Now here’s a game we can all play when on a long bus or car journey…. in the UK or Britain-outside-Europe or exEurope/GB or whatever we’re calling ourselves by the time you read this….. anyhow most car licence plates have 3 letters together – and it’s possible to amuse oneself by thinking of funny phrases made up of the initial letters.

e.g. Our family all-time most excellently ludicrous phrase was KAP… which became Kippers Always Pounce.

When done competitively, with good humour, in a carful of people, the permutations grow and the laughter builds.
