Hi Pat
I have just renewed my blue badge (they last three years) and still had to fill in the 70 odd pages lol, never knew about a single page one all I know was she said (lady in blue badge dept) that if I have a Mac Nurse it will come through faster as it was only a phone call for them to make (i dint have a mac nurse and still dont have one) so it was a letter to my Dr for him to confirm I had MM, second one was fill in same form and a Nurse at the blue badge Dept said yes if he had it three years ago (confirmed by his Dr then he still has it) ha ha.
When you get it dont forget your free bus pass yep free, and mine covers me for free travel on the train (I live in Scunthorpe) from Cleathorpes to Doncaster and those in our area.
Good Luck with it all its well worth its money even though the Hospitals still make you pay to park, but I park on Yellow lines outside the hospital and Bu&&er they payment he he
Love Tom "Onwards and Upwards" xx
