Mail for help.Help!!

Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

According to the BBC:

The Law Society last year revealed other bizarre UK laws still in existence on the statute book.

They included ... a ban on the use of any slide upon ice or snow (Town Police Clauses Act 1847)

Don't tell this to the peeps at Yad Moss... Besides, they're redundant; still amusing though. Smile

 Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

The actual section from the Act ( http://www.statutelaw.gov.uk/legResults.aspx?activeTextDocId=1038198 ) is
Quote:

28. Penalty on persons committing any of the offences herein named.Every person who in any street, to the obstruction, annoyance, or danger of the residents or passengers, commits any of the following offences, shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale for each offence, or, in the discretion of the justice before whom he is convicted, may be committed to prison, there to remain for a period not exceeding fourteen days, (that is to say,)

... (There are lots of other paragraphs)

Every person who flies any kite, or who makes or uses any slide upon ice or snow:


So you will note that (a) it is only in the street, and (b) only if it is to the "obstruction annoyance or danger" of the residents or passengers.
