About this listen

Have you ever wondered whether the strange and ancient law just quoted to you by someone is correct? Does it exist, did it exist, and even more interesting, is it still in statute? Surprisingly, there are quite a few ancient laws still in use and also some which are known but no longer law. In the same light, do you know which modern laws you could be inadvertently breaking? This fun and lighthearted book is a nod to the laws of the past, both obscure and sometimes daft, and those which have a greater standing in our lives today which may not be so obscure but are nonetheless relevant.

Well, this audiobook caught my eye as I remember having a mini-lecture about some of the strange laws that still exist in England and Wales. It was interesting to learn some strange Scottish laws, as Scotland has a different legal system to England and Wales. There were lots of interesting nuggets that would make interesting conversation starters. The audiobook narration was engaging and easy to listen to.

Really does make you question the wit of those that hold the power to make the laws. Wasn’t sure what to expect given it is about law, but some funny content. Had me laughing and shaking my head in disbelief a few times. I’d recommend 👍
