Same here, but I fear this my be the end of not having a photo one.
Just another con so you have to keep paying for a new photo every few years,
I will miss the look on peoples faces when they ask for your driving license take proof of identity.

I have to warn the staff at trackdays to be super gentle with mine when they check it in the morning (and to not add to the, erm, graffiti already on it!) I'm becoming embarrassed with it these days, TBH.
