Local bye-laws...As a teenager I was on a school exchange programme so I had a kid from France staying with me and the folks over summer. One weekend I took him to the local town to show him around, and the poor kid desperately needed to piss, so I managed to convince him that there was a local bye-law that you could ask any policeman on the streets for his hat to pee into if you got caught short. And so he asked one of the coppers, who laughed. A lot. He didn't believe anything else I said for the rest of the summer while he was over. Weird that...
