We did it on a trip down to Devon with his Mum once too which was fun. As a chid, we used to spot postboxes, etc, as someone else mentioned.

We didn't choose reg letters in those days and we always bought second hand cars so you can imagine our amusement when Dad collected our next car to find that it's reg letters were SOB!Rosalind Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05363027308436257933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872436458316103784.post-86836462790153362362014-09-15T21:40:05.491+01:002014-09-15T21:40:05.491+01:00Spot on, MJ!
