    I did fillet it once cooked as it was a whole one but there seems to be an extra bone layer between the flesh in herring - maybe thats why its so cheap 60p with free garlic butter and got two meals out of it!!!

    Trust you to find the only double jointed herring in the shop :rotfl:

    beanielou - I did wonder about that - from memory (having worked for a car manufacturer many years ago), the basic car details get entered onto the computer when the car arrives in the country - from typed details provided. When sold, the dealer (or whomever) will provide the registration number and it only takes them to write down it unclearly, mis-write/type a letter or whatever and therein lies the problem. We would also end up with no registration numbers where the documentation never arrived.

    Having said that, this was back some 12 years ago and probably things have changed somewhat. Yet it seems it is still not fool proof. Glad you have got it sorted though.
