Ah! The wonerful NVQ which meant that the Government paid 40% of the cost of my licence revalidation, now stopped by Gordon. Now, at over 60, the only help I get from the government is an annual contribution towards the cost of fuel to the tune of £200. (at least that's what I tell Mrs P the Fuel Benefit is for):D
