    it depends where you live in the uk 3 months is often spoke of these days and that could just be to tell you that you need a medical others have sent the forms off and told in weeks they have been moved

    coastie - phone them back and explain again and tell them you will need a taxi. They should refund your taxi fares. You will need to get a receipt.
