[on the way into bath on saturday morning]
alicey: what's a vehicle inspectorate checkpoint?
mattgreen: it's a weighbridge
alicey: is that where you drive your lorry on and go, "oh sorry, i weighed it when it was empty and i've just put 900 barrels of oil on it".
mattgreen: and then they go, "yeah, that's fine, rip, SLAP!"
(mattgreen mimes tearing a piece of paper from a notepad and then slaps his hand on the dashboard)
alicey: (looking at the piece of dashboard matt has just slapped) what's slap?
mattgreen: that's them slapping you with a £1000 on-the-spot fine.
