Ooops Mr Officer, its in the boot !
Discussion
Well after the best part part of 18 months sans a front plate on the drift beasty, upon existing Castle Coombe & Japfest I was on the lookout for the Wiltshire Speed Stazi Trolls as I trundled slowly through Tiddlywinks (yes a Village next to Castle Coombe) when a young looking traffic officer jump out in front of me & flagged me down.
OOOOoooopppps
Still with my earplugs in I calmly jumped out explaining "oooops I think I forgot somthing" to which he said "yes it appears so"
Some quick delving in the boot finds said missing plate, but no zip ties or gaffa tape at hand. Ahh bugger... just as he starts looking at his little book
At which point the bloke in the house, who's driveway I'm wedged across asks if he can get out, to which Mr Plod says "Its your luck day, stick it in the window & fix it on when you get back home, be on your way"
To which I jumped backed in & tried my hardest NOT to wheelspin the thing off the gravel driveway, with a combination of lightweight flywheel, nasty nasty twin plate clutch etc, I failed in my efforts dismally
Thank you Mr Officer
