I trust that the person who stole the legal documentation (they must have had at least a crescent wrench to do so) while my bike was parked at work, suffers from buboes and chancres in the most unpleasant locations and remains unresponsive to otherwise appropriate antibiotics. Good luck with the pus collections. (Actually, bad luck with the pus collections especially since you bent the attachment bracket, removing them in presumably, a hurry before you were spotted by law-abiding citizens, and a procession armed with pitchforks and torches led you to your fate; tar & feathers at the very least).
As for the council's meter maid (or whatever politically correct designation is allowed these days); thanks for nothing. At least if The Law had decided to ticket me they could have first checked with The Central Computer and found that I had both a valid Registration and Warrant Of Fitness. What you have now done is to make sure I can waste at least a couple of hours of my time trying to convince the local council that actually I am legally entitled to ride on the road.
Local government. Basically, an extortion racket...
