I've renewed my driving licence tonight as it is due to expire soon (£14 the thieves ), however.........
The picture they will be putting onto my new licence will be the same one used on my passport, (they take it from there - I didn't send them pics).
The image on the passport is already over 16 years old.
I had renewed my passport without renewing the photograph as I had not significantly changed my appearance in the previous 10 years , (one doesn't have to bother with counter-signatories that way ).
Therefore, by the time my driving licence requires renewing again, I'll be 26 years older than the image.
Any conversation with traffic plod could be interesting/entertaining given a possible 25+ year discrepancy between the driver and the photograph .............Via our democratically elected government we pay these empty-headed knobs good money - where's the joined-up thinking FFS???
Best wishes to all my readers
