In reply to keith-ratcliffe:
I just last week travelled to a large motor manufacturing site to do some work for another company.
They wanted Government photo ID, which I presume means driving licence or passport.
My driving licence is the old paper sort, I know I'm old, old and careful (it's starting to disintegrate but at present it's still holding together as one piece).
I have my driving licence in my passport, and some other photo cards for various safety organisations and other sites I work on. No combination was good enough for the bloke on the gate.
So that leaves me having to take my passport next time which I don't really fancy, I like to keep that for holidays, where I know it's safe!
Is there owt else I could use?
Just looked on their web site and there's no mention of what's required to gain access.
