The stupidity of this,is that people are leaving the cities,to live out a little further in the peace and quiet in a rural setting,and all their BS laws are following them..No noise after 9pm,,no more than X decibels for X minutes,cant run a body shop or mechanical shop because you will upset the neighbors...BLAH BLAH BLAH...
Thebest one I heard was in Whiplashes neck of the woods,and it involved a recent ex city dweller,who didnt like the smell of the farmers cows,so they opened the gate and shooed them into the next paddock,before their flash friends turned up for barbecue and drinks....
