Not quite the same, but I used to know a Dutchman who had to carry photo ID as a child during the Nazi occupation. Apparently he managed to get a photo with him sticking his tongue out. So that, whenever challenged, he was able to stick his tongue out at the official. This was the family story, anyway! Sadly, the actual card hadn't survived. |

I know one in India that has one. When I was married to the Slovakian au pair that worked for an Indian Doctor he told me that he took he driving test with his blind Dad sat in the back seat and for just a small extra charge (in cash) the examiner gave his Dad a driving licence. Interestingly blind folk have no driving license. I've had similar issues at other stores recently, and luckily they are happy to use my disabled taxicard, otherwise they would be stuffed. When I read the original question I had an evil thought that a picture of the scout hut was fine then..grin. Brian -- Adam |
