Number plates

What's Hot
HAL9000HAL9000 Frets: 9107
Was overtaken by a black Merc on the M4 yesterday, number plate P90 AXE. Even though I don't like calling my guitar an axe I thought it was a pretty cool plate. Then today I saw TH15 ROX on a Beemer.

Just looking out for LE5 9AUL now.
I play guitar because I enjoy it rather than because I’m any good at it

    I had a mini which was PRN89P

    Which wasn't impressive until I changed my name to match

    I saw a Land Rover once with M253 MPH.

    It had the square type number plate that you sometimes see.  So it was spaced:

    M25
    3MPH

    I used to see a 4x4 round where I lived, R50 ULS

    The owner had modified the plate to
    RSOULS.

    While we're on the subject, if you want new plates without all the malarky that goes with it, then have a look online for myshowplates.com. You can order them off the web and have whatever you want on them. I did that for mine, really good service, and none of this taking in your V5 bollocks.

    I know the person with that number plate!  He knows rather a lot about guitars and writes for a Well Known Guitar Magazine.

    Excellent - tell him not to cut in quite so close next time he overtakes me.

    The woman with the PEN15 numberplate lived round the corner from me .. the five was stylised to look like an 's' .. wouldn't get away with it these days.

    Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!

    One of the owners of The Daily Planet - it's a brothel in Melbourne, had the personalised number plate W4NK on her car, the car was a beauty, it was either a 56 or 57 Chevy in both matte black and high gloss black, and the person who owned and drove the car was a blonde bombshell - great tits and arse.....  We both used the same car wash up in Reservoir in Melbourne, I used to bump into her often in the coffee shop the car wash had, and she is loaded worth an absolute fortune, and she had spent some serious money on the car, shaved doors, huge throaty beefy engine, lowered, very very nice wheels the works.  It was the perfect number plate for her line of work really.

    Does he only drive at 40 or 50 miles an hour? Or only fill up on 4 star petrol?

    When I worked in the DVLA in the 80’s/90’s I was dating a woman who worked in the “Cherished Marks” department (i.e. the personalised plates dept).  As the computer had no concept of offensive words, especially when constructed from numbers as well, they had to input a list of reg marks not to be issued.  They would think of all the rude / offensive combinations they could and note them in a book.  It had the title “Skid Marks”.  
    Humans are destructive parasites that will destroy the celestial oasis of Earth.  The sooner Homo Sapiens are extinct, the better.
