    Instead of adding the other half what about adding your parents instead?
    Or for that matter a friend or sibling. You can add anyone you like, just try to choose someone who is close enough that you can declare their accident/conviction history accurately and provide their driving licence details of the insurer ever asks for them.

    Thanks everyone - really interesting that you can put a family member or friend on your insurance even if you don't live with them. Didn't know that!

    In the end, as time was running out (well it had run out in fact as of midnight last night!), I've kept OH on, advised them he has 5 points (all earned in one go apparently) which made it go up by £30 which I might ask him for at some point...! :P

    Really appreciate your help :)
