    The most vulgar numberplate in Britain arrives in SW3

     

    Yesterday, in Walton Street, a Rolls-Royce parked opposite Scalini restaurant. There was nothing unusual about that but it’s point of difference was its numberplate.

     

    The owner of the car had chosen ‘SH10W OF’ and in doing so simply illustrated his or herself for what they truly believe themselves to be.

     

    Modesty is a fine quality and plainly this nitwit is entirely lacking in it.

    Raine Spencer; Raine, Countess Spencer (AKA “Acid Raine”)

    Raine SpencerThis thrice married daughter of the novelist Dame Barbara Cartland was allegedly fathered by Prince George, Duke of Kent and has worked her way through five titles. Upwardly mobile, she’s been described as “larger than life” but was so unpopular with her step-children that they nicknamed her “Acid Raine”. During Mohamed Fayed’s ownership of Harrods, Raine Spencer was made a director and was often to be found manning the tills during sales. Her step-son, Earl Spencer, described this mother of four as having a taste in decoration that is akin to “the wedding cake vulgarity of a five-star hotel in Monaco”.

    Jackie Siegel 300Jackie SiegelHer billionaire husband, David, calls this former Miss Florida a “psycho, but a lovable psycho” and adds that she is a “big-busted shopaholic”. Her main desire in life is to be famous and a documentary film about her was made in 2012 by Lauren Greenfield. When her current neighbour, Tiger Woods, crashed his car, she ran out and took a photo. She sold it to TMZ for $400. Her husband stated: “That was very enterprising of her, but I think she could have gotten more”. Together, they have eight children and began construction of a 90,000 square foot mansion in Windermere, Florida in 2006. They named it Versailles and boast that it will be the largest single family home in America. Of the rare Brazilian mahogany from which the doors of Versailles are to be made from, she commented: “They had to stop exporting it because they were cutting down the rain forest, or whatever”. She’s all class.
