Obviously you can buy drinks, vote, but what else? I'm sure there's so much but only those 2 come to mind for some reason:smile:

yeah apparently some guy made millions selling "human waste" to cleaning companies and other places. he'd buy it from some randomer that owned a 'poo-factory' (one of those sewage plants) and then sold it onto other places. can't remember the full ins and outs of it.

Buy all shares, not just scottish companies.
Do you have to be 18 to buy a penknife? My dad bought one for me when I was about 13... it was a really good one as well, but I've lost it. Will I get ID'd if I try to buy a new one?

Just so I don't annoy people by not contributing to the thread - in France you can get a part-time job when you're 18. Until then, you're not allowed.

Ohhh random Cheerios craving.

i don't think you do. i vaguely remember going on a brownies ( :biggrin: ) trip when i was little, and i'm sure other brownies were buying penknives. and we must have only been 7/8

edit: i'm not sure if that was legal though
