In many cases it is not the fault of the H & S Executive it is the way some jobsworth interprets their suggestions.

Exactly right Seaman. They used to quite like hearing of uses and abuses of H&S and the best ones were used on their 'Mythbuster' type pages. I think Bev makes a great point that humans are the most highly polluting species, look at the pavements of any city/town centre after a Fri/Sat night. Pools of vomit and urine, abandoned takeaways and fag ends. I'd rather be pooed on by a starling.
Having walked through Cardiff on Saturday night after the rugby win (sorry had to slip that one in English rugby supporter types) I would be all for discouraging large groups of certain types of people from congregating in one place!

Good point Flintaxe,that sounds like our market place on a weekend night,even the feral Pigeons and Starlings seem to move out at that time,feel sorry for those who have to clear it up on the following mornings.
