I could kick myself!

I reversed my car too close to another car parked close to my house, caught its numberplate under the edge of my car's bumper and promptly ripped the numberplate half off. Damn! So now I'm going to have to replace it, which will involve time and money that I have better uses for. Not to mention phoning the Licensing Office - usually a nightmare - and trying to find out how it's done. Blah! I was in a hurry and just wasn't careful enough - and that makes me so cross. :(

ETA: It was the other car's numberplate that got ripped off - I'm not sure that was clear. But since it was entirely my fault, I don't feel I can say no to the owner's request that I find out about getting it replaced. I'm expecting a nightmare of red tape, queues and delays. ::kicks self hard::
