There's hope yet

Passed a vehicle from a company that likes to have branded registration plates on its vehicles. Don't know if it is up there with FLR, noticed at, for example, reference 1, but in any event, it is good news. Maybe they will run to the elusive No.36. Sadly, their HQ is in Orpington, so I am unlikely to have a credible excuse to visit - visits for the purpose of checking number plates having been firmly stamped on by the rules committee.

Later on, I passed a number of plates in the thirties, forties and fifties, but not the one in question. But I did get a useful six feet length of two by one batten which will no doubt come in useful for something. Just the five nails to remove.

PS: our government seems to have picked an odd time to be flogging off a vaccine manufacturing facility near Oxford, nearing completion after a 2018 start, having spent some £200m on it. One might have thought that this was just the sort of thing we wanted to have in reserve, under our own control. The sovereignty they bang on so much about in the context of Brexit. Not something to flog off to some private equity operation, mainly funded by foreign money with little interest in our health and well being. Is one of our fat leader's mates from his Oxford days involved...
