Many years ago (about 12/13) I got into a bit of bother with the BiB, which resulted in a visit to the Mags. At the time, I owned 2 cars, a 1957 Austin A35 and a Lancia Beta Coupe. I got caught using the Tax disc from the A35 in the Lancia.
As a result of this, I got banned for 3 months :eek: and fined £30.00
After the shock of the ban wore off, I completely forgot about the fine. Until the other day.
My Mrs is a childminder, and to get Registration, we both have to undergo Police checks. Imagine my surprise (& embarassment)when I was reminded of the outstanding fine by a very kind OfSted lady.
I was mortified, but Mrs TypeR, who asumed that I'd always been a law abiding guy was rather taken aback.
I seem to have got away with it all this time, however, I'd like to do the right thing and cough up and clear my good(ish) name.
What to do guys&girls?
