    The long arm of the law just got more common.
  • I've never seen a Constable with 10 arms. 
    I saw one with three heads once. He said "allo, allo, allo".

    It's patently obvious that they don't teach English at your school. :D

    My English is fine thanks. Your conclusion though appears to be a random thought.

    Just to give an update I contacted my local council and although one of the criteria for reporting an abandoned vehicle was stated as being “not road worthy” they’ve just replied back with it’s got tax and MOT so they won’t do anything. 

    Looks like I’m stuck with it until next year when the MOT runs out!
  • I'm surprised that a scrappie has not  made an error and towed it.
    I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.

    If that's the case - pop a bit of soil in the recesses and plant some bulbs - should look pretty when it comes to the Spring. (There must be an owner who is going through insurance though I would imagine - so you'd think they'd want it towed to a secure storage yard - have you run a stolen ID check on it?)
