I thought I could provide you gentlemen with a nice laugh on this wednesday afternoon!
Got stopped by the police at a check point at approx 1100hrs this morning. Then some gorgeous lady in a high vis. vest walks over to me and says "You got tax on your bike?" Immediately I..panic and then spill my guts, so to speak.
Bike clamped, £160 fine, £100 to release, £28 quid a day storage (on the other side of the country; the bike probably wouldn't even be able to make the trip back, so I'll have to pay £60 to get a van man at work to get it for me.)
I do get £100 back if I pay it tomorrow.
Lesson: Pay my £33 a year excise duty.
