excellent, that makes 2 of us, unless mr skruntie is being economic with the truth on his profile??  :D

I put my brain age down, but still act younger than that.

Admin recenvently had me down as a 69 year old, I am in fact 50 next year and have no problems with it as it is just a number.

Am I the only driver in the UK that still has an ordinary paper licence? everyone seems to have the new style photo card  licences with paper part. Even old people that have been driving before I was born have plastic fantastic licences? Why pay good money for a plastic card when you can keep your real one... anyone else got a real one ::)

Me too :y :y :y

i still have a paper license, although its a bit worse for wear as is a doodle pad for the courts. im not keen on the idea of renewing it every 10 years at a ridiculous cost and, furthermore, once you send off for a plastic fantastic job some of the items on your original paper license maybe be 're-evaluated' and mysteriously disappear...

Still using a paper one , and as it's nicely tucked away in a plastic cover it's as good as new , only a matter of time before we're all forced to go plastic though >:( >:(

I've got both, I know someone who still has the paper one which is all in bits, he refuses to pay for a new one though.
