Other then giving your self a vasectomy - or wearing a condom though out the marriage, How would you realistically stop them getting pregnant if they wanted to.

I don't think any of them seem to work--- most anywhere, there was an ex-PM from Thailand who had an arrest warrant out when he skipped bail---- but manage to wander into the UK ...then decided he would buy one of the football teams there. A bit latter His Sister jump bail and headed for London.

Don't know why..................... Keir Starmer's early release scheme - as one inmate is re-arrested within SECONDS of getting out---- https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13840277/Former-senior-police-chiefs-warn-Britain-faces-new-crime-wave-thousands-prisoners-free-Keir-Starmers-early-release-scheme-one-inmate-arrested-SECONDS-getting-out.html

Agree 100% ---its save me a lot of time --no proof of residency for driving license etc many other things--and it took about 90 minutes to get.

As mentioned-- its more like a debit card as you have (usually a separate account) where you have the money deposited I put 100K in-you then get to chose what % you want to pay back each month---I went for the 100% pay back, so there are no real charges. its handy Hire cars Book most foreign hotels etc. Security is good, every time I use it my watch/phone alerts me that I am---and if its a large amount they want me to confirm. If you do succeed in getting one--I really recommend the Air Asia card. (mainly BKK Bank do that one) just showing it allows you to board first - it really doesn't take a lot of using before you are getting free drinks and upgrade seats especially if you use it to book air fares. I didn't have any of the things mentioned work permit etc etc , but I know things have changed a lot re bank accounts.

After living here that long, a pink ID card would save you all these problems--- I dont know why some people are negative about it--- I find its getting more & more useful as time goes on. In answer to your question--if you had a card --then no you dont need any other proof of residence , just show it and get your license.

A feature wall makes all the difference --as sometimewoodworker is showing you above, but I am just not keen on the color scheme in that post. I have gone for the softer colors on 3 walls then a strong Grey-- (grey seems to be the in color at the moment) Its worth going into the paint dep at the bigger stores (home pro etc) picking up their color scheme leaflets as they show different versions of it in homes. https://www.modsy.com/design-ideas/accent-wall

One day, the wife comes home with a spectacular diamond ring. "Where did you get that ring?" her husband asks. "Well, she replies, "My boss and I played the lottery and we won, so I bought it with my share of the winnings." A week later, his wife comes home with a long shiny fur coat. Where did you get that coat?" her husband asks. She replies "My boss and I played the lottery and we won again, so I bought It with my share of the winnings." Another week later, his wife comes home, driving a flaming red Ferrari.......You guessed it: Her share of the lottery winnings.... That night, the wife asks her husband to run her a nice warm bath while She gets undressed. When she enters the bathroom, she finds that there is barely enough water in the bath to cover the bath plug. "What the <deleted> is this?" she asks her husband. "Well," he replies, "We don't want to get your frickin’ lottery ticket wet, do we??
