It's pretty lax, but who'd really want to get into a local council office? Some days I hardly want to go in... :p

I don't know of many who would, DI. There's nothing to steal and squatting in a council house would be more desirable than to invade the office.


We don't even have council houses. They've all been sold to housing associations. Can't have the state doing things that the free market can fuck up :p
Are these "human rights" in the room with us right now?

Also there was that one time where you legitimately had to hope you only died over lava so that your game didn't crash because of the XP overload.

I remember a survival world I had, house by a ravine. Saw some iron in the wall of the ravine - goody! - stupidly set off with all my stuff, not just pickaxe and extra dirt blocks, forgetting what would happen if I fell. Needless to say I did fall, and all my items were left at the bottom. I had to do some mountain-goat type climbing to pick everything up and drop it off; fell again, lost stuff again, repeat three more times.

Getting pushed into lava in the nether by freak Wither Skeleton accidents is not fun. It's why I always carry a spare fire resistance potion once I've unlocked brewing.

So what's with the council offices still existing then? A relic of a distant past?

That friendly Creeper gave you something to do, because it was not as if you were doing anything fruitful with your time.
