              It's illegal to:

              Handle a salmon in suspicious circumstances.
              Be drunk in a pub
              Ride a cow whilst drunk (double offence if done in pub)

                  I know they repealed that law for the taxi drivers (a taxi driver used it as a defence - and lost :heehee:) but don't know whether it was also repealed for bus drivers etc.
