January 27, 201214 yr Hackey carriages (black cabs) by law, have to carry what ? and another thing you may not of known. but being the son of a Yorkshire lass as i am ! in order to be able to play for the county of Yorkshire at county cricket level. up until a short while a go, you had to have actually been born in Yorkshire. oh, and another thing. they eat fruit cake with cheese. and the phrase " a night out on the tiles" means exactly that. in the old days people that would board in rooms around the city of London, would have to sleep out on the roofs after coming home late after a night out on the town.

January 28, 201214 yr I'm guessing one of those outdated laws that have never been changed/removed. So, something to do with horses?
January 28, 201214 yr I'm guessing one of those outdated laws that have never been changed/removed. So, something to do with horses? It's a bail of hay. There are many old laws that have never been removed, like the shooting of Welshmen in Chester after midnight, the reason is that you would have to re-write the books every time, instead they are cancelled out by new laws and the newer law supersedes the old ones. You can't shoot a Welshman in Chester as it's committing murder.
January 29, 201214 yr That's bale Thad, bail is what your wife has to try to find for you after a particularly spectacular night on the town....

Yeh, I know, I saw it as soon as I hit the post button but couldn't be bothered to edit it for one letter and get Edited by Thaddeus a minute later stuck on the bottom of it. As far as I know there is no law anywhere that make typo's a hanging offence ...... except in the general forum maybe.

January 29, 201214 yr The driver of a hackney carriage is allowed to urinate on the rear wheels in public. Nope, sorry, it was permissible for horse drawn vehicles as the driver could not leave it unattended, but is is illegal for anyone to urinate in public now apart from pregnant women and girls under six years old, not in a policeman's hat either as some people think.

February 2, 201214 yr The driver of a hackney carriage is allowed to urinate on the rear wheels in public. No, it is offside front wheel. I believe it is still legal for lorry drivers, was when I was in London, '50s OOOOOOPs I went a googling......... - In the UK, a man who needs to relieve himself in public can do so only if he aims for his rear wheel of his own car and keeps his right hand on the vehicle. .....note it says 'car'....lol I'm going to Birmingham. - In Birmingham, after sundown it is against the law for a man and a woman to partake in sexual intercourse on church steps. OK dawn till dusk, no doubt. Go read... funny as....... http://whoartnow.hubpages.com/hub/101-Strangest-Laws-From-Around-The-World
