    The "Can You Locate a thread for me" because the search function is shit thread

    Im trying to find the "best way to send a credit card sized parcel from the UK" thread.

    Ive used the advanced search, but to no avail.

    I need my driving license shipped over.

    Cheers

    I take that back TYIM, i think thats pretty good to get it half way around the world for 3000 baht in a couple of days and its insured for 250 quid too if it gets lost

    Cheers again

    i was kinda worried about it getting into the wrong hands and loads of strife to account for, like stolen and stripped rental cars.

    Im gonna pay the 3000

    I took your advice mate, arrived today, which took 5 days and cost the princely sum of 1 pound. i think its frigging expired though. Do those cards only last 10 years ?

    do you think they will notice at the rental offiice?

    ^ no I doubt they will notice.
    and yes the photo licence is only valid for 10 yrs . also if you order a replacement you only get the years left out of ten not a new full ten yrs.

    but when the ten yrs is up if ur passport is less than 5 yrs you can request they use that picture for renewal and that allows you to do everything online.
    will not put up wiv the "Nanny state" so don't push it on me.
