On water pistols .... In the Maryhill area of Glasgow back in the 60s when I worked there in the time of ' group disorders ' ( the then Chief Constable threatened disciplinary charges against any cop describing them as gang fights ) water pistols containing ammonia were known to be carried and used on occasion. Pull one of those out in a cafe in that area at that time & you'd be as likely to be wearing your chips ( and the boiling fat they were frying in ) as to be eating them.
