Default That's my day ruined...

I'd planned a nice run out to the lakes today. Through the Dales to Windermere, Kirkstone Pass, Penrith, Alston and down Teesdale to Barnard Castle and home.
I pulled in at Aysgarth for some petrol and noticed the indicator light on the panel flashing double quickly. Had a quick look and neither of the rears were working. I checked the connections and wiggled things around a bit; got one going but not the left hand one. Opened it up and the bulb was blown. Really helpful guy at the garage gave me a replacement car one which flashed at double speed but at least worked ...... Something didn't look quite right at the back of the bike though....
Oh yeah, I used to have a number plate there??
God knows where it went but I thought with dodgy indicators and no number plate, it'd be sensible to cut my losses.
At least I didn't have to worry about speed cameras on the way home.
