This isn't going to be too difficult after all. However I'm skeptical that a letter from Borat is going to influence the constabulary much.
if we didn't post jokes, this would be a baron thread.

We were only in Cambridge for one night in 2006 so we didn't get much pubbing done. We went to the Baron of Beef, the Eagle (Watson and Crick connection), Globe Ale House, and the Prince Regent.

Only four pubs in one night? I'm truly disappointed in you. Typical flipping amateur.

In 2002 we did fifteen in one afternoon and night in Nottingham. Two days later a dozen in Chester. All a matter of pacing.

So you're a semi-pro. Still not impressed.

Looks like Burnaby is going to have to drink half of England under the table before he gets any respect.

Fifteen in one day is even less impressive than rumpelstilzchen makes out. British cask ales are so low in alcohol that the limiting factors are internal volume and flow-through, not inebriation.

Thinking back to my time spent in Cambridge I remember we used to travel out to a pub in the village of Whittlesford. The Tickell Arms was owned and run by a real live squire. Not an actual baron but a squire with a very impressive name: Squire Kim Joseph Hollick de la Taste Tickell. He certainly was a character. Always dressed in knee breeches and a monocle and did not suffer fools gladly:

And this would be a challenge to him why?

And now back to our regularly scheduled fantasy.

The ignorance, of English history if nothing else and we won't even go in to the law, involved in this is positively staggering.

It is more than obvious that these imbeciles don't know what a Baron was or what it meant or what their societal standing was, or what the clause in the MC was referring to, and they certainly have no idea of "lawful rebellion" means or meant. All in all THEY AIN'T IT. Most if NOT ALL of the MC would not have referred to or implied them, except possibly as property. Ignorant imbeciles!!!!!

I've never understood the whole sovcit obsession with the magma carta. Sure, it gave a couple of things to the common man - trial by your peers for example.
However , the other 99.9% was purely to protect the vested interests of a bunch of loaded landlords pissed off with John's appalling innings in France.Exactly the sort of garbage they profess to hate.

Not to mention that the original MC was invalidated soon after its signing; and if I recall correctly only parts of two provisions -- not #61 -- have any colorable validity today.

Aren't ignorance and illiteracy wonderful things? I'm not even sure that trial by jury thing would even have applied to them. I may be wrong, but at the time, at law, unless you were of the nobility or rich merchant class you got pretty short shrift in the law. These sovcit types wouldn't have even been a blip on the radar at the time. The most they might hope for would be a Court Baron, maybe ecclesiastical court or Manorial court, and those were short and sweet. The MC applied mainly/mostly to the nobility and church.

Indeed. For the average punter, they would of got more benefit from it had they used it as toilet paper. Not that they even had a toilet of course.
