[Manxman1950]

Several of you have commented on my trimmed-down front licence plate when we have met on “cruises”, or TedFest last year, the general opinion being it would only be a matter of time before I fell foul of the local constabulary.
Well this week you were proved right, after 2.5 years thanks to Officer Attoe, who by his own admission had nothing better to do, but who at the same time clearly felt my offence ranked only slightly below that of Jack the Ripper and wrote me a ticket for $110.....
Oh well, time for some new plates. Any recommendations on how best to attach them? I used magnets on my Lotus Elise, but maybe I’ll just have to bite the bullet and drill the front bumper😱
At least I had the slight satisfaction of extending to PC Attoe my hope that he would be able to find something more useful to do during the remainder of his shift.
