To chuckle when I met a family with matching personalised number plates!

I certainly raised an eyebrow, and stifled an inner chuckle when I met this family...

OK so Mum, Dad, 20-something Son and Daughter have a car each, so 4 cars with 4 personalised number plates.

Say Mum is called Emma Sophie Lanchester, her number plate is:
FAM4 ESL

Say Dad is called Humphrey Charles Lanchester, his number plate is:
FAM4 HCL

Obviously these are not the real names and number plates but you get the idea! They all start with the same four letters, and end with the drivers initials.

Of course the parents have matching Range Rovers, and the two kids have an Audi each!

At first I was Hmm, but then I was Grin at the things some people will waste their money on! AIBU?

No lol. I chuckled too when I met my husband's family. FIL, BIL and DH all have matching plates. Bit sad really Grin just goes to show that boys never grow out of their toys!

That's good to know Sparkling, I wonder why they appeal so much in that area?

Sparklingbrook, they'd be plenty of threads on mn about things that actually affect the lives of the people posting. Joe blogs having a pp on his '88 metro affects nobody anywhere!

Maybe not but MN is the place of opinions about things that affect no-one hopping. I had a Metro in 1989, no PP on it though. Sad Grin

True, I guess I just think it's an odd thing to have a strong opinion about.
Metro's were cool, manual choke? My 1st car and second had a manual choke
