Apparently the Queen of England owns all of the wild swans in England. The randomness of this almost useless fact of information tickles my fancy. :choc:

What non physical contact related thing tickles your fancy?

I don't know what this thread is asking me so I will simply state that I really enjoy onion bagels.

In England every male over the age of 14 is legally meant to go to his local parish (church) and participate in a 4 hour Archery lesson every Saturday. This law has never been rescinded though it is now considered obsolete and not enforced. I still want to go to church on a saturday with a yew longbow and say "well I'm here for my archery lesson" and see the guy faint!

1. The head of any dead whale found on the British coast is legally the property of the King; the tail, on the other hand, belongs to the Queen – in case she needs the bones for her corset.

2. In London, it is illegal to flag down a taxi if you have the plague.

3. In Chester, Welshmen are banned from entering the city before sunrise and from staying after sunset. (this is actually a good idea)

4. In Lancashire, England, no person is permitted after being asked to stop by a constable on the seashore to incite a dog to bark.

5. Under the UK’s Tax Avoidance Schemes Regulations 2006, it is illegal not to tell the taxman anything you don’t want him to know, though you don’t have to tell him anything you don’t mind him knowing.

6. It is an act of treason to place a postage stamp bearing the British monarch upside down.

7. It is illegal to die in the Houses of Parliament.
