Luckily I had new plastic licence but was still under the impression it was only valid with the old green one.
Then being told i needed my national insurance number to find out if i have points on my licence which should be checked and printed before hiring.
Well why dont you check it then NI number is. Xxx realing it off the top of my head. One number for some reason a french teacher at Hardley school managed to make stick.
So got a hire car Sunday morning down to the Waterside with very little traffic.

Wagon drivers. I was in passenger mode for our recent trip to Southampton, so I got to see more wagon wankery in detail.
Highlights include:-
- The wagon wanker that cruised right up the arse of a Daihatsu for 15 miles
- The wagon wanker that couldnāt decide which lane he wanted, middle or fast.
- The wagon wankers that overtake each other on two lane stretch of the A34, holding everyone else up.
- The wagon wankers that rumble through speed restricted areas at 60mph because their tachographs only count speed, not speeding offences.
It is not a big 10/4 from me.
Jetlag The wife not staying awake until normal bedtime so wakes up at 3:00 in the morning and wants breakfast then starts getting all domesticated and doing washing and Hoovering whilst everybody else is trying to sleep.

Landing at Bournemouth Airport with a medical emergency delaying getting off plane. Meeting mate, getting to car park and getting the phone call to say they were very impressed with me at the interview last week but are going with a younger guy who is fluent in German so I still dont have a job.
Bollocks what a kick in the teeth start to the trip

Unlucky mate. If itās any consolation, interviews get a lot easier the more you do them. Youāll get something, even if it takes you down a new path.

@Polski_Filip I does get harder as you get older regardless of what social media / MSM / legislation says.
Itās also easier to move from a job into a new one rather than not working & trying to get into a new role.
I got paid-off a few years ago and it took 10 months to land a roleā¦
Sorry, just trying to put across my experience- positives and negatives but you know youāll land on your feet soon.

Have to say I had several last year and found them harder. Finally just stopped caring and got the one I wanted. So maybe a bit too much over prep and desperate to leave the role I was in didnāt help.
Trying to get the youngest nipper a National insurance Number.
Websites telling you to phone a number so you phone the number Oh you need to dial this number sir. Dial new number and its an automated line that eventually gives you the first number you dialed.
Phone the first number again ah you need to dial this number (student loans) I do not want a student loan. We cant help you then please dial this number.
Phone new number first 5 minutes automated lines then a human. Why do you want a National insurance number?
Because I havent got one and I am British with a British Passport and 2 British parents. Oh we only deal with foreign nationals sir you need to phone this number
Dial the new number Automated line then a human. Are you lookig for a job? No I am a student. Do you need a student loan. No i dont. We cant help you then sir. Could you please tell we where I can get A national insurance number from then?
You need to go on the web site sir.
I have it told me to phone the number I dialled first.
Ah right sir you need to call XXX number and reeled of the number thats I dialed the second and third times.
So after speaking to Elllie, Nena, Sammy, Carly, Ashley, Jill, and Ryan I was no nearer to getting a number for my son.
