100 and 1 uses for an ASBO

Britain, it seems, is in love with issuing ASBOs to people to stop them engaging in antisocial behaviour. The BBC has a list of ASBOs and threatened ASBOs.

My favourite is the Scotsman who has been banned from Tesco garages for sniffing petrol fumes and dancing around the forecourt.

Brian Taylor, 36, terrorised staff and customers after cutting pipes, sniffing petrol and dancing unnervingly. His habit of slashing hoses didn't particularly help his case after customers ended up soaked in fuel.

Dances unnervingly … what on earth could that be?
