Time for a new one 
Authorities in San Francisco are trialling a new 'anti-pee' paint, designed to stop revellers urinating on walls.
Anyone choosing to use the treated walls as a toilet will see their urine "bounce back".
The paint, called Ultra-Ever Dry, creates a barrier of air in front of the surface that will "completely repel almost any liquid," according to its makers.

As the elephant in the room is "That takes the biscuit" - I can't think of anything else. I am no longer au fait with all the kinds of biscuits now available, but there's got to be something in there somewhere. And who steals that many biscuits? Biscuits aren't expensive, so there must be loads of packets in that lorry. Where will they hide them? Are they going to eat them all themselves?
