These are the saddest/Best personlised plates ever!!!
Discussion
I know there's a thread for silly number plates but I really think this little collection required a thread all of their own - you'll see why!
I live in Sevenoaks (Kent). It's a lovely old market town with fantastic travel links and a good family type vibe. Back in the day it was quite a mixed community - some old money and mainly "normal" people. However, over the last 25 years or so the excellent proximity to London (28mins by train) combined with a huge number of private schools it has seen an influx of young families moving out of London - think trendy urban couple living in Balham, Clapham, Wandsworth etc have kids and want to move to "the country". So, Sevenoaks has become a haven for yummy mummies (Mummy to India and George etc) and hubbies who commute and pick up some Whispering Angel from Waitrose on the way home. Their lives made complete by adding a Cockapoo.
It's become a blend of the old types in their mustard or red corduroys driving beat up old volvos or the new trendies in their bling Audis and Range Rovers and a worrying trend has set in - the need to express your pride in (brag about) where you live through your number plate. Yes, the 7 OAX number plate has become highly treasured and I've been trying to capture them while I'm out - there are a lot. Here are four for your delectation. Sad or hilarious??
The last one's a cracker and definitely the mustard chords variety
