Can't See the Forest
Anton Cataldo lost a couple of paintings after he placed them on his car, forgot about them and drove off. So he put up some posters asking people if they had found them. He stapled some of the posters to trees, which earned him a £75 fine from England's Brighton and Howe City Council for causing harm to the trees. "You appear to have little understanding that trees are living things," a council official told him in an email.
