"I hope you are aware that that piece of paper is no longer legally part of the driving license, so if you don't have the photocard license, and are driving, then you are doing so without a license, and may find yourself having a difficult conversation with the local constabulary if you get stopped at a traffic census."
Not true. Only the paper counterpart that was issued with a photo licence is now invalid. All licences issued prior to the introduction of the photo license are valid until the holder reaches the age of 70. I have to submit my licence every year for insurance checking as I drive a company car. It is accepted every time, as it is when I get a hire car when my company car is in for a service. And I'm not the only one in our company without a photo licence.
