Old useless phone numbers and license plates you can remember

[Albion my Albion]

MOO 773 It was an utter embarrassment.

No joke!

 

[Philbag70]

I can just about remember my plate from my Suzuki RG125 gamma E568 YJK c. 1988
Also HAP 240V which was the number plate of a bright orange Allegro hatchback of a girl i really fancied c. 1990

 

[Bladders]

The only plate I can remember is from my old Capri 2.8i, ACD 272Y

It was almost ACDC so good enough for me.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

First Beetle, hard plastic seats, metal steering wheel your hands froze to, virtually no front lights, less heating, mind you the seats you could clean off chicken and sweetcorn soup easily, I seem to remember......bet your Rover was posh!

My first car, also a Beetle, FPN109L. Replacement was a Rover 3500S, PJA695R.

It doesnt really count but I had to dial in to various insurance brokers to update their modem connection strings back in 2001 when updating to Multitech 56k ones from baud 1200. Had to do about a 1000 sites
AT&FM0+ms=11&s1x3S95=3so=0
And an old BT Engineer test number to get free calls on charge card which we had some fun with 456454970007 then dial the number you want free calls on (0898 lalala). It seemed to have a 3k daily limit on though which we used up for 3 or 4 months from a payphone in a cupboard at school then weirdly is stopped working

Cant remember my own mobile number now

 

[FamilyGuy]

My mums old co-op number: 567639

My dad had a Hillman Minx reg no SJD 3 - that'd be worth a few quid nowadays to somebody with nothing better to do than buy a personalised number plate.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Can't remember any of mine.

But there's a woman who always drove around Hurstpierpoint with the number plate POO 32. Probably still does, assuming she's still alive: she's swapped it on to various cars over the years.

When we were kids, that NEVER stopped being funny.

 

[gregbrighton]

Anyone liked ringing 'Dial a Disc'?

 

[SouthCoastOwl]

OAP 679M - Vauxhall Viva estate 2.3SL

CFN 642W - Mini City 1000

No idea why I can remember these two when I can't remember anything before or since.

 

[The Wookiee]

If I remember doesn't the AP in a number plate indicate the car was initially registered in Brighton ?

 

[SouthCoastOwl]

If I remember doesn't the AP in a number plate indicate the car was initially registered in Brighton ?

It was definitely a Sussex code, not sure it was specifically Brighton.
