Its all official and legal,my son is finally on the road.
When I bought my new car back in sept 2008, my son was about to take his driving test.

Never thinking for one moment that it would be another year before he actually passed.
I did begin to wonder if I had made a mistake by keeping my old car but its worked out really well.
A part from the obvious reasons for wanting to pass his test , work had also offered him a promotion and a full time job if he passed his test.
So its celebrations all round and I get my beloved bike back too , though after a year of commuting its not quite the same 🙁
