muftyboy Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Anyone who is driving to france after the 29th of this month will need an idp to do so. You can pic them up from the post office for £5,50 , just need to take your licence and a passport pic and its done there and then. If you dont do it before the 29th then you will have to take a theory test and a driving test to be able to get the idp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is mate being away from the house & yard is not ideal, with the rural crime the way it is. I chased off two scumbags who had broke into are buildings gone through the cars etc a while back , luckily there were still making piles of what to take so didn't get away with anything really . Back at the yard now installing cameras which I will hopefully be able to view from anywhere. That hasn't gone to plan though lol the first hard drive I had must of been a return , but they went through the start up and set a password I couldn't get passed so had to swap it . Just hope my luck turns sat behind the rods, for the first time since August in France at the end of next week 😁 saying that though I do get the train 30 mins after brexit yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
commonly Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Life can be cruel mate. I like to say we have poo times , so we can appreciate the good/normal times. I'm on the bank next weekend, end of a 3 year ticket, which has produced a 20 odd stocky, in about 20 nights. So here's hoping for a wet net for both of us! finchey, chillfactor and ... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
