As is now traditional, here is a blog post with all of my passport photos. Well, kinda – this photo had to be taken to renew my driving licence after my seizure, and actually I don’t think I have scans of previous driving licence pics. Alarmingly in the 10 years since last time, a strip of ID photos from a booth cost double – £10 not £5 – but for the first time came with a code that means the government can directly use the digital version without you needing to send it in.

Below are 2024, 2015 (these pics are still just sitting on my desk, nine years later), 2005, 1996.

Further self-absorbed “passage of time” posts that established bloggers get to do:

• Further ravages of time (2015/2005/1996)
• More ravages of time (2011/2013)
• The ravages of time (2005/1996)
• Graduation pictures (2012/2002)
• What a difference a day makes (2006/1999)
