Randomness

I don't think this belongs here but I don't know where else to put it.

This bit; fair enough with the wrongly spaced ones, I feel a bit sorry for the people with otherwise legal spacing/font/etc.

I saw that on Twitter. I was a bit surprised at the assertion that these plates have never been tested; have a look at Tennants' website:

There's clearly a distinction between 'gel' and Tennants' 3D letters, though I'm not sure what Tennants' are made of and they look pretty similar. I doubt a police constable can easily distinguish between gel and other plastic.

I wonder if Tennants' are made of the same stuff as the old ones that were on metal backing plates, so the material/height is already approved?


The second part of my original post related to punishment fitting the crime and comparing the £100 fine for the number plates to this https://www.kentonline.co.uk/sheerness/ ... on-261141/

I wish the gel plate wankers had to re-sit their driving tests as punishment too.

Does seem lenient.

I hope the r.i.p. Green Cross Code doesn't put of parents round these parts, there's been much improvement over the last couple/few years, it's made life easier and more pleasant. It must be all them foreigners, comin' over 'ere with their walking and good manners

This was my favourite reply to Lozza:

You seen that he's caught it now, and is taking Ivermectin? His immune system will be too busy dealing with that nonsense

[Gwaredd]

I've just seen that too. What an utter cunt.

[Jobbo]

Quite funny though.

James Blunt really is a national treasure.

Background - in case you aren't aware - is that artists are threatening to remove their work from Spotify if Spotify don't remove Joe Rogan, because he's a misinformation spouting gobshite (I'm paraphrasing). Blunt has the real threat though.
