Drive

Just as well that I didn't pick 2007 to learn to drive at last. (Anyone who doesn't suffer from it cannot possibly understand the terror of sitting behind the wheel of a car which some of us experience. We willingly more than double the time that it takes us to get anywhere. Never mind the vagaries of public transport here in rural areas. But I will learn to drive one day. It is my Everest.)

So the details of all our learner-drivers were on a disc in Iowa, which has now gone missing? I cannot tell which is the more glorious contribution to efficiency and competence: globalisation, or the contracting out of public services. Can you?
