Makes a change to see the traffic moving !

Yes, number plate is just not quite legible

I've tried cross referencing with the register many possibilities, but not got a match (I.e. possible match - wrong colour)
Therefore, unless someone can read it better than I can, or admits it's them

, it might not be on the register...

Pretty sure that’s no. 66

Scroll down and you’ll find the advert (my old website from when I was GTC reg’). Iirc the seller was keeping hold of the plate, so that’ll be why it doesn’t cross reference.

The position of the GB plate seems to tie up

That, the chrome boot lettering and lack of black painted panel on boot lid lip

Looks like someone painted the wheels that were black on the advert linked above.

Yep, M25 on route to a gig that evening in Narbeth, S. Wales. That was a trek!

However, outside the Slug & Lettuce in Hanover Street, W1 has me puzzled. Clearly I would not have left it on a dble yellow in C. London, I know better than that!
What was the date? Was Regent Street Festival on that day? A Sunday in the last 2/3 years? This is less than 50yds from Regent Street, it would have been closed to traffic and I would have displayed an artists permit. Or was I in the vehicle?

And yes, I had the wheels painted....

Hi Trevor,
I was playing at Span Jazz, Plas Hyfryd.
We didn't play Dazed & Confused but I wonder if there's scope for a jazz arrangement!
