For the over-60s, bus passes can act as ID cards.

And those over 64 (born in the UK before Feb 1952) will already have
Identity cards which they were required to carry with them by law up

********. I have no ID card and have never been required to carry one

I am not qualified to comment on the state of your genitalia, but I do
know about the National Registration Act 1939. If you were a british
subject and alive at any time between the end of September 1939 and
February 1952 you would have been required to register and to carry the
identity card that was issued to you until feb 1952. As with Charles,
my identity card was issued a week or so after the registration of my
birth.

When my mother sold her house, she sorted out lots of old documents, and
gave my my identity card. I still have it. Brownish cardboard-type
material - but no photo, as I was an infant. The adult ID documents I've
seen, did have photos.

I have my father's old one - it had no photograph.
