The media have been having fun with the policeman from Caerphilly who told a shopkeeper that it was illegal for him to sell bongs, & read him the letter of the law to prove it.
The police had to issue a formal apology to the shopkeeper after it was discovered that the policeman had failed to notice that he was quoting from an Act, which he took from Google, which applied to the Australian [New] South Wales, not the old [UK]one.
It actually took me several minutes hard work to track down the version of the NSW Drug Misuse & Trafficking Act 1985, amended to take account of the kind of ice pipe or water pipe which is a device known as a bong.
But then I am a total innocent in such matters.
