Very best wishes on your birthday Des, have a great day and may you have many more. Also noticed mine never came up on the list, but received an e-mail from the site which was nice. Cheers Ken.

Re: Birthday
Hope you had a happy birthday, Des. Margaret is due for her test in about six weeks and is saying, again, "I think I'll take the 5 km radius instead of the test". I'm due again early next year.
All the very best,
Richard

Re: Birthday
Hi Des
Why do you have to take another driving test ?
I thought you just filled out a medical deceleration every 3 years after the age of 70, then you are on your way rejoicing.
