By the way people thinking a male working a washer lol

Nothing wrong with that. I've been doing my own washing since the age of about 8.

My mother said if I couldn't be bothered to put my laundry in the basket, she couldn't be bothered to go hunting all over my room for it. 

I have a lot to thank her for :)

It's not the 70's any more...men can use washing machines now, I didn't think it odd at all when I read your post lol.  I've also been doing my own washing since the start of high school...  Meant I always had stuff clean and dry when I needed it and avoided any confrontation when I had to leave my PE kit at school to avoid missing the bus home.  Can't stand confrontation so would do anything to avoid it lol!  :unsure:

Nothing wrong with domestic chores.
Only thing I hate doing is dusting.
I do all the vacuuming due to having 2 dogs that shed hair all over the place.
Wife hasn't washed a dish in years [emoji848].

I hate dusting all the high gloss plastics that will be very '2010s' in a few years time.  They seem to scratch so easily, even with an extra soft microfiber, it's the same with the Sony headunit in the mk3 Focus.  Lots of tiny scratches that look awful in the sun!

And don't get me started on the static glass TV stand...  Literally watch it suck all the dust back as the duster runs across it! :laugh:  I tend to cheat now and use the hoover brush to take the worst off and store it before finishing with a duster.

Hm. If anything like my wife then you could start to polish your nails too to acquire the apparently perfect excuse....

I bought a dishwasher and she keeps "forgetting" how to use it.
I keep trying to "forget" how to use the washing machine but it hasn't worked yet [emoji57]
Most of my washing is uniform that tends to get very muddy and stinks of wet dogs so fair do's I suppose.

I have man flu.

It's probably terminal...but apparently it's "just a cold" and I'll "be fine in a few days" 

I should also "shut up, quit bitching and take a dose of man the chuff up!"

It was indeed.  She did make a brew, so I can't complain too much

These things in life come to test your strength in life and im only one in many out there to be a full time carer and do all house stuff etc.as well as my stuff which is

in the house as good as 24/7.

Well new day and always something different goes on so check front end on the car and get new part for washer.

P.S ...............would not change a thing in the caring side as got to be one of the best things out looking back what you done/helped your parents.

Man flu is a myth.
It's actually Manthrax.

Sounds like you all need a large dose of manesthetic!

Other half has received a NIP...doing 35 in 30.

1 teeny little problem...she wasn't in North Wales at the time...and in fact hasn't been to North Wales in years.

The car wasn't there either.

The office that deals with speeding tickets shuts at 1230.

It would be interesting to see the photo. 

I'm curious as to whether a) is it even a black CMAX and b) is it sticker bombed.

The letter just states the reg and "Ford"

Sounds like a clear case of cloning.
I would gather as much proof that the vehicle was nowhere near the location e.g, till receipts, work rosters, car park tickets, etc.
Contact DVLA to advise them of a suspected cloning (they may issue a new registration in some cases) and the force that issued the nip plus your local force to ensure that the situation is documented.
I would also recommend that you ask for any log numbers attached to your reports for ease of further reference.

We're trying to find as much evidence as we can.  Luckily (hopefully), Clare's car is quite unique - she sticker-bombed the front end shortly after getting it last year.  I have photos of her applying them.

It's a private plate, so hopefully we can keep it!  But yes, we will be on the phone to North Wales Police, Humberside Police and DVLA - probably all day tomorrow...

I don't suppose there is a dashcam fitted to the car?
Metadata could be extracted as proof of time/date of footage plus images of the car's location (road signs, prominent features etc..)on the day in question?

Unfortunately not...there is in my car!

It's a long shot, but neighbour across the road has CCTV that might show Clare's car on the road outside of the house.  But I think it was on the drive, and I think we used my car...which...I'm gonna check the footage on my camera...

EDIT: Overwritten, and the date format is out for some reason
