Banana Hammocks Strongly Discouraged

Newquay (that's "NEW-key," not "new-kway"), a shore town in England, has had a reputation of rowdiness and "anti-social behavior," where bros and yobs and bachelor parties overrun the beach and cause trouble. But the troubles have sharply declined, and one of the contributing factors, the local officials say, is a ban on mankinis, the bathing suits like Borat wore. Seriously. I'm guessing that it went the other way -- crackdowns on teen drinking and asshole bachelor party dudes led to fewer idiots dressing up in wacky clothing for a laugh -- but whatever they did worked, they say, so fine, let's credit the mankini ban.
