Yep, gathered that. ;) Think the police themselves have said there isn't anything wrong with people just dressing up as clowns. Intimidating and harassing though they will treat differently. Bit worrying that people are hanging round schools and following children while carrying knives. A bit...

Do I take it from these couple of comments from posters on here that although it is against the law to carry a knife in public, it is absolutely fine if they are dressed as a clown? ;)

To be fair though, you can choose to answer the door or not. You can also choose to open the door and then close it on people. Grown men in clown outfits upsetting and scaring children and following them around while carrying knives is surely a tad more worrying. Unless of course you get...

It's the harassment aspect. Some are chasing people and some are following people around and some are carrying knives. The whole idea is to frighten people and it is being done to kids especially. Think if someone is following kids carrying a knife that must warrant police intervention, surely.

I won a prize in the Today newspaper's competition. First prize was £20,000 and a luxury holiday. When I opened the letter to say I won though, it was just a satellite dish as a consolation prize.

I saw a load of them a couple of weeks back. It was at the circus though, so I decided against getting the police involved. If I had their engine would have exploded and the wheels fallen off.

I hate sarcasm.

Yep, at Kingfield Road and still there, though it has been taken over. Used to be a steel stockist, but would also supply all the tools and nits and bolts and screws to the shop in Hales Street. It was a big store.

I remember a lad I used to work with doing a Daily Mirror competition. It was a simple question and you had to phone your answer through. They then picked one random right answer out of a hat. Anyway, this guy came to me to check he had got the answer right (it was a completely obviously dumb...

I used to work there. They still have a place I think, Kingfield Road. The company has been going since about 1750. The shop was in Hales Street and the warehouse in Kingfield Road. I worked there for 3 years in the late 70's.

In Essex the police say there have been a number of incidents of people dressed as clowns hanging around outside schools during the school day. :( Cases in Scotland and Wales too. Guessing we will see an increase at Halloween for sure.

It's sweeping the globe. Think it started in the US, but is now going on over here and now Australia too. Some sick prat jumped out in front of and then followed a bunch of 11-12 yr olds to school in County Durham, carrying a knife. Hilarious. :( Merseyside police are saying they may well...

I was crazy about a girl once. First time I met her I was immediately enchanted by her, but I was going out with someone else at the time. We became very, very good friends though, but all the time I still remained crazy about her. After three years I finally got her to go out with me. We...

Yeah he is, but by the time they will have got the sheet off, Venus will have been in charge for another three games.

I remember our next door neighbours winning the Pools. It was something like £50,000, but that was a hell of a lot of money back then. Am talking about 40 years ago or more. They danced around the tables and hugged and gave out a yelp of joy, before then glancing across to find they had left...

What if they are not listed, but are reading?

It's like the gorgeous girl staring at you across the nightclub dancefloor, before you then realising 10 seconds later she is actually giving the eye to the bloke behind.

But you are then very quickly deflated again within seconds. Double whammy for me today. My parents are both 86 and my dad insists on buying lottery tickets for all the family, nieces, granddaughters and me. Sometimes he gives me the tickets, but usually he retains them himself for us all and...

Smokescreen and windbreak.

Drew 1-1 in the end, but still 2 points dropped you would say.
