I hung on and hung on, hoping when I renewed it I would get a blue GB one, but ran out of time and as I'm going away in November, so bit the bullet.
Talk about good service.

Moving services online is nothing to do with Brexit though? That's just progress. Credit where it's due though - a lot of the online government services are pretty good (taxing a car for example - much better than queuing in a Post Office to have an argument with the cantankerous old biddy behind the counter about whether your MOT and insurance are valid). The HMRC stuff is utter bobbins though.
