Got to admire the OP really. He's really got the usual PH old women dropping stitches in their knitting.

This is classic:

Ok so:

Q. Why do I have my name on it?

A. It's a well kept secret up until now, but ALL military personnel have to do this. It's in Queens regulations.
That anyone could believe this? A "secret" but in the Queen's Regulations? Ha ha!

The OP is having great fun in this thread and must be looking forward to each new post.

If that's the case, the OP should try getting a hobby. Or a girlfriend. Or both.

Not only believe it, but go as far as to ask others if it may be true. smile

This is simple, if you can demonstrate either a) how it affects you, or b) how the police couldn't identify it, I'll go along with you. Plates are meant to be fun, and most people can't afford 2x2 numbers. It's was peanuts to buy and not intended to put on a car for 18 years! Jeesh.

We've obviously got a different view on what a number plate is for.

Seems so - and at its basics I totally agree with you... But this was too tempting wink

I once saw the number plate D1ANA - if my daughter Diana changed her name with that outlay I'd be pissed, if my son changed his name I'm sure I'll forsake the £300! smile

Mis-spaced plates are a pet hate of mine - because they're illegal for no discernible reason?
I get the hate for misrepresenting letters etc as but moving the spacing between the letters....why is it an issue?

ANPR will pick it up NO PROBLEM AT ALL....likewise I can read it NO PROBLEM AT ALL. Why is it an offense other than just to make some money from selling plates via the DVLA that have to be mis-spaced to justify their cost?

Yes it's illegal, but so is speeding - I bet everyone on here has and does that on a regular basis rolleyes

Oh and before some smart ass pops up, I don't have a personal plate.

Well, aside from the illegal plate.

You've set your son up for a whole school life of piss taking with that name!
Have you been drinking in the sun all afternoon and decided to come back to be some sort of keyboard tt towards someone you've never met?? Thankfully at school my son will know how to deal with people like you'd like to be, but the reality is you're a little person who takes pleasure in putting down a 20 month old baby.
Judging from that reaction I'm guessing he's not the first person to mention it.

Seriously - the only people looking bad here are the ones with bulging neck veins over a b number plate. Spitfire - seriously – chill. OP is laughing at you all as he reels you in...

That would look so much better if you squished the letters slightly closer together. But then it may become impossible to read and children might be run over by kittens and this post would be illegal.

Or something.

I couldn't care less about his number plate. It's his attitude that stinks.

Not meant to be a dig as such but I'd be worried people would shorten it to Kes (although the younger generation are unlikely to know of the film).

I think he's referring to the fact your son has the sort of name that gets shouted loudly by mums in overly stretched leggings in supermarkets.

"Keston, Keston,Keston!! Get back 'ere you little st."

That sort of thing....

That you already have a chav plate lined up....just adds fuel to fire really.

I only intended to be humorous. When people started drawing direct conclusions on my ability to be a successful dogger and soldier did I start being silly.

Dont be offended on behalf of the lunatic who actually thought you had to have your name on your plate if you're in the military - he was RAF after all. See the person, not the disability.
