Bloody forms!

Post by Digit »

I hate 'em!
I reach my three score and ten this year, fingers crossed, so our beloved masters have decided in their wisdom that I cannot be trusted to decide whether I'm upto driving still or not.
This morning Postman Pat drops a thick envelope off for me. Application for licence renewal, all four pages, accompanied by a 15 page booklet on how to fill the damn thing in!
My heart sank, I know from bitter experience that this is gonna get complicated!
You have to prove your identity, but in addition to a birth certificate, (haven't got one) one other form of ID required.
ID card, haven't got one.
Photocopy of benefit book, haven't got one.
Original letter for benefit claim, haven't got one.
P45, haven't got one.
P60 or pay slip, haven't got one.
Marriage certificate, haven't got one.
Student union card or school record, haven't got one.
Recent bank statement, haven't got one.
Official letter granting me a state pension, I haven't bloody got one!
Anyone wanna bet that to get a copy of my birth certificate I will have to prove my identity,
ID card, haven't got one.
Photocopy etc etc etc.
I wonder if they'll accept my driver's licence?
