Well that made me look at "the Act for everywhere else" and I find it matches:


Fitness of hackney carriages and private hire vehicles.

26. Any authorised officer or any constable shall have power at all reasonable times to inspect, for the purpose of ascertaining its fitness, any hackney carriage or private hire vehicle, licensed by the Council, or any taximeter affixed to such a vehicle, and if he is not satisfied as to the fitness of the hackney carriage or private hire vehicle or as to the accuracy of its taximeter he may by notice in writing require the proprietor of the hackney carriage or private hire vehicle to make it or its taximeter available for further inspection at such reasonable time and place as may be specified in the notice and suspend the vehicle licence until such time as such authorised officer or constable is so satisfied:
Provided that, if the authorised officer or constable is not so satisfied before the expiration of a period of two months, the said licence shall, by virtue of this section, be deemed to have been revoked and subsections (2) and (3) of section 18 (Suspension and revocation of vehicle licences) of this Act shall apply with any necessary modifications.


I wonder what "awww" means though, care to elucidate?

my +6 year old Mondeo PH is now on 3 tests a year (1 of £180 then 2 at £75) so its now NOT too old then?....

Quote:
Hypocrisy is the state of pretending to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that one does not actually have.

Hypocrisy involves the deception of others and is thus a kind of lie.

Hypocrisy is not simply failing to practice those virtues that one preaches.

Samuel Johnson made this point when he wrote about the misuse of the charge of "hypocrisy" in Rambler No. 14:
Nothing is more unjust, however common, than to charge with hypocrisy him that expresses zeal for those virtues which he neglects to practice; since he may be sincerely convinced of the advantages of conquering his passions, without having yet obtained the victory, as a man may be confident of the advantages of a voyage, or a journey, without having courage or industry to undertake it, and may honestly recommend to others, those attempts which he neglects himself.

'Awww' isn't quite as good as getting 'Awwwwwwwww' but then again it depends on the situation of the 'Awww' in the first place.
