I remember a "top tip" in viz years ago that went something along the lines of, convince your bank manager that you are actually a time lord by using the cheques from your cheque book in a random sequence !

Default viz top tips

- avoid parking tickets by leaving your windscreen wipers turned to 'fast wipe' whenever you leave your car parked illegally.

- save petrol by pushing your car to your destination. invariably passers-by will think you've broken down and help.
