    I thought I might do a click & collect so would you not recommend ordering 10 at once?

    Four weeks on Thursday. ......... I don't think I can wait that long :rotfl:

    I have not done a CIC for years.... since they were giving us lots of things for free.... you could do 10.

    4 weeks will go quickly...better finish knitting!

    The national insurance number is for the insurance company to check that you have no penalty points on your licence. They needed it when we did my sons. Some insurance companies will accept a screenshot of the page they need, which you could do and send to DS via email if you didn't want to give him your national insurance number.
    Check out this page

    Hope that helps.x

    thanks for this.
    It sounds about right. He also asked us a bit later for the year we passed our driving tests. I am still a bit confused though as somewhere along the line he changed his van (3rd vehicle change in less than 6 months) - somewhere between October and December. So why is he changing his insurer now only 3 or so months later.
    That might have been why he was asking us for a scan of our driving lisense cards but that was early November - we didnt pick the message up until we were in Cadiz so he had to wait 2 weeks until we got home as neither of us carry them about. A bit of a cheek as well, just assumed that it would be Ok, not even enough manners to politley ask if we would mind being added as 2nd or 3rd named drivers onto his car insurance.
    This is what he does, ignores us for weeks, months even until he wants something. Ive had one conversation with him via messanger since Christmas and again it was the prelude to him asking me to do something.

    Ive started ranting again so everyone tell me to take a deep breath. We have just had a really nice day out despite annoyance from Errant son ....

    Talking of driving licences,I've just had a reminder that mine is due for renewal in a couple of months.
    Has made me realise how old I am:rotfl:

    oh dear ....

    watching Martin Lewis prog earlier in the week made me go and check the expury dates on our E111 cards (I still call them that )
    Ive got to dig out my photo driving liscense as well to see what the date is on it - Oh still has the old fashioned paper version

    You just have to go by the mantra that you alone are in charge of your own happiness and to not let other people rile you up :D

    I think we have had 3 nice days in a row, nothing spectacular or exciting, just good calm days
