Let me guess. Er, it won't work. Plod would need to be extremely thick not to _not_ notice.

Read it again. The idea is that in circumstances where the plate is all they have to go on, like a gatso for example, there's a chance that whoever's checking the pic will think "oh, foreign bike" and discard it. If you're actually challenged face-to-face by the plod, then you pull the "plate fell off in France" cover story. It isn't that you don't expect them not to not notice - you're never too thick to be a policeman.

Oh, indeed, indeed, but his self-pity, and his conviction that he is indeed in the bin, is such that there's more mileage to be had in *not* k/filing him and simply ignoring him. Because he gets uptight about it (see above). It's a new technique of annoying a Usenet pest, and IMHO, it's working rather well.

Ooooh, I don't know. I shall spend a happy evening measuring them all, cataloguing them, and arranging them in order of length.

The word 'levrette' (which is in fact the feminine of 'levrier') in fact comes from the word for 'hare' ('lièvre'), as those dogs were in fact bred to chase hares. D.
