To help, or react, someone will no doubt break another law somehow.

The one that always bothers me is the £80 fine for dropping a cigarette butt
But i have a mate who lives there so have popped round his house then sat like a total plum at these lights that haven't picked up the sense that my bike is even there many times before.
Add to that, is it such a great idea to sell high explosives to the general public?

If you were near QA Hospital around November 5th it was like World War III out there
