Number plates

June 30th, 2006 · Posted by Skuds in Life · 2 Comments · Life

Yesterday evening I was driving behind a large, black, shiny 4×4 which had the number plate ORG454M.

Brilliant.

Almost certainly illegal, as all the spaces were removed, but still brilliant.

Down in Australia you can have anything you want on your licence plates (subject to obscenity laws) and the best one I saw was a license plate that just said JAGUAR… on a really old, pale blue VW Beetle.

While I feel that our own approach to license plates is pathetically uptight, I guess there is a much bigger sense of achievement when you manage to subvert the standard mixture of letters and numbers into a word.
