Amusing car registration numbers

Regular readers of the Charles Fudgemuffin blog will know that I generally like to cover silly and light-hearted subjects. You may therefore be surprised to learn that this week I plan to take a look at car registration numbers.

Admittedly, at first glance, car registration numbers may appear to be not at all silly and in fact quite a sensible subject. However, all of this week's car registration numbers have a silly theme to them!

1) Good boy!

This dog is so well trained that it even does what the car tells him...

1EARUP

"One ear up. Good boy!"

2) What's my age again?

Let's follow that up with a typical question that a son might ask his dad.

"How old are you, dad?"

AM54 SON

"I'm 54, son."

3) They did the math(s)

This next car could certainly do with a clean. However, the dirt did provide someone with an opportunity to demonstrate that they did the math/maths*.

* Delete as appropriate based on whether you're American or British.

907 X 815

907 x 815 = 739,205

Just off the top of my head, I can confirm that the sum is indeed correct.

4) Where are you from?

Some cars display national flags to tell you where they're from. However, this car went one step further and inquired as to my own nationality.

RU IRISH

"Are you Irish?"

To answer the car's question, no, I'm English. However, I have a Geordie* accent and several backpackers I've met on my travels have mistaken my accent for Irish, so it's an understandable mistake to make.

* Explanation for people who are unfamiliar with the regions of England: People who come from Newcastle are known as Geordies and we speak with a Geordie accent.

5) Keeping the conversation going

To respond to the above car's question with a question of my own...

YDOUASK

"Why do you ask?"

They're probably asking because they misplaced my accent.

6) Short of funds

How much have I got in my bank account?

LOL 7P

"LOL. 7p!" *

* For the benefit of non-British people, one British pound is divided into 100 pence. One pence is usually shortened to 1p, so if I had seven pence in my bank account, or £0.07, then this would be written as 7p. Please note, I actually have more than that in my bank account. This was a misleading claim for the purposes of making a silly car number plate related joke.

7) Argumentative Scottish car

This Scottish car is having an argument with itself.

W1 SNY

"Wisnae!"
"Aye, it wis!"

Translation: For the benefit of non-Scottish people, 'wisnae' is a Scottish way of saying, "It was not."
And for the benefit of non-Scottish people with poor extrapolatory deductive skills, "Aye it wis," is the Scottish way of saying, "Yes it was."

Editor's note: "Charles, your readers are really clever. You don't have to keep explaining eveything to them!"
Charles: "Fair point. I won't explain anything from now on."

8) No explanation necessary

Finally, this last hilarious registration number brought a chuckle to my face, and I'm sure it will to yours too.

FR PP 870

Editor's note: "Sorry, I don't get that one, Charles. Could you explain it to me?"
Charles: "No, as you pointed out, there's no need to explain every number plate because my readers are extremely clever, so I'm sure they'll immediately understand it. I made a promise not to provide any more explanations, and I'm keeping my promise."
