As anyone who knows anything about him will be aware, city living is not for him but a combination of Hobson's choice and a flare of his Crohns have made it necessary 'for a while'. But he can't take the cats. A short sentence which speaks volumes about how tough…
I've just had a letter to say I need to renew my photocard driving licence. I don't like doing things online and in any case don't have a valid passport so that isn't an option, so didn't have any problem with the idea of paying a small fee to get it done at the Post Office.
