Smelly walls keep vandals at bay

[angelophile]

"EDINBURGH Castle is to be smeared with rancid milk and mouldy orange peel to drive away vandals.

Officials are daubing the walls of the castle with a foul formula made of sour milk, orange peel, soya beans and corn to drive away graffiti artists. The fruit and veg-based repellent stops paint from fixing to the walls, without damaging the ancient stones."

I would have thought a bunch of inebriated Scotsmen pissing up against the walls would have had the same effect meself.
