to be a drunk in possession of a cow.


UK laws that WON"T get you into trouble:

- In Chester you can only shoot a Welsh person with a bow and arrow inside the city walls and after midnight.

- In Hereford you may not shoot a Welsh person on Sunday with a longbow in the Cathedral Close
