A few obscure laws
I like to read things like this it reminds you of other stupid things like being able to shoot Welsh people with a bow and arrow inside Chester city walls and after midnight.
Here are some outdated laws which have not been repealed.
1) A bed may not be hung out of a window
2) It is legal for a male to urinate in public, as long it is on the rear wheel of his motor vehicle and his right hand is on the vehicle.
3) It is illegal to eat mince pies on the 25th of December and this applies throughout the whole of England.
4) Taxi drivers are required to ask all passengers if they have smallpox or the plague
5) Any person found breaking a boiled egg at the sharp end will be sentenced to 24 hours in the village stocks (enacted by Edward VI)
6) Any boy under the age of 10 may not see a naked mannequin
7) On licensed premises It is illegal to be drunk.
