Re: Elf and Safely said by jvmorris: How many British residents have actually been injured during Guy Fawkes celebrations
Sadly, quite a lot every year.... 
I also have some vague memory of some poor sole being killed putting up street decor for Crimble and of course, I've no doubt several folks sustain injurys one way or another through domestic decor...
IMHO the problem is the imported littigation culture as alluded to previously in this thread. FUD (Fear Uncertainty & Doubt) has caused 'officialdom' to become 'overprotective' aka Nanny State as a consequence. All rather a shame really; its taken the fun out of life in an attempt to 'engineer' common sence... |
