The 1313 Statute Forbidding Bearing of Armour means no one can take weapons into Prime Minister's Questions.

The Library Offences Act of 1898 means it is still illegal to use your local reading room as a casino.

It is legal for a male to urinate in public, as long as it is on the rear wheel of his motor vehicle and his right hand is on the vehicle.

It is illegal for a lady to eat chocolates on a public conveyance.

It is illegal to beat or shake any carpet rug or mat or erect washing lines in any street in London.

A licence is required to keep a 'lunatic'.

:shock:
