Im greedy so I kept it hoping Phil Meeson or Steve Heapy might want it. Anyone friends with them ?

Someone at a local flying club fitted his Jag with the “almost, but not quite” plate D1 LOT. He put in a black nylon attachment bolt below the “D”, so that it almost looked like a “P”.
Unknown to him, someone at the club got out a roll of black tape...when he drove off the rear plate had been changed to read “P1LOCK”.

Sitting in the crew room reading Exchange and Mart around 1974 I saw 111 ACE advertised for £100 (on a moped, as I think you had to actually buy the vehicle at that time). I did think of buying it and then ringing 111 up (at Wattisham I think) and seeing what offers I could get, but of course I never did. I wonder where that one ended up.

No aviation connection, but I sold my fully serviceable moped with LCH231 years ago for £15. It was later fitted to a VW Beetle and now resides on a SAAB 9-3. I’ve often wondered how much it changed hands for.
