interesting stuff ,thanx! alltho common law can contain some mad stuff, for example acording to english common law its perfectly legal for an englishman to shoot a welshman with his longbow on a certain day of the year from the middle of the svern bridge, and on the isle of wight its obligatory for every man and boy over 14 to report to newport square to practice his longbow at least once a week alltho that will definatly get you arested these days! these laws still stand and As recently as 1986, it has been illegal to 'handle a salmon in suspicious circumstances, allso i believe there is a state in usa somewhere where it is iligal to wear fake moustaches on a sunday, comon law is fasinating and sometimes hilarious stuff but unfortunatly with no real legal weight these days unless employed by unscrupulous goverment with all the judges on thier side as the torys in uk did when cameron got in, they didnt win a majority but dug up some medieval law to suport thier cause
