Cornish pasty company
I saw a lorry delivering at Victoria yesterday to the Cornish Pasty
Co. The lorry reg began GN09. Now, I don't really care, because I really like those pasties, but is GN a west country plate? |

Offramp gurgled happily, sounding much like they
were saying: I saw a lorry delivering at Victoria yesterday to the Cornish Pasty Co. The lorry reg began GN09. Now, I don't really care, because I really like those pasties, but is GN a west country plate? G's the mnemonic for Garden of England. Kent, Sussex, Hants. Doesn't mean the wagon's not based in the West Country, though. It's just a rough area that the dealer who originally supplied it were located, based on which DVLA local office they use. |

Wait - you mean the pasties at Victoria might be smuggled? tom -- We are going to have to be speculative, but there is good and bad speculation, and this is not an unparalleled activity in science. [...] Those scientists who have no taste for this sort of speculative enterprise will just have to stay in the trenches and do without it, while the rest of us risk embarrassing mistakes and have a lot of fun. -- Daniel Dennett |

Now, I don't really care, because I really like those pasties, but is GN a west country plate? If you mean the West Cornwall Pasty Co, I think they're a national chain these days.

Though HW is allocated to the Isle of Wight. What I wrote doesn't logically mean 'all registrations which start with 'H' are Hants though. I was just pointing out that Hants is H, not G as the earlier poster thought... Paul S |
