My daughter turned 17 last September and started work straight away. Passed her driving test on Tuesday (taught by me ofc) and just came round to show me her first car that she paid for and insured (for the year, in one hit) all herself.

@theoddbin mines doing the same. Should pass July. Has saved for car plus the child trust fund last Labour gov set up for kids born in 2004 will help with insurance. Not financially possible for me to help him so I'm glad of that. Notice sodding tories have never set kids up for something 18 years later other than misery! Good news about your daughter. Good luck to her 🤗 xx
@Baggashite She has big targets. Wants to study medicine at Kings or Imperial College. So happy for her. To say the least, 'my work here is done!'
@theoddbin well done. My gas the spirit of freedom in him, he works at maccie d's, goes to college, drives and goes to the gym. Doesn't know what he wants to do yet. Travel hopefully before brexit forbids it all or makes it way less spontaneous.
