It's reassuring (?) to know that they do actually have people that check 
.... while in University all students used to get leaflets annually 
saying the license detector van was in the area... but no one ever saw 
it. This does also lead onto the whole tvcard-in-computer angle, but 
I'll avoid that.

Perhaps Aberystwyth is just too far away for them to bother? I do 
remember quite a few people having TVs in their wardrobes....
