    Instaed of posting silly pictures, why don't let us know where it is wrong.
    The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark

    Paid once! Not to mention the lessons, test fee etc.....That's enough!

    Totally agree,just another way to screw money out of you,cant believe people have no problem with it-do you think it'll stay at 20 quid?

    People need to get things into perspective, £20 to renew a driving licence for 10 years and people moan yet they are prepared to pay Murdoch a fortune every month to watch what is mostly rubbish.

    I still have my old one and when stopped by the police they asked why i haven't got the new one?

    I don't want the new one as I'm still happy with the old.

    I still remember the day i went for my test and my brother passed the day after with the same examiner.

    Happy memories with the old one and I'm old enough not to get asked for id when i buy a drink ;)
    I'm not poor i'm just skint

    Tell you what, why don't you tell us why you think you're right? ;)

    At the risk of sounding a bit silly, you were are the one who is saying I am wrong, ergo it is up to you show us where I am so.

    I presume by your response, you have worked out that I wasn't.
