TALK - Odd Laws

Odd laws - a talk to discover the strange laws that are still in force that we, unknowingly break all the time.

The UK has some unusual laws that are still in place today from it being illegal to carry a plank of wood along a pavement to lingering after a funeral.

Join us as Bob takes us through some of these laws as part of a fascinating talk, and find out how much we are really breaking the law in our every day lives.
