Fun stuff and competitions

Fun stuffYour education is vitally important but sometimes it's good to take your mind off work and studying for a moment and do something a bit lighter. So having found the section of our site rather broadly called 'fun stuff', if you have a moment or two to spare have a look at the following items which will hopefully amuse and interest you.

Strange and funny laws in the UK

Outdated laws we have found.....although we are not entirely convinced they are all true!

  • One may not drive a cow while drunk 
  • It is illegal to either shave, work or to mow your lawn on a Sunday
  • It is illegal for a lady to eat chocolates on a public conveyance
  • A bed may not be hung out of a window
