If someone knocks on your door and requires the use of your commode - you must let them enter.

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.

No boy under the age of 12 may see a naked shop mannequin.

No one is allowed to die in Parliament. Well except the Queen. Westminster is a royal palace and anyone dying in a royal palace is eligible for a state funeral. So to avoid a costly funeral, if anyone does die - his or her body is removed before the death certificate is issued.

In Liverpool, it is illegal for a woman to be topless in public unless she a clerk in a tropical fish store.

In Bristol lovers are not allowed to kick a dog out of bed as apparently a dog but not a cat - has the right to be a voyeur.

London taxi drivers are supposed to ask passengers if they are suffering from smallpox or the plague, since carrying sufferers is illegal

A law introduced in 1307 ensures that the head of any dead whale found on the British coast becomes the property of the king and the tail belongs to the queen - should she need the bones for her corset.

It is illegal to wear armour in the Houses of Parliament

Eating mince pies on Christmas Day is an offence.

It isnt an offence to murder a Scotsman within the ancient city walls of York - but only if he is carrying a bow and arrow.

It is an act of treason to place a postage stamp bearing the British king or queen's image upside-down

By law all London taxi cabs have to carry a bale of hay in the front.

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).

and loads loads more
