Default Guess what happened next.

OK so went for a quick drive (for a test) and of course met a police car coming the other way.

My car looks like this at the moment..................







So what happened next ??

Nothing, because consistency is a word not understood by the rozzers

They stopped you and said 'Are you aware someone has stolen your bumper Sir?'

No front numberplate? So you got pulled?

You then said "Funny it was on the car when I left the house"

DON'T drive your car like that EVER!!!

I did it in my old one and after about 10 mins I got this burning plastic smell, pulled over and had a nice pair of large holes in my splash guards where the wind had pushed them against the tyres whilst driving

Good news about being let off though

****s me off that. I mean, I'm sort of glad you got away with it cos I don't want you to get pulled but they should pull you for that. Whereas you can get pulled for 92 on an empty motorway on a clear dry night.

We're off to Button Moon, we'll follow Mister Spoon, Button Moon.....Button Moooo-ooon.
