It's amazing how quickly they grow up.

When I met Laura, the girls were 11 & 9. In what seems a blink of an eye (17 years), we have 2 Grandchildren, Lewis 6 & Evie 3.

Also, I have an extra 4 stone and grey hair

Pass Plus was worth doing when my lad was 17. It cut his premium by nearly 50% on his Clio. Premium on the same car is still about the same for him 9 years later
