If you wanted to get in touch you had two choices, go and knock on their door or send them a letter through the post! Move on to more recent years and our phones are so much more than phones.

Purrfect Plates For Pet Day
It's National Pet Day! So it's time to celebrate our love of animals. If you have pets it's a day to spoil them. A nice long walk for Rover, a bit of tuna for dinner for Mr Tiddles.

From fish, birds and lizards to cats and dogs, we certainly are a nation of pet lovers. Let's take a look at some of the brilliant pet plates we've go

What's the next big thing in private plates? Well it's always hard to predict, but plates that represent important years are becoming increasingly popular. Plates with names on are always big sellers, but that's what everyone goes for. With private plates becoming cheaper in recent years, when once it was cool to spot a plate such as AO53 ZOE or J10 ROB, and know that Zoe and Rob were driving those cars, for some of us, we're just looking for something different now. This is where year pl

Number Plates could be on smartphones by 2018
Motorists could be allowed to have their number plates on smartphones by 2018, according to the government agency developing the plans.

March 24th is Red Nose Day. Red Nose Day has brought laughs and much needed cash for Comic Relief since the first one in 1988. Do you remember it?
